Any trip report?

Although I suck at posting pics I'm going to make it a project tomorrow to get my phone pics posted with a trip report each day. I got home Thursday night was too busy Friday and skied Hunter today.

I have been skiing 54 years and I had no idea that the skiing in Quebec was this good. We had less than ideal conditions save for one epic corn harvest our third day of skiing. And still I could only describe the skiing as great. Big vertical, long steep bump trails and tree skiing everywhere.

We need reports (TR's) TB. Wife is headed out Tuesday and looks like she will get the goods with this storm. I don't get out till Friday and it looks like I miss the main show but I will enjoy anyway. Forecasts look a little iffy for the Colorado portion of the trip but they are computer generated and will hopefully be more white then wet (really not worried about that).

18 and I'm done (save some freak and huge dump). This is 10+ less than normal. And many of the "days" were truncated, on limited terrain etc. Sure there were some moments but overall this year was a zero out go 10 and I hope that all the winters to come are much, much better.

Well we finally hit 35 at Killington yesterday - the moving thing is killing me. Probably 1 or 2 days in New England then I will finish the season in Colorado. 40 will happen and 50 still in the cards.

Friday and Saturday at Jay Peak took me to day 5 and 6. I need to move North, or West!

Is there a reason you don't just relocate the Merrimack Valley or southern New Hampshire? If you have family ties it's really not that far. It shaves a solid hour or more off your drive to the mountains. It leaves you minutes from night skiing. And that region still has a strong economy with lots of jobs, even better than down where you are.

Well, the pay check, and time required to do the job so to speak keeps me in S.E. MA. Early Retirement, perhaps?

8 days total, looks like that's gonna be it. 7 at sugarbush and one at MRG but I think I really lucked out with the days I was there (although it didn't really seem like it at the time)
