I got out about 30 times last season. It is the most i have ever gone in a single season even with the horrible season. Next year i hope for 40.

My last 3 seasons:
2004: 21
2005: 27
2006: 31
My goal for this year is once again 30. 07-08 will probably have much higher numbers as I'll be able to drive more than this year. I might have more Wachusett this year than in past years, but my north count will be the same or probably lower than last year, when I had 12 days away from Wachusett.

i should be able to bang out 50-60. my highest to date was 39, but that was before moving up to StJ and having a pass. the pass really helps because i will go ski on weekends that just were not worth it before.pending i stay healthy this year :lol: 50 should be pretty easy.

I got 43 days in last year which was a personal high for me, but this year Im hoping for 50+. Cant wait to get out to Wyoming though in a year, anything under 100 is going to be a total bust and Ill obviously have to spend more than one year there.
I just hope to hit 20 days this year. With a family a growing business and living on an Island, 20 days is not easy or cheap to do.

50 - 60 is pretty good!
"KIA" AHM will get about 40 - 50 days this year:
25 - 30 east (bush, Jay, MRG, bolton)
11 Canada: Sorcerer lodge (back country week) and Nelson with Val Halla powder cats or White Grizzley
6 Europe: La Grave and maybe a day in the Alp d'Huez back country.
Average is about 45/season, about a million verts, mostly in trees, bumps, and backcountry.AHM
For the aspiring backcountriers: Try Rogers Pass with a couple lift served days at Kicking horse that should provide some pretty fine terrain.

Im shooting for about 60. I'm hoping for about 15-20 up in Vermont, mostly at Ascutney but with a few sundays a Bromley or Stratton (cheaper with a mc pass). The other 40 days will be at the local hill (mountain creek) since I can drive up there every day after school. We'll see how it goes, I could die tomorrow.
My record is 45 days. Last season was 43. I'm hoping for about the same....
I have seriously looked into that. The cost of living on the Island crazy and its always a hassel to get across the LI sound to CT. It always comes back to the business though. We have a good thing going on the Island and would be taking a huge chance to try to relocate...So we stay.... My town has a great school system, lots of open space and water all around you and its just a really fun place to be during the summer. I can deal with 4 hrs to Jiminy or 7 to the Bush for a bit longer I guess.Bob R said:

Listen to me I got a hair cut last night. Been at the same job 15 years. Only have owned one house. Practice what....
Ya but you live in NH. I always have my eye out for business opportunities in ski country maybe some day.Bob R said:

It is just to hot for me any further south. I could move further north. Living in NH allows me to work and Bost. Kind of getting big city and country easily.

I give you a lot of credit...your commutes must be pretty long if you are going all the way into the city...Bob R said:
Not sure if the rest of the family agrees, but I'd definitely have no problem with moving further north...but my commute is long enough as it is...:-?

Hammer, you just don't get to pay the high property tax.
I could not live my life the way I choose if I lived closer to Bost. Housing would cost more than I can afford and I think I would have less privacy.

Agree...I had some initial concerns about living 40+ miles from the city (and 25 miles from work) when I moved in 11 years ago but I'm really glad to have the space.Bob R said:Hammer, you just don't get to pay the high property tax.

Main thing I'm glad about is that I can do some telecommuting...allows me to wait out the rush hour traffic.
Going back on topic, the best I've been able to do is about 10 - 12 trips the past few years. I'd like to get in about 20 or more trips this season, but a lot of those may have to be short weeknight visits to local hills...
