join your fellow AZ'ers this friday for some runs at one of southern vermont's finest: magic mountain. largely known for it's challenging terrain (magic has been voted most challenging in southern vermont), magic is often overlooked for it's fine groomed cruising terrain which is top to bottom every run. i was at the mountain this past saturday, and conditions were excellent. don't let my pictures scare you, i only photographed the narliest of the trails. :)

let's plan on meeting up on the second floor of the lodge at 9AM on friday morning. that's where the bar is for those interested in post ski festivities :beer: please post here if you plan on attending.

i will have at least one comp ticket on my person at the time, so if you are unsure if you want to ski or not, an offer to make free turns at an excellent mountain is now on the table. first to respond takes it. additionally, please post below if you have an extra comp to offer up so we can pin down if we have enough for everyone interested in attending.

I'm not sure if I'll have an extra comp ticket since someone may be coming with me. I'll post here when I find out...

I'm in. I'll be there by 9am Friday. Very psyched a new mountian for me. Sounds like rivercOil will help give a lay of the land. I've seen both threads, still not sure of attendance. RivercOil,Bvibert, Teach Ski, anyone else?

Jim G. is away on business until Thursday, but he said he'd be in for Friday. I'm pretty stoked to be going too, my first time also.

Kinda how Motley Crue got their name. As I understand it, some record exec saw them and said, "boy, what a motley-looking crew..." :lol:

Yup, quite a bunch ;)

50 Years from now when AlpineZone has completely taken over the skiing world that picture will be hanging in a museum somewhere with the caption "This motley looking bunch was the first ever official AlpineZone skiing gathering". And all the little kids will be asking their parents what motley means... ;) :lol:

At the moment, I'm planning on being there. I'll even try to be there at 9, though it'll mean leaving the house 6-ish...ouch.
