You know part of me is a bit put off by the $49 ticket rate when da bush is only charging $29. Granted, two different areas and free market society, but my guess is the conditions and terrain offerings at SB are as good or better.

I'll probably be shooting for the $35 afternoon rate and ski from noon til' four. It's a near four hour haul for me to get there, so an early start as it is and I just don't see the value in the extra $14 by shooting for early turns.

$49 is a bit steep. I'm gonna be there like 11:30 - 3:30 or so. I'd rather do sugarbush but i cant swing it time wise. my wife is working sunday night so i have to be home by 5:30, which would make the bush impossible.

Don't mind him. He's just trying to steal everyone's thunder. He must be real excited about that new sleeping bag or something... :razz:

I apologize I did not mean to cause confusion, was just making a suggestion. This will not happen again (except for Greg's threads). What time would you like to start my bump lessons.

Well call me the biggest jerk goin for proposing this trip, but I'm going to have to bail

4 hour drive vs 1.5

$49 vs FREE

With a looming condominium purchase this summer and a need to save a few bucks wherever I can for it, I'd be silly not to go to the River.

Ya'll can give me as much chit as you like. I deserve it and I'm somewhat dissappointed as I was looking forward to meeting many of you.

Looks like I'll be meeting Bob R, the mayor of SR instead. Besides, I hear he's a better bump skier than 2knees anyway :razz:

Don't blame you. I'd consider doing the Sunday River as well if I didn't have to be back at work in Jersey on Monday.

Dude, thats a no brainer, slam dunk, done deal. And any other cliche you can come up with. Free and 1/3 of the gas?

Enjoy and we'll have to catch up next year.

Definitely

I'm looking forward to being a bit more centralized next season. I've enjoyed living in Maine, but it's put Vermont a little bit out of the day trip range without major motivation. Next season it should be far easier to meet up with folks for those outings.

Hope Mt. Snow has the goods for you all this Sunday

I don't blame you one bit for your decision. I'd have done the same thing.

BTW, where are you moving to?
