New ski areas for 2009-10?

[Smellytele]

When are you going? We have a Stowe time share. Decided to try to swap it for somewhere out West this year. Ended up swapping for a Vail time share in mid January. Found cheap air tickets. Lift tickets are so ridiculous we decided it made a lot of sense to buy the Epic pass and go back to CO in March. We'll likely stay in Frisco in March. We've done most places in UT but this will be our first ski trip to CO. I'd really like to try Burke this year.

A-basin and Copper are great in that area. The front of Vail is rather boring. The back is fun.

Possibly Tahoe (got a buddy out there who wants me to come visit), maybe Vail (A friend's family has got a place out there and there was some idle chatter about a trip out that way).

I'll probably shoot for one of the two for this year.

Going in March. Have free plane tickets and lots of Marriot point. The tickets are on my mind and I am looking for some sort of deal. My good friends brother is out there hopefully he will have some connections, If not thats OK he is going to be our guide for the week. Thought about the 599 pass but I think I can do better

For a week or so you can definitely do better. Our plan is to try to get 12-14 days on the pass.

I'd drop DV and add Solitude, bu that's just me.

I second that, although I snowboard and had a fantastic powder day at Solitude (rained in park city that night before)

On my todo this year:
Wildcat, Black, Saddleback, Magic, Sugarbush, Burke

Maybe Copper or Aspen, depends on if I go Epic or tix

I added Catamount and Elk to my areas skied.

Added Saddleback to the list Sunday. Mightily impressed despite the line situation.

Hit Black yesterday, for the first time in 25 years. I'd consider that somewhat new, except for the fact that seemingly nothing has changed there over that time span .

 

[Smellytele]

Burke, Tenney and will be adding Stowe finally 3/21-22

Ragged, Pat's Peak, Catamount, Breckenridge, ABasin, Keystone.

Had hoped to add more new ones this year...ended up with just 3...actually had set an ambitious goal of 10 new little areas this season. That didn't happen!! Maybe next year I can get to my 70th mountain!

61. Nashoba
62. Yawgoo
63. Mad River Glen

Added Plattekill to the list this season and looking forward to checking Loon, Saddleback, Sugarloaf, and possibly Tucks off the list later this month.

In addition to Saddleback Sunday, also added Ragged, Mount Snow, and Nashoba. May add Pico to the list.
