Get 2 of those TB. What a bargain.

You got it chief--one for you and one for me!!! Why nt make it three? :lol:

I just think that the highest price and most blackouts is just pure arrogance on their part...

JMHO.

I will be skiing there once this season on free vouchers...never have been.

It's the Bronze pass here too BobR,
With a season pass...you don't feel like you've gotten cheated out of mega_$$$ when it gets crowded and you'd like to do something else. Leaving @noon on the weekends is not a once in a lifetime occurance :lol:

Or spend the afternoon in the bar with a sore hammy.

Bob R,
Hey..same here, maybe we can get a bunch of Zoners over to SundayRiver sometime, or even up at the Loaf Before everything's melted in April! 8)

RossiSkier,
I'm really getting into using the backcountry touring gear that MichaelJ has been using, am seeing some absolutely great stuff this season besides my AT setup!

BigBog I'm at the River around 20 times a year. I usually bump into Ga2ski and thaller1 sometimes Oz. We try to get together as a SR group as well. A few other regulars from that board are social and ski together. Powhound, Gamway73,Terry and I have all skied together up there. The loaf... I'm hoping for more than just the Reggae trip, but it is alot of work. I guess its relative. I'm lazy. April there still was a ton of snow at the Loaf.
Look forward to hooking up Maybe at a SR group outing. One is kind of in the plans for December

No season passes here, but I picked up a set of the SkiNH passes. I'll be going to Sunapee and Pats Peak a number of times this season...

I considered the Threedom passes but I'd like to see how a trip to Waterville works out this season before I commit to going further north on a regular basis. The limited pass looked like a pretty good deal...

Yeah, factor in the additional cost of gas and the extra miles to WV would be alot...it is a hike from MA.

Im gettin a pass to Wintergreen... Oh, thats right, no one here cares about the mid-a.

Anyway, I get outta school at 3:00pm, and the pass is good from 12:30pm Sunday to closing Friday night. And at $160, thats a steal. Wintergreen has 1,000' vertical and peaks at a lil over 4,000'. They get their fair share of snow for southern standards at about 75". But their snowmaking system makes up for it. There are some slopes that are left ungrromed after snowmaking on slow days. Gotta love them whales.

With the pass, I can get there at 5:00pm. Nice lil after-school session.

oh then it isnt bad then, my day is 8 to 2:30. So thats actually pretty short. I think starting at 10 am would be pretty kinda dumb, its cool to sleep late. but getting home at 4:30 is horrible

My school just asked for a grant to go 8 to 5 :eek:
