If you consider 3.2% alcohol beer real! Personally I like my beer 6.5 % or above =)

I'm sure the skiing will out weigh the liquor laws though. Have fun!

I'm bit of alcoholic and had no problem of getting good drinks, beer sold in Supermarket is low content alcohol, but bars serve good stuff now, and state liquor stores are everything where. And since I been their a few years ago laws have been passed to for drinkers and tourists, probably for money, but maybe I am lying so do not go to Utah, one less person to be going after the goods, lol.

A couple of friends of mine are going to Bretton Woods on St. Pats and I think I'll join.

They're doing a weird thing: having a BBQ that day for passholders but, if you're a mid-week passholder (like me), you have to drop $70 to ski also. The odd thing is, after that day, mid-week passes are good on weekends also for the rest of the season. Seems like Sunday, the first day mid-week passes are good, would have been a more considerate day to hold the passholders event.

I sent an email to see if that's an oversight but have received no response.

Well, I received a response. They said the midweek passholders are welcome to use their pass to ski on St. Pats day! My friends called about this earlier in the week and got a different response. I don't know if there was a misunderstanding or if they responded to customer complaints. Either way, good move by BW!

Foggy is an understatement. Loved the bump trail right under the summit lift but had to wait several times just to get enough visabilty to go. Great fun but your right its going fast and temps are not going down anytime soon. Get up here this weekend or you may be out of luck.
