Unless you don't have $29. Or someone to watch the kids.

Have fun, guys! Jealous!

Someone needs to wear a "I wish I was at Gregdown" t-shirt.

"Epic" should be used if the weather forecast was calling for two feet of fresh dry powder, sunny, temps in the 30's and Ripcord snow is thigh deep.

"Epic" and "sunny and 70's" should not be used in the same sentence

I reserve the term "epic" to be used if the weather forecast was calling for two feet of fresh dry powder, sunny, temps in the 30's and Ripcord snow is thigh deep.

To each his own.

Au contraire. There's nothing better than skiing in a long sleeve tee shirt & sunglasses. I just hope I don't run out of beer.

Something tells me if you do, that there just might be a brewery or 2 that would gladly bottle a few more for 'ya! :beer:

Even I will 100% completely disagree with the sentiment that spring corn and epic do not go hand and hand. However, 70s is likely not to be truly epic because the snow will turn into something worse than what people generally call "mashed potatoes".

I can't wait! :lol:

I'm with you Severine...2 kids that are done for the season. No way, no how was the response from them about going. And no one to watch them. Will probably still send the husband and the 1 willing kid. They are thinking of going Saturday due to the long ride back Sunday night and school/work the next morning.

We should probably meet up next season and swap child duties! You seem to sit out a quite a bit (as least it seems that way from 'out here').

 

[riverc0il]

I can certainly wait on 70*+. Honestly, if it hits 70, I'll probably call it a day. Not sure if you have ever skied on snow truly baking... but it is not good skiing, especially if it is getting mashed to death by multiple skiers. I have had very few experiences with this type of snow but I distinctly remember East Snowfields last year on the T4T slackfest and I stopped not due to fatigue but due to the snow being completely unsolidified (okay, partially fatigue after 5 runs :lol: but I could have kept going if conditions were good). Icky.
