The "Sugarbush Thread"

[Kingslug20]

Have to see what's left after 3 days of rain..

 

[cdskier]

If I was 6 days away from hitting 100 and SB is open for 6 more days, I'd be there even if it was just Steins just so I could say I hit 100...

 

[Kingslug20]

K is also an option..got 2 more days on the pass...SS will be open into may

 

[cdskier]

Oh if you have K days left on your pass that makes it even easier...can pick 4 of the remaining 6 days at SB and then do 2 more at K after SB closes.

Big Snow in New Jersey would be another option to pad your stats if you need a day or two to reach 100

NJ.....oy

Sugarloaf too if you have Ikon and don’t mind the drive. They’re open until May 1 and had 97 trails open today. Tempting…

 

[Kingslug20]

97.....
5 hour drive at least..

97.....
5 hour drive at least..

Not worth the drive in my opinion…mid-season pow day maybe, but not for late spring leftovers

 

[SenorQuesadilla]

I'm normally not one for arbitrary number goals...but you have to get to 100

 

[Kingslug20]

It has to stop.....raining!

mist but no actual rain today at K. Surface is good, visibility not great, goggles off kind of day.

Go for 100 Slug. It's a cool accomplishment. Maybe some day I will get there.

 

[cdskier]

I'd still like to hit 50 one year. If I had been able to get out on Friday afternoons this year, I likely would have finally done that. Oh well, maybe next year.

if you do it once, you will never have to do it again as you will have earned your bragging rights. Plus, it will be nagging at you all summer if you miss by only a day or two!

That is realy surprising CD. I figured you were defiantly up more than me. You gotta schedule mystery meetings from 2 to 4 on Friday's to block you calander. LOL

if not longer… You should go for 101 (easy for me to say), that way you can say you skied more than 100 days. I’m currently at exactly 50 and looking to squeeze in at least one more day so I can say “more than 50” LOL. Then at 53 you can say you averaged more than once per week over the course of the year, including summer.

 

[Kingslug20]

6 more days will not be easy...pretty much have to hit K..only 2 days leftt on the pass..then SB friday..
It won't bother me..anything over 90 is a lot..

Killington 100 day club is pretty cool, although I like more variety. Lot of the regulars at KZone are members

“As part of the club, guests receive an exclusive hat, sticker, commemorative poster, a private party at the Wobbly Barn, and some serious bragging rights. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the club, and 20 skiers are expected to join the 10 Year Club with at least 1,000 days of skiing and riding over the last decade at Killington Resort.”

Hah...I have my calendar blocked all year on Friday afternoons from 1 to 5...still doesn't stop people from scheduling things there at times.

This year the challenge was a co-worker left the end of Jan and I had to take over all his work. So there was a substantial workload increase and especially when I was just taking it over I didn't want to just disappear for a few hours. Although to be honest, there were also a good number of Fridays where I remember thinking the weather wasn't great so I wasn't disappointed in not making it out.
