This year's version of [thread="63524"]this thread[/thread]. I'm looking forward to a lot of things this season. Pretty typical list:
  • Skiing together with my wife and kids as a family more this year
  • Killington. Yep, I said it.
  • Sundown bumps and mogul comps
  • Skiing the MRV
  • Hitting Magic and Berkshire East after a dump
  • Skiing with AZers
  • Returning to the Loaf!
You?

  • More ski dates with the spouse (no grumpy teenagers)
  • Trip out west (first!)
  • Quality over quantity (since I don't get quantity anyway)

-Get out at least a few times this season, possibly to Mt. Baker on a trip to the in-laws for Xmas, even though I have a newborn at home now. Its going to limited for sure, but the best will have to be made of it.

Skiing lots of runs with my kids - and hopefully still being able to beat them down the hill by seasons end (If I can accomplish that this year then I'll atleast have the "excuse" of being 40 when one of my kids can finally out ski me during the '11-'12 season :) ;) :lol: )

I'm looking forward to riding with family/familiar faces.

I'm looking forward to skiing Maine

I'm looking forward to a fun ski safari out west, planning nothing, just going out and following the snow for a couple weeks, staying with friends, ex girlfriends, whoever has a couch and heat really.

Most of all looking forward to this year and next summer to be over with. This is a sacrificial winter for me, it's been a long time but this winter is about working, saving and setting myself up to ski like I have been able to for so many previous years. This time next year I will have a better idea of where and how the next few years will be spent. There will be lot's of great options I think

I'm down almost 25 pounds from the start of last season, 15 or so from the end of the season. So, looking forward to skiing while in better shape.

1) Some open time midweek for skiing...
2) Consistent temperatures, of the COLD kind...with enough natural stuff for off-resort skinning/hiking weekends.
