What are you looking forward to most this season?

[Greg]

For me, I'm looking forward to a number of things:

• Getting back up to the MRV to ski the 'Bush and MRG
• Hitting the seeded bumps at Sundown
• Meeting some new AZers and skiing with some I already know
• Tracking all the big dumps with "The Official Storm Discussion Threads"...

But most of all, this season I'm most excited about getting my 3 year old out on skis. My goal is to get her on snow a dozen days.

It’s hard to narrow it down to what I look forward to the most. It will all star with the rehire clinic at my mountain. I’ll see all the folks I haven’t seen since the end of the season, and all of the talk will be about skiing of course. Everybody will be talking about what they want to do this season, from places to go, to techniques to master, to the number of days they hope to get out. It’s a great revitalization, being immersed in a total ski culture environment after a long off season is very cathartic.

After that I’ll be looking forward to skiing places I haven’t been to in a while or ever:
MRG, Sugarbush, Saddleback, Sugarloaf. A trip to Panorama in B.C. and maybe a level two exam.

I'm looking forward to Burton buying MRG and making it snowboarders only!! It's true. I read it on the interweb.

 

[2knees]

i just want to get more days in. other than that, i'm looking forward to a weekly visit to sundown, and hopefully a couple of days at smuggs. always wanted to go there and havent yet.


Tin Woodsman, that is a GREAT avatar. I was at that game but couldnt see crisp make the catch because we were sitting in center field, way over towards the monster.

lol you guys can butt your pinstriped noses into anything. it was a great catch. it has/had nothing to do with the yankees whatsoever.

oh and to keep it on track, i think i'm gonna start my 2 yo (she'll be 3 in feb) late next season also. greg, keep us updated on your progress.

I am looking forward to living in ski country (almost) and breaking my record of 33 days out in one season, which should not be too hard as my new office is located less then 25 miles from Ski Sundown.

 

[ga2ski]

Hoping for as many days as last year. It might be tough with my new son. oh and getting him on skis, hopefully next spring. Kids can ski at 9 months , right?

Other highlights include:
Fall festival at Sunday River, when i get my new picture taken for my season pass and being able to see everyone I haven't seen all summer.
The first flakes of the season
The first accumulation of the season
The first day on skis
Powder days (aka sick days)
Beating Bob down the hill while I'm on my tele gear and he is on his fixed-gripped boards

It sounds as if we will have a good number of AZers at Sundown this year.

I'm looking forward to using my new skis and boots and exceeding my goal of 20 days. Wifey will be out of commission this season so I will be putting in a lot of day trips at Sundown, Mohawk, Jiminy, Butternut, and Catamount. I'm hoping to do a long weekend in Northern VT with a few college buds.

 

[WWF-VT]

Better weather, more snow and to exceed the 25 days I got in last year at Sugarbush

 

[thaller1]

I'm looking forward to a new season with good health, more gatherings with ski buds and more SNOW!!!

Additionally, I'm looking forward to the possibility of 2 trips out West... Utah and Wyoming!

 

[John84]

Getting my youngest brother out skiing (8 years old)
Getting back to Jay
Convincing my parents that a trip out west would benefit not only me, but them as well
Skiing more than 10 days (winters in the Mid-A blow)

 

[riverc0il]

lots of powder, sick lines, tight trees and lots of them. making more videos. and other things i can not currently openly discuss but will share eventually.

 

[kingslug]

[andyzee]

Enjoying some good times in the snow with my wife.

My goal is to get her on snow a dozen days.

What will you do, if she doesn't like it?

 

[Marc]

Ski bunnies.

 

[Greg]

What will you do, if she doesn't like it?

Should I even respond to such a silly question? :roll:
