Still never been to Whiteface so that tops the list. Also would like to hit Stowe, and Burke is still alluding me.

I'll list the same ones as I probably did last year -- Smuggs and Sugarloaf. Also, after my aborted attempt to go to Tux, I hope to do that. Of the three, I think Tux is the one with some possibility. I doubt I'm going to go way off to Sugarloaf. If I continue do to a reasonable amount of my VT skiing through the ski club I joined, then Smuggs isn't especially likely. I'm happy with the days I've been getting the past couple years in the MRV and Stowe.

I plan to add a minimum of 2 new areas to my list this year. Last year my plan for 2-3 new turned into 8, so I'm hopeful this year too.
  • Smuggs and Bolton Valley are definites
  • Camelback, Plattekill, Gore, Magic, Bretton Woods, Blue, Elk, Butternut, BE, Jiminy are real possibilities esp as gas continues to rise

I wouldn't mind trying out Tremblant, Mont Blanc, Solitude, Brighton, Burke, Smuggs, Jiminey Peak, and Berkshire East this coming season if time/situation allows for it. I'm sure I can try and couple of them, but I doubt I'll get to all of the this season. I will definitely be checking out Portillo in early Sept though, so at least I can cross one new place off my list for the new season.

I'm there at least 2 to 3 days lately. just trying to keep up with HPD is worth the trip alone. Also helps that we have a place to stay up there. It's also a great place to start the season. 1/2 a run is bigger than Hunter's full run.

Oh Le Massif is on my doubtful, but hopeful list.

There really are only four areas left on the East Coast that I haven't tried, but are on the must ski list in my lifetime: Burke, Whiteface, Gore and Le Massif

I had a good time skiing with you and your wife last time. I hope we can do it again.

Dude, you better make it to Berkshire East! :razz:

Anyone looking for a tour of the BEast, look me up. Patroller with the white Leedom helmet either on tele or alpine gear....

Have never skied in the State of Maine- would like to get to one of the big 3 this coming season - Saddleback, Sunday River, or Sugarloaf. Would also like to hit Wildcat in NH, and Whiteface in NY.
