What new ski areas did you ski this season?

[awf170]

Gulf of Slides tomorrow, w00t.

I hate you...

So whos going up, seems like there are a bunch of talk of GoS tomorrow. JimG, NHPH, Sled, powder8s?

I wish the weather wasn't looking so sketchy else I would probably be up there. A 2:45 drive each way to maybe get rained out is not my dads idea of fun.

Geoff,

Monarch used to be my home mountain. My in-laws have a cabin just outside of Salida, so I get up there a few times a year. Did you get to try out the new terrain in Mirkwood Basin?

 

[Terry]

Bretton Woods was the only new resort for me this year. Next year? hopefully a tour of Loon from Bobr, venturing into Vt. Never skied anyplace in Vt so any would be new to me. Got the ASC pass alredy so probably one of them.:beer:

Seems like it would be easier to hook up than it is Terry. Next year it will happen.

Terry--in a word, Burke.

Terry you could stay with me less than a hour. Maybe a Loon Burke Combo.

So how was Snowbasin this year - must have been tons of snow. Strawberry Bowl is soooooooo fantastic. The last time I was there was before the Olympics and they were building the new lodge - is it nice?

 

[BeanoNYC]

Cannon was new for me. I skied there the day aftere x-mass and for the AZ outing.. I had hiked it before, but never skied it. I would like to try Mount snow. Its on my pass I hope to Join Treeskier there next year.

If you go to MS without a proper notification to us boys in the South for a meet up, you will be promptly beaten up.

Let's see...RISkier, Noski, Andyzee...and erraaahhhh...Starbuck *sorry...WWF-VT?...lousy alzheimer's*


I will keep SB in mind for a future trip. Here's a question...how far is SB from Killington? It's likely we will get invited back to in-law's place for New Years. We won't ski there due to our previous experience described above. Was considering Pico instead (close, less $...more easy terrain). Would consider SB if the drive were reasonable.

Sky- First: K is an hour or just under (depends on weather) south of SB on Rt 100. Second: I may be a noski now, but I actually did ski about 8 times in my short foray into the sport. I learned at SB and only skied there. I found lots of green/blue that fit my ability and was never afraid I would not make it back to the bottom. Also, fwiw, I skied once at MRG (Eric made me) and made it top to bottom without falling or causing bodily harm to other skiers....and I sorta liked it! DO IT!!!

Settle down Cowgirl. A little later in the thread I suggested an outing.:flag: :beer:
I'll probably get verbally abused anyway. I can live with that.

BeanoNYC........ I edited my post just for you AndyZee so it was even easier to read. jk.

 

[teachski]

Didn't get to any new areas for me this year, but I did go to:
Stratton and I had not been there since the 80's (before the village). It was a gorgeous ski day.
Sunday River and I hadn't been there since the early 90's(to ski anyhow)

How come less then an hour, you should at the very least let him stay the night.

Didn't make it to Mirkwood. It had gotten wind scoured so it wasn't worth the short walk. Next time...
