Where do you plan on going this year - 2010/2011

[bigbog]

Got my pass to Sugarbush lined up in May. Going to be there for certain. I also have tickets to my old town hill...the Lyndon Outing Club. Need to get back there. The last time I skied there was in 2003.

I am hoping to get to Burke, Sugarloaf, and Sunday River. Need to ski with Bob R and Snowmonster again.

...And...to add another to the list TTB...I'll be a paid customer at Sugarloaf this winter, with the headlights on Saddleback for powder(whenever).

I've got passes to Shawnee Peak, Sunday River, Sugarloaf, and Loon so those are definates. Need to hit Saddleback again this year and would like to maybe hit up Burke for the first time. Also maybe do a bit of backcountry skiing if conditions allow. Looking like it may be a very slow winter at work so I may have more time to wander around. Will have to play it by ear.

 

[gorgonzola]

passes to blue and greek peak, will hit whiteface and would like to a Stowe/MRG/Sugarbush tour on the way back thru. kid's college tuition wil probably put westen trip on the backburner. wil hit a few other pokey spots maybe camelback. really hoping for a good snow year to get more xc/bc in - had such a blast last year!

 

[madriverjack]

I will make it to
MRG
Killington
Sundown
Sugarbush
I'm gonna try and make it to
Magic and I have a free place to stay in Salt Lake so if I make that trip it's gotta be Alta.

I'm really looking forward to this season as I expect to have scheduling flexibility and money saved up to be able to take advantage of it. Mainly will do my usual snow-chasing, with strong bias toward Magic and weekdays at MRG. Beyond day-trip range, would like to return to Saddleback and check out the new glades at Sugarloaf.

Among places I've not yet been, Black (NH) and Camden Snow Bowl top the to-do list in the right circumstances.

Also planning to earn more turns locally if we get enough snow down here. In fact I just scouted out some nice, fairly steep yet reasonably open trees today while waiting for my son's soccer game to start ... also laying plans to clear a bramble-choked slope at another good local place.

Finally, have gone beyond merely fantasizing to checking out logistics/costs of a Utah trip, focusing on Alta. Hope to be able to pull that off.

Just add snow ...

I have purchased a bunch of discounted tickets for 1st timers. If you guys make it happen there’s one with your name on it along with a free tour. I don’t work for the mountain but they are fully aware of this & it is completely legit. Just an idea for a little grass roots marketing, simple as that. 1st timers only, honor system applies.

I’ll probably make this its own thread as the season gets closer as long as the mods are cool with that.

If I missed anyone or if any other 1st timers have an interest, just let me know or look for a new thread when the season starts. Just a heads up & thanks for the interest.

Thanks for the offer RG. I will try to remember this when the season starts. Sounds cool. Come on snow. Fire in fire place going right now

Have a "Bold and Beautiful" pass. So Cannon and occaisionally Bretton Woods will be where I get my fix of......uhh......daytime drama.

Also have a 4th grader in the Ski NH earn your turns program, so planning to tour around while my pass is blacked out. Will see what the package offers, but certainly plan on hitting up close bys like WV, Loon, and Ragged. Would also like to see Wildcat, Black and Gunstock.

Subject to revision after I see what the CHAD card is giving out at the Boston show:

Passholder
Wachusett - Again. Every year I say this is the last winter I will be stuck in Mass., and every year it's not true.

Definite Day or Two
Butternut
Bousquet
Jiminy
Burke
Magic
Jay
Owl's Head (new)
Wildcat

On the Fence
Stratton, if I can scam cheap/free tickets
Ragged is always a storm chasing option if the driving sucks and I want to bail off 93
Killington would entice me if they open ahead of the pack
Friend has a condo at Sunday River (that would be a new) and I may score an invite

Definite Trip
Sugarbush

Maybe Trips
Sugarloaf in the spring?
Don't have a place to stay in Summit County anymore so anything out west will require $$$.
Would love to try Le Massif (new), but scheduling that trip seems hard.
If some money fell out of the sky would probably try Big Sky (new).
