I have this wild @$$ idea of "ski 89". I would make a day of skiing venues right off of 89, maybe 1 hour at each. Starting off at Cochrans, then down to Suicide, then to Whaleback, (Sunapee and Pats optional) then finally Macintyre in Manchester NH
unfortunately, the weather has been too good for such a frivolous pursuit, plus it would be a lot of bucks.. Then again, I never left practical matters stay in the way of fun. I would probably run out of hours, maybe not since Whale, Pats have night skiing, dunno about Mac's.

Unfortunately, nowhere. Perhaps Sundown, but other than that...

With me completely going on my own this year as far as skiing goes, money suddenly becomes more of a restriction and with my gas-guzzling Explorer, I can't really go far too often. Costs me $15 in gas just to go to Wachusett and back and Beast was nearly $30.

So far this year: Bretton Woods, the "rest" of Waterville Valley beyond just Valley Way, Snowbird, and Alta. I expect the rest of the year to be repeats of places I've been before.

So far new: Ascutney, Whaleback, Smuggs, MRG, Sugarloaf, Shawnee Peak

Still working on Magic and Tuckerman

If my objecting wife had not been behind the wheel last night we would have stopped at Spruce on the way back from Sugarloaf. It was free from 6 to 9. This would have nicely mirrored the day we drove back from Smuggs in crappy weather and skied a little at Whaleback on the way home (which was also free from 6 to 9 that night).

[WWF-VT]

Middlebury Snow Bowl

 

[kingslug]

Heavenly, Kirkwood, and hopefully Sugarbush,oh and maybe Tucks, and maybe Gore if I get up to WF again.
Panorama and Kicking Horse where great as well.

 

[kingslug]

Whiteface, Windham and Belleayre are likely this year.

Still planning on going....great spring skiing to be had there.

 

[WJenness]

I hit Crotched one night so far... and want to go back for more... that has been the only adventure into "new" ski areas for me so far.

I'd like to hit Sugarbush on the AZ day, but I'm not sure that that is going to happen this year.

I've got my free Stratton ticket to use at some point too... (Does anyone know when they typically close?)

New hills

Sunapee, Bolton Valley, and Sugarloaf

 

[bvibert]

I hit Sugarbush South for the first time this year. I'll be back.

 

[severine]

I hit Sugarbush South for the first time this year. I'll be back.

It's looking like that may be the only new place for me this year. I had such high hopes.

 

[BushMogulMaster]

Copper Mountain

[Grassi21]

Tremblant fell throuh. :-(

But I have Sugarbush and MRG to look forward to next month.

 

[hammer]

Think it will be zero for me this season...:-(

I still have the Stratton free ticket but this weekend's out (have to pay the family dividend) and I have plans for skiing for the next three weekends. Late March/early April may be a possibility if I can get out on my own...

 

[skibum9995]

Mount Snow, Ragged, Cranmore, Pico, Bretton Woods.
