Blue Mountain 3.9.10
(sorry for the cell phone pics) So I made the trip out to Blue, using Root's directions to avoid the traffic on 78 as you enter PA, and made it in 1:21 on the way out and 1:29 on the way back, going a little slower with a stop for gas, but also less traffic.

Anyway, I was able to get the college discount; I'm not sure how the math worked, but my ticket was $16!!!! I skied for 3 hrs and...

Here is the shocking article:
http://blog.ctnews.com/teribuhl/2010/03/09/ex-rbs-trader-glover-sees-upstate-ny-investment-at-risk/
Anyone able to help shed some light on this guy. I spend 30+ weekends a year up in Windham and have never heard of James Glover, Real Estate Developer. He sounds like a real stud though.

Crotched 3/10/2010
Date(s) Skied: Wednesday Evening, March 10th, 2010
Resort or Ski Area: Crotched Mountain
Conditions: Hard pack, crust, loose granular
Trip Report:
Well, I gambled and lost. I was hoping that maybe, just maybe because of how warm it was today, I'd still find some soft bumps tonight. Not so.

Killington weds March 10, 2010
I have been up north for the past few days hitting magic then two days at killington here are some pictures and remarks for wed March 10, 2010
Completely awesome blue bird warm weather day, Killington has never skied so well, or at least in recent memory we started the day over on skye hitting ovation and superstar early then over to Killington where we made a quick trip to the summit, cat walk, power line and the royal flush trails were skiing great...

My Vermont Tour 2010 (Feb 28-March 7 - Caution longwinded but w/cool pics!)
So, I usually take my week skiing at Alta, but this year due to a few things, I was in Vermont. I left on the 27th and drove straight to Cuzzins and Mt. Snow, where my buddies were waiting for me. One lives up there full time and 2 others that I've known for years were there. My one buddy has a big, deep booming voice and 15 years ago would do a Doors Medley with Bruce Jacques, the Cuzzins' regular Sat. night entertainment. So, at one point, (after I downed a number of liquids) I jumped up on...
It's 10:30AM this Saturday in NH...
(had to steal that title)
Sunapee, Waterville, Gunstock... who will have the "least" crowded experience?
(Although the crowds are probably going to be horrendous most anywhere if Sunday is going to be a rainout - things are getting pretty desparate if I am considering skiing on a Saturday!)

In your experience who has the longest lift line and who has the shortest. Name the ski area and lift.

If I didn't have to work tommorrow, with how nice out it is here in Eastern CT today, I'd say that this evening has the making of the 1st really good, comfortable evening patio PDW session of 2010 :) :beer: :)

2 for 1 Lift Tickets, Yours Free for the Taking
A guest checked out today and gave me a bunch of 2 for 1s for various places in the North Country. They're of the "not for resale" category, but it says nothing about giving them away. They were given to me and I'm giving them to you.
Just two rules:
1. You have to pick them up here in Vermont. I'm too lazy to mail them to you. (But you don't have to be a guest at the inn, because that would be packaging or something, and I'm seriously just giving them away.)
2. Don't be greedy. Take...
And then there was just 1 Corey

Oh boy!!!!! Is it all over after the rains this weekend?!?!?(3/13-3/15)
Sorry for the radio silence Alpine People. I have had the absolute BEST ski season of my life. I have seen Jay Peak twice this year(trying for a 3rd). Saw Sugarbush, Smuggs and Killington for the first time. Had an amazing blue bird carver day at Gore, an equally beautiful, but way more visceral day at Whiteface. A smattering of killer Stratton days, and a few nights shredding Jiminy Peak. As well as a few days over at Mountain Creek, just to keep the legs loose. It truly has been epic. ...
