    Wow just wow…I never understand why people separate and don’t get divorced.  I guess she needs to find a lawyer lol and not a short Jewish one.  

    Have you ever tried getting divorced? It is an expensive and emotionally draining process unless both parties are in complete alignment on what they want the financial and custodial terms of thebdivorce to be.

    I would say having experienced how challenging it is to get a divorce makes it unlikely we will get married even after she gets divorced. Neither of us plan to have more kids - which is IMO the best reason for people to get married. We would rather remain in a relationship as long as it suits us without making it so we would have to go through that process again if we ever wanted to end it.

    Whats worth driving for?  Its early season, most likely any place will be pretty crowded, i mean, except where you go, that will be ski on every time.  Killington has like 4 trails, i mean, sure if i was within earshot i would be all over what ever there was to offer.  if im gonna drive a bunch, i want it to be worth while, not just something to do.  

    Worth it to me to drive for an extra weekend with skiing and really I don't need much on day 1 as mostly about reminding muscles not used since April what I expect of them. 

    Belleayre will likely have 926' of vertical open with 3 runs including blue, black and double black.

    Remains to be seen if Hunter will open but if they do it will be 1463' of vertical with blue and black terrain.

    Either are close enough to day trip. Worth it for me, even if I have to buy 3 tix to ski off pass at Belleayre. Going to Beaver Creek in a month and want to get my teens in good skiing shape for the season well before then. If we don't do it Fri then next day I could take them would be Dec 10. Ski it when you can.

    @Ski2Live Live2Ski this is a deal. Bring the twins and you can ski The True Mountain for only $351.

    If Hunter isn't open we will do Belleayre for about half that price. Plus they have never been there while they are still "Blued out" from 15 days there 5 years ago.

    Any reason you're not coming to ski Blue Mountain the true Mountain? Blue mountain will also be open on 11-24 and it's probably a shorter drive for you which means you'll save big money in gasoline fueling. 

    3 people haven't offered us their buddy passes yet.

  5. Yeah Killington prob open by 1st weekend in Nov, but won't be doing that as going to Stevie Nicks in Allentown that Sat Nt. Any of you locals hitting that show?

     

    Earliest I could conceivably ski is Nov 8, but likely will wait til somewhere on Epic in the East is a possibility. 

  6. Between Blue, Camelback and Windham that would be 21 days of skiing I could do without paying for hotels.

    Would also quite likely hit places like Stratton, Sugarbush, Killington, Loon and a trip or two to Rockies - and it would be nice to revisit all of these places I have not skied since in at least the 5 years I will have had Epic or Indy passes.

    Wish I knew in the spring, I would have gone ikon instead of epic. 
     

    next year I guess 

    Yep this will be my last year on Epic.

    Ikon for 24-25.

    Will be nice to hit CBk and Blue again occasionally instead of JF and RT

  8. I believe they make a little fresh snow every night to keep the surface predictably just how they want it.  Doesn't take all that much $ as it is always kept at proper temperature and humidity and they have the equip built in. Basically just flip a swich.

    Have fun. It’s ok, but 2 hours was definitely enough time there for me. 

    Yeah they were not checking our pass at all when we were there but no way we were gonna keep it up over 2 hrs. 

    For park rats, learners, or a few runs for novelty on a hot day.

  10. Nice to see you guys on your way home.

    Nice thing about the Crown Vic - skis fit in the trunk cross-wise. Got 23 mpg for the trip. Not too shabby for something that size. 

    Went "off pass" this weekend at Plattekill and Belleayre, spent the night at Twilight Lodge (in Tannersville as decision to hit Belleayre instead of Hunter on Sun was made after I booked room - based on reports of not great conditions at Hunter on Sat).

    Still got nice deals - $25 at Platte and $48 at Belle.

    Next up will be Breck April 15-17 making for at least a 35 day Skison
