This thread reminds me of this song... I'm sorry RidgeRacer, woo. I am for reeaal. Nev-er meant to make you mad, I apologize a trillion times. So sorry RidgeRacer, wooooo
-
I agree, I'll buy you a sweet Baby Jesus beer.
-
It's all good, I'm used to it. Will probably get banned soon for these shenanigans but I'll still see you in the lower lot.
-
So let's see who I pissed off today... I owe RidgeRacer, Rummy, GSSucks, AtomicSkier. Probably did something to Toast. Just keep a list and I'll bring some gifts for all my wrong doings.
-
Thanks a lot! I wonder if a ticket to the general public will open up if you cancel?
-
That's what I meant... I agree that Killingtons layout is like XC skiing. It was fun doing Great Eastern for 3 miles when I was new but now I'm over that and want the big leagues (e.g. more vert). Someone else said that also. I should not have generalized VT when I grossly misrepresented RidgeRacers statement and for that I owe him reparations.
-
Sorry, didnt mean to put words in your mouth. I should have written that your preference is WF over VT. But ok, I will no longer converse about this subject. Gosh I'm getting in all kinds of trouble today
-
I wanna go to Hunter but am out of vacation time now. Maybe the cold will result in some tickets becoming available this weekend and keep people home.....

@RidgeRacersays Whiteface is better than Vermont, I believe. It has the most vertical on the east coast and is not crowded. Plus it's far north so I assume it gets great pow often On top of that, it's very reasonably priced. $97 a night for a hotel in $69 for a lift ticket. I doubt you can beat those prices (midweek) anywhere else For me, my priorities are excellent snow and no crowds. WF checks those buckets so as Ridge says, well worth the 6 hr drive. Also, I understand Gore's layout is more like Killington - a wider mountain with less vert. I'll likely ski there my last day.

I did not by any means ignore advice provided by GSSucks. I simply made a general statement to GSS that I like to take in the whole vibe when on a ski trip, not just the actual skiing part, and gave an example of a past experience. When I am looking up places to eat and vibe at Snowbasin and elsewhere, there is no doubt in my mind that I will refer back to this thread for all of the insight provided by GSSucks, Justo, and others.

Of course I'll check out John Paul Jones. Calm your horses.
-
Correct. I don't just go for the skiing, I go for the whole experience. Sometimes I sit in the lodge for 45 minutes and just vibe and take in the atmosphere while drinking a hot cocoa with mini marshmallows and then shred double black diamonds full of moe ghouls.

You're trolling, right? I thought you'd never go to Elk.
