I win....185 miles. So really I lose.

Isn't business always dead?

Great report Dan! Hopefully I'll see you guys up there next weekend. Didn't hear anything about a season pass holder party yet. Did you?

Highly reommend JFBB. Everything Dan said. If you get there at 8 on a weekend you have the place to yourself until at least 1030, especially on East Mtn.

Nice pics. Kids look like they are having fun.

Another vote for Jack Frost. On a Tuesday you will have the whole place to yourself. The blues on the west side of the mountain are pretty tame. Lukoil has coupons for jack frost also. If you really want to see them progress, put them in the race program next season. They take the 5 year olds down east mountain. They don't have great form but its awesome that they are doing it.

The pics Sib posts always look beautiful to me.

Saw you on East mtn Dan. We were out of sync so couldn't catch you. I was anxious to hear about CO. Maybe I'll catch you tomorrow.

Looks so empty, lucky. Best part is what you don't hear....the scraping of East Coast ice.

I say 9 am top of Exhibition.

Nice scenery. I like the one with the lake in the backround.

Guess I'll be the only girl then.

All I can say is wow! Left Boulder about 740 and it took me almost 2hrs to get here with morning work traffic and some snow from yesterday. There has to be a better rout and maybe the Co pasrs can chime in because taking 6 west sucks to get to 70. On to the snow.. Did 5 or 6 runs off the blues from chair 1, then decided to try chair 2. What a long cold windy ride chair 2 is. Made my way into the bowl (not sure what its called). About 1/3 into the bowl I was in solid powder. I couldn't see my board and it wasn't making a sound. It was by far the best thing I have ever experienced on a snowboard. The powder didn't last all the way down. And I don't know how I missed the reload for chair 2 but ended up at the bottom and had to ride all the way up again. Taking a lunch break now and will probably have to drive back since a servpro guy is coming to do more work on my damaged basement @230. This was an awesome day!

Awesome last picture. I love seeing teeny tiny kids on skis. Way to start her early.

Mine leaves at 6:30

Nice report. I have a winter rental at snow ridge village that I checked into this afternoon. It was a shitshow around here for sure. I think I may be able to walk over to the green trails from this townhouse. Looking forward to tomorrow.

I am sure I saw you because I was on tbolt all day (just came in). I got new bindings and they mounted them slightly different and I felt a little shaky all day. Say hi if you see me tomorrow. I am hard to miss...the only woman in her 30s snowboarding slow.

Just wanted to say thanks for responding to my question and trying to help. The boots have rivets that attatch them and even the local ski shop couldn't do much with them. It's not too bad. I think he can get through the season with them.

I like Bromley, it has a completely relaxed atmosphere. And its usually much less crowded than Stratton. Also nice that all the trails lead to the lodge so you don't lose your kids. Nice pics

Cold day. I saw Dan and someone else (maybe C1er) in Challenge glades and I was yelling from the lift but no one heard me. Another empty day, I didn't share a lift all morning either. I miss my boot dryer, my toes were frozen by 10:30.

Great day on the snow. The place was empty!! Stephen and his friend got yelled at by ski patrol for going too fast down thunderbolt. And here is a dumb question (only becayse I have never done this). How do you tighten a buckle on a ski boot? Is this something I can do myself or do I need to bring it to a shop?

About an inch in Avalon and still snowing.

Moe you are hard core with the car camping. No way I could handle sleeping in a car in those temps.

Nice pics. I love how you say you are "stuck in Europe." I can think of worse places to be.
