  1. Stop. That qualifies as super impressive dude.
  2. Will probably buy mine tomorrow or this weekend to be safe.
  3. I think it was $499 for the JFBB only passes before they went to the options they have now. I agree with you though. The Mt. Snow and Hunter options wouldn't entice me either for similar reasons... the whole if driving 4 and a half hours, I might as well keep going another hour or so for bigger mts. I can't knock Mt. Snow since I've never been. Not necessarily on my list of places to ski though.
  4. If you want to be in town close to restaurants, shops etc. Stay in Lake Placid. If you'd rather be near the mountain stay in Wilmington. If you're going on the weekend the town gets bombarded with the Can Am Hockey kids on Thursdays apparently. Depending on where you're staying that could mean a lot of noise at your hotel. If you're in town though you could park your car and potentially not move it again until you leave if you don't mind a shuttle to WF.
  5. Sounds about right. Those folks got F'd in my opinion.
  6. I agree Ski2live. For you and your kids it's the smart move.
  7. I believe deliberations are underway. A decision should be announced shortly. Salty patience isn't just the ability to wait. It's how we behave while we're waiting.
  8. I just wanted to let everyone know that, after consulting with friends, family, former high school classmates, book club members, neighbors and random strangers, that I've narrowed my season pass choices for the 19-20 ski season to the following 5 areas... 1) Blue Mt. 2) Blue Mountain the True Mountain 3) Blu 4) Booter Mountain 5) Little Gap ski area I just wanted to keep you all in the loop. I'll have my decision made by Thursday March 21st at approximately 4:49 pm. Thank you.
  9. That sucks. I cant imagine too many Gettysburg area /Maryland locals are going to see the hunter, Crotched, Mt. Snow etc. options as a perk. I wouldn't drive 7 hours or so for Mt. Snow. That's insane. Would be quicker and easier to fly to Denver for SLC.
  10. This TR reminds me of Mad Libs where Saltman just filled in the blanks. GSS should get royalties.
  11. Please make me feel better and tell me Saturday was better. Lie to me if necessary.
  12. Look at the bright side. You're still in Montana. Hope you enjoy whatever you guys decide to do. Hoping you get some turns in.
  13. Awesome pics. I feel like I was on the flight with you.
  14. Yes sir. Lots of wooooo hooooo's going on that first run. Was expecting soft cord but instead got a few inches untouched in Razors. Just great skiing today. Spent more time on Widowmaker and X-ing than I have in my entire life because a few locals that I know knew that's where the goods were; so I followed. Only bummer was NMDW being closed again. Otherwise a great day!
  15. The bar has officially been raised for thread titles. Have a great time dude!
  16. Funny to see WF and "small" in the same sentence although I get what you're saying. For me I'll take the vert over the width any day. I like having multiple ways to ski 3k feet or more vert easily; unlike a place like Killington or even Gore where doing a true base to summit run is limited to one trail and basically an inconvenience. I also like standing at one base area, having basically 3 peaks to choose from then filtering back to that same area then choosing another part of the mountain from there. Matter of preference I guess.
