Salty if you don’t go to Colorado I’m sending you a bill for all the packing and airline advice I gave you last night...my rate is tree fiddy an hour.

If I could cancel my VT hotel I would definitely go west. But VT is still rad to ski, just as long as there's no rain. I fear if I ski out west I'll never want to ski in VT again.

Vermont just has smaller mountains and is much worse weather...if it lived somewhere like Boston I’d probably go to Vermont more. For a low intermediate skier like you colorado is better just because the runs are wide open, well groomed, it’s usually sunny..you wouldn’t know it looking at Moe Ghouls posts but Vermont can have some of the most dogshit snow conditions imaginable. Way worse than what we get here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way worse than what we get here. Boston people ski NH or ME. NYC, Albany, Stamford, Hartford and Springfield and VT people ski VT. And some of us NJ folks. If going for an overnight ski trip that is usually where I will go. Plane travel sucks and adds major $ (even if in form of miles). Rockies are definitely better. But Stowe is as big a step up from PA (barely skiing) as CO is from VT IMO. Edited January 31, 2019 by Ski2Live Live2Ski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question: you ski hourglass or maybe even just the goat woods at Stowe? I’m not saying Vt is equivalent to Rockies but there is some spicy terrain up in Vt off the beaten path and the conditions often make it more so. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Ski2Live skied that. Goat woods are a lot of fun though. I used to like discovering all the old overgrown trails at Stowe that were cut in the CCC days.

I used to like discovering all the old overgrown trails at Stowe that were cut in the CCC days. Nope, I just found out about it this year. Would need to follow someone too because from what I gather it’s a bit of a hike from the Gondi. Yeah, goat woods and star woods are fun. More so then the blue ice bumps on the trails themselves (headwall area) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
