No idea, but yeah, ghetto like. That's why we decided not to move there full time when we wanted out of NJ. I will let you know, headed to Honolulu in 8 days.

When I sold my house in the Poconos it took a while and I lost money on it. Homes in that development are dirt cheap now. I truly enjoyed all the time I spent there though. By that time I was really "over" the beach, having grew up there. It was a nice change of pace.

$138 Telluride $111 CB. Not saving a ton of money but I hate having to go to the ticket window and if the pass is already paid for I feel like I can ski as little or as much as I want to. I can also use the days at Abasin with my son.

I already have an Ikon Pass. I am not gonna use the Epic too much so not worth it for me to buy a full pass.

I picked up Epic 4 day pass for $449. Gets 4 unrestricted days total at any epic mountain. Next year when I go to Ouray Ice Festival I will do another Telluride day and I am sure I can do 3 CB days so it will be worth it.

Epic I saw all the Vail resorts, Breck, Keystone, Abasin, Whistler, limited days in Utah, Vermont. Plus Telluride joined for next year too. Quite a competition the ski resorts have going for next year. I need to have Eldora on my Pass since that’s where I go the most.

Crested Butte just joined the Epic Pass with 7 unrestricted days. F*CK!!!! $669 so I would have to use all 7 days to make it worth buying.

I agree with Schif, definitely see less snowboarders. My oldest is 19 and been on a snowboard since he was 7. He absolutely loves it and would never consider switching to skiing. But most of his friends he used to ride with have either switched or lost interest altogether.

I should be around. Tell me your plans when you get here and maybe I will meet you one of the days.

Hard no. I used to snowboard and those bastards don’t wait for shit!

really nice pictures!

I will send you and ski2live buddy tickets by next weekend. Gonna try and hit WP one last day next week with my son and he needs a buddy ticket. It’s just a pain to keep track of which ones they use when we go in person. He has 29 days in this season and trying to hit 30.

Toast with the zingers today. Taints and Easter baskets.

The house has been renting very well. I always wait till the last minute to reserve a few days for myself so I don’t give up income. Then it usually gets rented. It’s ok, House was over budget so nice to recoup some costs. With a vacation place you can only hope the rental income pays your expenses, everything else is gravy.

I have been there 4 times total. Weekdays it’s completely empty. Was there MLK last year and the lift lines were better then, let’s say, Winter Park on a normal Saturday. They do some 2 for 1 deals with Shell and I usually go to the TGR ski movie at Boulder Theater in the fall and that gets you a free ticket as well (used on weekdays).

Looks like Crested Butte is really out of the multi mountain game next season. Lift lines will be non existent.

Absolutely puking snow here. We set out to snowshoe with myself breaking trail. Probably snowed at least a foot overnight. It was so socked in you could barely see. I had to keep my goggles up and deal with snow pelting my face because they were so fogged up I just couldn’t see. I didn’t take my phone out at all for pictures. We didn’t last long. Think it took an hour to cover a little over a mile. Should be an interesting snow coach ride back to Mammoth this afternoon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@indiggio what time is your flight on Saturday? Mine is 1:50. I would love to meet you for a quick hello if we are there at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not on this trip but if Elk and Bison count I have had them many times.

I always do a handful of XC days and I do log them. I have my own at home. These are rentals. I brought my snowshoes but wasn’t going through the hassle of bringing the skis. $18 for a half day rental....cheap! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn’t in summer, but winter here is magic. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cross country skied today. Forecast didn’t call for snow but it’s coming down hard here! Wanted some solitude so I chose to go out solo on a trail instead of with the other ladies. All along the trail were geysers. Really something to see with the snow and steam. They all looked stunning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
