  1. Snow was nice, bumps were fun hip felt great! Only saw gss from the lift, had to coach jr's game - no de-booting beer felt unnatural
  2. Time to make the cookies...
  3. Probably head up in the afternoon for a few runs, got a meeting in the am and hockey game in the pm :-/
  4. Such a great day!
  5. slalom Wednesdays are fun - $15 club lift tix, $10 unlimited NastyR! a few beers in the lodge (cheaper than blue!) your spoiled being so close, that's easy for me to say since bc is closer to work for me
  6. Jeff set up an eastern pa virtual beer league based on NASTAR scores on any given night - sound like a money maker cha ching!? If not theres always bragging rights and beers!
  7. Platty has sustained steeps t2b but Doug you'd hate the slow lifts
  8. a few years years ago there was a bump line on come around opening day, fun with the slalom skis. what about nightmare bumps? the last few times ive been to elk tunk and a section of cherokee (? skiers left afew runs over fro tunk ?)were bumps
  9. theres awesome bcXcd skiing near both - gore has botheration pond http://www.wildernesspropertymanagement.com/trail-maps--docs.htmland theres tons in the high peaks to check out, hoping to do more of that this winter, so fun!
  10. Mt snow has some fun trees and terrain on the north face and the parks are pretty impressive which give them the advantage, the bars and restaurants are way better than stratton or okemo imo. bromley's got some fun trees and bumps and has that skiing in the sun vibe, everyones happy! Ive nothing against okemo, ive been ther e twice and can't remember one damn thing about the mountain other than being the only 5 dudes there without any kids in tow which says somethingin itself... no comparison... I like whiteface a little more than gore for reasons other than skiing (I have roots and family around there and love the high peaks area), gore's got some great woods and terrain but some of the traverses are a bit of a pain in the ass
  11. this is the okemo target skier - fun place to cruise with the fam for sure. years ago a bunch of friends would do a vt every year and each of us would take turns selecting the mountains so the perpetual intermediates in the group would always choose okemo or Stratton. Good thing is you can always find a seat at the bar at okemo! Stratton is kind like a Disney/mall version of vt, the parking garage is a reall stoke stomper for me, would rather walk two miles through a muddy lot outside. We did southern vt a bunch of years and would rather be at mt snow, bromley and magic
  12. As long as Jim remembers to get the lifts inspected!
  13. Laaaaaast call...
  14. Trexxfext yesterday
  15. pm'd ya deadline is this weekend!
  16. greek peak yesterday
  17. food and menu are decent, they always have good beers flowing. some decent performers - craig thatcher etc. a few nights last year the food/beer/tunes were better than the skiing. the bar and restaurant spaces are beautiful, I think barb way overspent for blue, but it's gorgeous. I always thought bc's lodge and bar were nice but this is even nicer

  19. ive never shat at blue but do know 2 people that shit in their ski pants. one was a friend of one of my kids. I ski'd commando in single digits to give them my long johns - true story!
  20. the view down lookout below (pic#2) never gets old, nice summer stoke. We ski'd there that Friday and Saturday and the coverage was great.
  21. 91.9 nti has a bluegrass show Saturday mornings- my blue mt jam
  22. No GD50 for me, last show was '95
  23. Lots of train stories... Studied a semester in Rome and did the eurail pass / backpack summer thing including ski trips Dead shows by plane and train New Rochelle/ Catskills trips by train Will expand on another time.....
  24. Greek peak is open this weekend
  25. got to close out my season at whiteface - finally got a beautiful spring day in on Friday with highs in the 60's and great soft snow. Temps dropped along with 3-4 inches of fresh Friday night/Saturday to end the season on a pow(ish) day with variable conditions on Saturday. skunked again with no slides opening but a great end to the season just the same - mrs SnoBunSki was skiing WAY out of her comfort zone both days, caught up with some ny ski friends for a few runs and stoked to see jr huck a 3 off the big rock on the Wilmington trail! psyched to make it the season with you fools - getting me some replacement parts in 3 weeks
