skidude Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 you know you want to go skiing Quote
Dave_S Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 Every year I find one day to sneak out of work and take a day for myself. I have not done that yet this year. he best part about it is the amount of skiing I can do due to the low crowd count and the daytime sun. Since my schedule is somewhat open tomorrow (Friday is out of the question) I though tomorrow might be the day. But if I can't do what I want then it doesn't make sense. I think I will do the AM on Saturday get there very early and leave early. I can probably get more in between 8 and 10 than any other part of the day. Quote
ThinkSnow Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 Until a few weeks ago, I was working 2-10:30, I use to get up early, drive up to be there by 8 (1:45 drive), and ski till 12 so I could get back to work by 2... It was great because of what you said... you can ski soooo much more in the AM weekdays than any other time, I'm gonna miss that! Quote
Dave_S Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 I love the AM. I almost love leaving when it is starting to get the busiest. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted February 18, 2004 Report Posted February 18, 2004 i do that all the time too, except on peak weekends (i ski 4:30 and on to avoid crowds).....this weekend will be empty as it is gunna rain saturday Quote
Dave_S Posted February 19, 2004 Report Posted February 19, 2004 I got to ski Next week I travel to FL and there is no chance there. I will have to find a day. Quote
SomeGuyWhoSkis Posted February 19, 2004 Report Posted February 19, 2004 I conned my mom into letting me take off school with my freinds next Wednesday to head up to CB early. There's my ski day. Quote
ole2planker Posted February 19, 2004 Report Posted February 19, 2004 I think I will do the AM on Saturday get there very early and leave early. I can probably get more in between 8 and 10 than any other part of the day. I can rarely take a week day off and go to the Poconos (although I can justify taking several days off and travelling farther away to ski ), so most of my local skiing is done Saturday mornings. I typically get up at 5:00 am, walk the dog, throw my pack in the car and am off by 5:30 am. That usually gets me to the lifts about the time the slopes are opened.  I find the slopes remain fairly open until about 10:00 am and don't get really crowded until after lunch time (say 1:00 pm). Unless it is an exceptional day, I usually skip lunch and quit skiing about 1:00 pm when the crowds start building up. Quote

Ski Posted February 20, 2004 Report Posted February 20, 2004 Today was excellent; the first day that I remember feeling hot. It was day 40 for me, although most days were about two hours, or following a little kid. I've discovered that 3 to 6pm is a pretty awesome time slot for open slopes and warm temps during the week. Â And more props going out to ThinkSnow. Your guys did another top notch job getting my newest gear to my front door today. But I was wondering if you guys ever get bored and just start opening stuff? I don't mean any offense, it's just that I'm pretty sure I would. Quote
