beachiegirl2ski Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 We want to reach out to season pass holders from other resorts. From now until the end of this season, bring your 05-06 pass to a ticket window at Windham and ski or ride for FREE. Do it every day if you want. Get to know us. You'll appreciate the terrain, the atmosphere, the facilities and the service. We hope to make such an impression that you'll make this your home away from home. Now get out there and tear it up!

Timeless Posted March 24, 2006 Report Posted March 24, 2006 Wow at last some value from my CB season pass. Quote
skimom Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 (edited) Wow, what a deal. Can't beat the price. I went Saturday. Most of it is still open. It's wet granular - bulletproof early in the day. I used my good skis - based on the report from a regular who said it had been great the previous weekend. DO NOT use your good skis! After it softened up a bit, it was a blast. Some radio show sponsored a race, with prizes to the fastest three racers. The Bode's flew, and I came in first of the women, but fourth overall. I got 500 points towards something (but I can't figure out what) for beating the pacesetter. It was fun - opportunity to chat with Windham racers while they were working out the timing issues. They had pondskimming too, but I didn't do that - watching it was fun. Get it while the going is good - another warm day or two, it will be slim pickings... Thanks again for the heads up, Beachie...

beachiegirl2ski Posted March 27, 2006 Author Report Posted March 27, 2006 How do you think Windham will be by the weekend? Maybe I'll just ski Belleayre two day...Skimom, have you noticed with your Avocet that Windham lies about vertical? I remember them saying the high speed quad was 1550 feet and I used to get readings of around 1300 or so..(9 years ago). i just off the phone with them and they said coverage is great!. no need for rock skis... i'm going to believe mum before i believe them Quote
skimom Posted March 27, 2006 Report Posted March 27, 2006 It wasn't that bad, Beachie. 99% of each run is fine without rock skis - I noticed the brown mostly because I have one month-old skis. You don't need skis on the way to the grave, but if you have old and new skis, use the old ones. The hill to the left as you go up the lift (skiers right) has well preserved terrain on its cruiser and on why not. The middle of the main face is also fine. The cruiser runs on skiers right and the steeps to the skiers left of the main face were sketchy at points. Doug, I don't think 1550 is way off, but maybe a little optimistic. I'm thinking 1400-1500. It's a nice place, and who knows, maybe they'll have another promotional race... Quote
