My girlfriend is really getting into the whole riding thing, which is awesome. Check out her trip coming up at http://www.tendersandtrails.com

 

No trips for a few more months. CO and a few VT trips are already in the works though

 

its only september and i'm a last minute kinda guy...but i'm sure i'll be making a few vt week or weekend trips and maybe some poconos day trips here and there

 

Im 5 mins from here www.elkskier.com

 

I go to mount snow

 

Got out a ton last year, boarded the below mountains:

Jay Peak
Bolton Valley
Burke
Ragged
Crotched
Gunstock
Pats Peak
Cannon
Shawnee Peak
Nashoba Valley
Killington
Pico
Mount Snow

Picked up a Lib Tech Attack Banana and a set of Burton Mission bindings for this year.

Hopefully we get as much snow as we did last winter.

 

hell yea!

I just bought a season pass to creek last night so i can head up there during the week after work to ride for a couple hours a night. Weekends will be reserved for much better mountains.
Also planning a trip to tahoe in january.

 

Yeah you can't beat them, when I was in school Ski America owned a bunch of mountains got a seasons pass for $375 for the below mountains.

Killington/Pico
Sunday River
Okemo
Mt. Snow
Sugarloaf (may have been sugarbush)
and 2 others

 

Sugar Bush does $299 college season passes for both mountains. When my wife and I were in college (great now I feel old) in VT we would be there 5 days a week.

 

Yeah college was quite a few years ago for me too, its amazing how much a lift ticket/pass is now.

 

When I was at Ft Drum we would get amazing "10th Mountain" discounts for White Face. It's hard to pay full price on some of these mountains sometimes.

 

Here is a crappy pick of my new setup for this year, got a deal on a 2011 Lib Tech Attack Banana and a set of 2011 Burton Mission Bindings.

Picked up new boots last year, Salomon Savages, I am sure there are nicer boots out there but I love these things.

 

Cool setup. I never really liked the boa boats though.
