    How far are you from seven springs? Or from the poconos? I'm 2 hours to my closest

    Will do

    Hey Guys, KC here reporting from Maine. I ski every weekend (and most mid-week POW DAYS) at Sugarloaf or Sunday River. Holler if you ever want to meet up.

    Anyone else rig up a ski rack for your bed? I used a couple 2x8's in the bed notches as a platform under my tonneau.

    seven springs is supposed to be pretty good (they filmed a bunch of pro videos there) probably worth 3 hours drive. idk if its just a good park or if the mountain its self is any good.

    That's what I hear just never felt like making the trip. Holiday Valley (NY, bout 2 hour trip) is not bad but I'd like some longer and faster runs than they have.

    Nice, I've skied at Whiteface my whole life. Good Mt. Lots of excellent restaurants in Lake Placid as well (off beaten path).

    Let us know how Smuggs is.

    Killington was great today! Sun was out on Bear Mt. Cold and windy but snow was good

    I've skied at -22* WITHOUT windchill up there... :eek:

    I skied Gore today at -10* but it warmed up as the day went on.

    Gore gets brutal with wind. Was there years ago with the wind blowin ya right in the face. They were checking people at the top of the lift for frostbite.

    I looked over at my buddy at the bottom... His nose was Snow White!!!! nothing a little warm air didn't fix. Not a fan of Gore at all, just too flat and boring. But for $15 it was a cool day to hang and chill with a buddy
