I'm probably skiing this Sunday but I'm going to need sometime to practice with the new skis. So, for Sat 12th, thinking Killington, Okemo, Mt. Snow, or Jiminy - whatever has the most open and is least expensive. I'll keep you all advised. Jeremy __________ Jeremy Davis

To pay them back for the free tickets that you got the last couple of years. Get a free x-card so that you can enjoy big discounts all season. After all, you did ski FREE last year. __________ God Bless Hannes Schneider

mapnut Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Jul 31, 2002 Posts: 5060 Location:New York City	Posted: Dec 08, 2009 - 6:34 PM GMT I'm highly probable for Okemo Saturday. Kappcity, what better day than your birthday to acknowledge that you're going to be old someday? (I also merely jest.)

rickbolger Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Mar 14, 2005 Posts: 2294 Location:Great Gorge, NJ	Posted: Dec 08, 2009 - 7:26 PM GMT Okemo goers....if the Sachem Trail is open, Trackbiker, myself and a few other ne'er-do-wells will gladly provide ski-in/ski-out lunch, refreshments, etc. at lunch time on Saturday. Incidentally, have a couple beds avail Sunday night at a small chalet in West Dover VT cheap (approx $25 pp, less as more join in), same crew, just moving down the road a bit as our condo rental will be over, but we're planning to stay for the $25 food drive Okemo ticket. PM me or Trackbiker if interested.

Thanks.........thanks-a-lot Jeff edit: Crap...Now you're under a storm warning for 5-9 inches.

What are they charging for a lift ticket for Saturday? I can not find a rate other than the $29 Thursday ticket. __________ Jiminy Peak - 11/18/2012 Jay Peak - 12/15/2012, 3/3/13, 4/27 Mount Snow - 12/17/2012, 1/5/2013, 1/26, 2/13, 3/10, 3/24, 3/30, 4/6, 4/13 Otis Ridge - 12/29/2012, 1/1/2013, 1/12, 1/27, 2/9, 2/16, 2/24, 3/16

Quote: Believe me, Kappcity06, mapnut is right. And "some day" comes a lot sooner than you might think. Hey kappcity, I've skied with a few of those old timers. Most of us learned how to ski on ropetows, so we had to ski up the mountain as well as down. They're a tough bunch. My money is on them for any ski event you want to challenge them to. Looking forward to hooking up with some SJer's on Saturday or Sunday at Okemo.

Make sure to post some pics of the SJ crew this time rather than just a shot of the recycleable cans and bottles! Have fun and looking forward to seeing the trip report. __________

Now that my foot works, I will ski again!!!!! __________ Born to ski...forced to work!http://teachski.com

nelsap Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Nov 21, 2001 Posts: 3649 Location:Saratoga Springs, NY	Posted: Dec 09, 2009 - 7:46 PM GMT Hi everybody! Okemo just got 14" - so lets do it! Saturday, meet 10am at the bottom of the Sachem Quad (might be away from some of the crowds). I'll have on a black jacket, no more Patriots hat as I have a helmet now. Look for my Solomon Xwing Storm skis. Post at the bottom if you can make it. Think snow! Jeremy __________ Jeremy Davis

MissDaEast Profile \| Galleries Rank: Member Since: Dec 17, 2002 Posts: 2317 Location:So. Cal / Exit 1-I89,VT	Posted: Dec 09, 2009 - 9:18 PM GMT Jeremy...a black jacket??? You've got to be kidding me! I'm know it looks good, but how are they (I'd be one of "them", if I could) going to find you among all of the thousands who also wear black jackets??? I think that you should put some neon colored Duct Tape (with NELSAP written on it) on your helmet, or something. By the way, those new skis look awesome! But, again, no one will see them, because they will be buried under 3 feet of fresh powder. Hope you all have a great day out there!

I'll bring my camping chair so I won't have to stand for an hour and a half. Then I'll be on the hill! Finally! Hot wax time! __________ The Artful Dodger
