This is our first time at stratton/mt snow. We have been doing killington since 2001. This is the first time we've decided to venture to another mountain finally. We're excited.

Stratton is great! I grew up skiing/riding it every weekend from 85-96. Good vertical for east coast, and a great range of dufficulty.
They made it like a mountain out west, despite the snow quality and the temp/wind.

Nice. Love western skiing!

I've been boarding since before they actually let boards on the mountains and we basically snuck onto the lower mountain runs until mgmt caught us. My first board purchase was the winter of '85/86. It was a Burton Elite(?) with a swallow tail and cracked edges. We used Timberland boots or Sorels until our feet were numb. The next year Stratton opened up to boarders and then slowly but surely the rest followed (question: does Alta in Utah allow boards yet?)

I was hoping to head out to Tahoe this year during the kids Winter break (and even committed to a timeshare - see my non-reef sales post) but the wife vetoed the idea.

I'll probably head up somewhere on Superbowl Sunday (early so I can get back) to get my first runs of the year. Just too busy on the weekends with the kid's activities.

Ahh i posted on your tahoe sale. great deal. wish i could do it. Sounds like you were there in the beginning dude. That's awesome. Yea Alta and Deer Valley still skiers only unfortunately.
I was fortunate to go to tahoe last year and colorado the year before. Nothing like out west. It sucks that we live so far and the snow is pretty bad here (except vermont they get decent storms). Enjoy ur trip man!

Yep. I'm an old fart. It always sucks about those two mountains. Especially Alta because everyone always wanted to ski it but I was a boarder so I had to stick to Snowbird or ski that day...and lugging two sets of equipment really sucked.

Now i have myself a wideass all mountain board that I just cruise on. Even after all these year getting off the freakin lift is still an adventure to me. I know it's all in my mind but I had a few bad wipeouts early that pysched me out.
