How far from Denvah is Breck?
Vail needs to include a "reach around" in the price of their Lift Ticket
- Thread starter N8 v2.0
- Start date
Yep - those chutes hold snow *days* after a storm. It's really a pity they're so short. If they were another 1000 vertical the Boat would be the best resort in the state.
The only time I skied Squaw I was a n00B. Although that $hit is *still* probably a bit too rich for my blood.
Why do I feel we've had this Keystone vs. Breck debate before?
Order of desirability of Front Range Resorts:
WP/Mary Jane
A-Basin
Copper
Breck
Loveland
Sol Vista
Not Skiing
Keystone
Eldora
Just for the record - I don't actually consider Vail & Beaver Creek "Front Range" though most people do.
Do they even exist anymore? I thought they become something like the Granby Ranch?Order of desirability of Front Range Resorts:

Still there.... they used to be called something else, though. Silver Creek, maybe?
*snort*
Can we get back to talking about ME please?
Sure. What do you want to know?
I'm not kidding.
Boy, I think I'll stay right here. I've got five ski areas within 70 miles that range from fun family style to Resort -
Lookout is $28 on a weekend, Silver is $44, Schweitzer is $49, Mt. Spokane $36, 49 is $40.
I think we've got more snow than CO too, right now.
My season pass is free ( volunteer)

What does Maine have to do with anything?
My brother resides in Avon, and cooks and plays menu adviser at a restaraunt at the base of the mountain, part time, for his lift. Saved him 800 something $$s. Could work out to be a good deal for him. Vail is without a doubt one of the best mountains I have ever skiied. (Skiied in Europe, Canada and all over the West, btw!) If you cant find a deal on a lift ticky, you just arent trying...
Don't worry - I got the straight scoop. It rained all over their local mountain last time around "and then froze solid."
yeah then the next storm came in thrusday night....dumped 16" of dry ass snow here at bachelor, stevens couldnt even open up in WA cause the pass couldnt open up.Don't worry - I got the straight scoop. It rained all over their local mountain last time around "and then froze solid."
Word was that storm rained on Spokane. I got it from ski patrol. And they don't lie.

ah spokane is a different story, i just know what happened here in the cascades. which it did rain on, but then it was an awesome friday!!!! mmmm 6-8 in the groomers is a good day for sure!!!
Yeah - you bahstids in the Cascades *do* have more snow than God.
did i mention that yesterday and today, while no fresh was bluebird and it hadnt gotten over mid twenties so the snow was still awesome on the groomers?Yeah - you bahstids in the Cascades *do* have more snow than God.
looking forward to going up tomorrow, should be more of the same, but maybe a little warmer
You have no idea what your talking about.
um, yeah, I wasn't going to say anything, I'd rather you guys be deluded and stay away from "my"mountain. But opening was awesome.Word was that storm rained on Spokane. I got it from ski patrol. And they don't lie.
One step this side of blue ice, for now.
lthumbsdown:
Don't worry - I'm not likely to make a trip to ski Spokane.um, yeah, I wasn't going to say anything, I'd rather you guys be deluded and stay away from "my"mountain. But opening was awesome.

Now Red or Whitewater, OTOH.....
Red Mountain is having FREE skiing on Christmas day.
did someone jsut read the december issue of freeskier?Don't worry - I'm not likely to make a trip to ski Spokane.
Now Red or Whitewater, OTOH.....
That's definitely a price I can live with.
yeah and those two places were the focus of one of them...the odd thing about me reading it is i am a boarder....I don't read worthless rags.
Why?
Did they do *another* report on interior BC?
Shocker.
What, you've just now read about Red Mtn? Some of us have been skiing the Powder Triangle for years....
hahaha i actually have to agree with you after working at bachelor the past couple days....but no just being the boarder reading skiing mags, for some reason i actually identify with them more than boarding mags (except for ones like snowboard journal)...oh and this illiterate boarder did write 57 pages one the subcultures of mtn bikingWhy is that odd? Because boarders are generally illiterate?
LOL, 33 miles from the house and a season pass for me does not mean destination skiing for anyone else.Don't worry - I'm not likely to make a trip to ski Spokane.

I hope you had a good editor.hahaha i actually have to agree with you after working at bachelor the past couple days....but no just being the boarder reading skiing mags, for some reason i actually identify with them more than boarding mags (except for ones like snowboard journal)...oh and this illiterate boarder did write 57 pages one the subcultures of mtn biking
