| | | I took friday off from work and skied at Okemo. It was 100% open and the conditions were beautiful. Especially when you consider that the season has barely started.
I need to find a job in the Burlington VT area. Stowe is calling my name.

| | We are having a great season so far. This weekend temps will be in the 40's - spring skiing in January! My son and his gal are coming up from Boston the following weekend for a couple days on the slopes. I bet we get more snow by then too. We're like 3 years overdue for a good year so it's about time!

| | Well, it got sketchy here for almost a month but THE SNOW IS BACK! NPR said more snow fell to the south of Burlington. I shoveled a foot this morning - that means 18-24" likely in the hills. Forecast for snow through the next 6 days. I'm going up Saturday - 70% chance of snow and temp 33F.
Maybe we should sketch out a date for this "Meet and Ski". Is a Saturday good for this type of thing?

| | | Vermont is a LITTLE too far but I have the Poconos around 2 hours away. I miss skiing since my son aged out of Boy Scouts. That was a guaranteed killer weekend every year.

| | | I'm lost, its as if you're speaking a different language! Where are VT, CT, CAetc etc I have heard of Whistler and Lake Tahoe.
I've just spent a week in the Pyrenees, more risky as to snow conditions than the Alps but snowed on 2 days , otherwise blue skies and high daytime temperatures of 16C. Since it wasn't school holidays there were uncrowded slopes Good wine and good food for apres ski. Anyone want a long trip?
Sunday off for the day to Le Lioran in the Massif Central, tiny resort and not snow sure, but fine at the moment.
Happy skiing |

I'll snowboard EU someday...

| | | So, guys- did it happen? Did you go skiing? I just found this thread. I live in Burlington, and would love it if you got together again! I don't know many diabetics here, and it would be awesome to meet and greet! |

My gear is all tuned up but the forecast isn't very promising  I guess we'll have to wait for December.
