I trying to get an idea about how many skiers/borders are here at NJYP. And kind of pick up each others brain a little about good places/deals up there. Where do you go? Where do you want to go and when?
I generally like to go to Hunter a few weekends a year. They seem to make the most snow of the mountains close enough to drive to in the morning, and you can get $8 off by buying the ticket at Ski Barn. But it's not worth burning a day off from work on.
When going up north it depends on conditions. I feel you can only go to the smaller specialty Vermont mountains if there's enough natural snow (since they don't make it).
And one trip west per year, usually to Steamboat or Salt Lake City. I really want to try Jackson Hole and Whistler though.
I need to purchase new skis, and I think it's going to be the Volkl AC50, though K2 Recon is still in the running.
I ski, snowshoe and snowmobile. It's difficult finding anyone who likes to go on day activities. To be honest.... it's easier to send a message or a comment to people who have same interests. Soooo many posted forums up in NJYP.
