heres the deal. my buddy and i want to get mount snow season passes and ski mount snow every weekend possible this season. the problem? i just got dropped from car insurance and he doesnt have a car. so idea is: we get together a crew of all of us and just drive up every weekend. split up gas, its only like a 3.5 hour drive i believe? or maybe if the crew is huge enough rent a bus? i dunno, lots of thoughts running through my head. but basically, lets make this happen. Im thinkin theres kids (like us) that moved further away from skiing to be in NYC for college and fVck that, were still gonna ski. alot. at the best park on the east coast

also, im a mount snow college rep so i get our passes real cheap. even if you dont wanna do this, but still plan on going to mount snow, hit me up if u want a pass

Yo Bra

I hit VT a bunch wit my crew. Were all big ski bums from round NYC. We got a big ass van sweet stuff. We jam the crew in the van and we hit up VT. We also do mad urban round NYC. If u wana chill and hit some of the urban rails wit the crew that be strait, if you like to throw down.

Ya dude I go to Fairfield university, right by westport. The ski club here is gonna have busses going up on some weekends, if your sly enough you may be able to weasle your way onto the bus. Maybe lose the tall ts for the ride, catholic college.

sorry went away for the weekend, actually biked from nyc to westport

anyways, another thing i was thinking is we could split the cost of a trailer and that would cover transportation and lodging, but elliot says im just talking crazy at this point

anyone within 30 minutes of mount snow wanna put up some newschoolers on weekends this season?

Queens guy here. I live in Astoria and regularly ski at Mountain Creek, but I wouldn't mind a way to get to Mount Snow. I got a car and try to go 2 or 3 times a week during the season. I got my own crew at creek, but what's better than one crew? Two!

Make a cult and invite us all homie.

Southeast PA here, when I go it's often solo and I drive right through northern Jersey(78-287) all the way up NY thruway (87) past albany (around lake george)and then east into VT. Anywhere along that route I could provide a ride for a person or 3, plenty of room in the back for gear.

If I were you guys Id suggest looking at going to Big Boulder in PA. Great park and closer to NYC then Mt Snow. From the GWB Bug Boulder is an hour and 25 minutes.
