I ski at Gore, sometimes Whiteface, ski at West Mountain (a.k.a. Waste Hill) during the midweek. It's all changing after I graduate high school at the end of this school year, though.

Just moved back. Skiing West Mtn in Glens Falls for the next few years.

If you ski park stop by when you go up to jore or whiteface. Building some new features, and adding a couple parks. West is going to be sick this year.

I'll probably go to the face and jore a few times too for old times sake. But will probably be pretty locked down with work most of the time.

I want to get out there peak season sometime. My buddy Gabe skies there. Also have a lot of non skier friends that are in the area

I went for the end of season rail jam thing 3 years ago I think. Had a good time.

Do it you won't. I bet you a beer you don't make that goal. But seriously do it. I think I got around 120 or so working at jore one year.

I'm from the Albany area. Grew up skiing at Jiminy Peak. This year when I'm on the east coast I'll be hitting up Sugarbush mostly, but also Jiminy and giving Windham a shot to try out some of the new features they are building.

Windham looks like it's gonna be sick this year. I'm not from the area but everything they've been posting about is so cool. I hope they can get a sick set up for everyone out there!

It's going to be a good year at west.

New features, and new parks. It's going to be a lot different than west in the past. I can guarantee that.

Also the new lift, new trail, updated lighting, increased snowmaking, new bathrooms, etc doesn't hurt either.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the parks at west this year.

Hows there park these days?

I used to go there like 99-04. Maybe twice a year when I was in cuse visiting my cousins. They used to have a pretty sweet park. Some really big booters for the time, and some pretty solid rails. I think the first s rail I encountered was there.

Southern Vermont...3 hour drive but I also grew up just outside of nyc so I have a car. I know the Jittney is doing runs to Stratton but its expensive as hell just for the bus alone (I think like $75 or $150 round trip not sure). Plus $100 tickets...expensive weekend if you don't have a car or a place to crash.
