so would your information incline you to tend to take otten off the hook on this? i would guess that for the last 5 years, i have paid probably no more than 15 bucks a day to ski loon ( which is about 50% of the ski days ) .....that is absurd....it shouldn't be that cheap... when i was buying...

exactly.. that has been my point about sugarloaf... from my place in lincoln, K is 101 miles and probably about 2:15 drive time in clear weather, and from home K is 3 hours... whereas sugarloaf is almost 3:45 from lincoln and i'm sticking with the 5 handle from boston, with as geoff said, a...

in regards to boyne: one thing i strongly disagree with what they are doing is offering the cheap season pass...this past year it cost me 500 for the loon/waterville pass... boyne cut the price to 350 for loon/ river and bush....certainly you can argue that loon/river/loaf is a superior list...

i plead ignorance to sunday river running a lift till memorial day.. i was not aware of that... anyone have a chart for sunday river's closing dates imo the question about boyne staying open late is going to be are they gonna commit to blowing snow like crazy , like K did on SS...as was evident...

that's my point about sugarloaf,,,, it's too damn far... it won't ever work...and very rarely would they be in a postion to ski through may if they didn't set up a superstar like course with the snowmaking ....i don't see them doing that.....and frankly if they did, they would be fools cause no...

Tony wrote: In the meantime joegm should patronize Sugarbush/MRG, which seem quite hospitable to former Killington bumpers and late season skiers. I give them credit.. but wildcat stayed open just as long as they did and cat is 1hours from where I am as opposed to bush mrg which would be 2 …I...

instead of posting a useless crack like that, why not use the time to email chris nyberg at killington and tell him how much his company sucks for continuing the outrageous policy of not skiing through may :?

:roll: click on this and look at what they are putting up on the site and outside the shop http://www.basinski.com/ why are we closed indeed.. the spring season discussion about sugarloaf makes for interesting talk but we should get back to reality and focus on what should be the late...

tony, i can get outvoted by people who believe what they want to believe, but that doesn't change what the truth is.....it is simple math...sugaloaf is a 5 plus hour ride from the city limits of boston.. if you are on the north shore of boston it is a little less and if you are on the south...

it's interesting you ask that question as i was going to start a new thread with an observation made my my buddies who skied cat this week . loon bretton and attitash , from what the crew and i saw these past 3 weeks , have more cover than any other ski area west of vermont, with the possible...

marc, anyone willing to drive 7 plus hours on any kind of regular basis is a ok with me....i know your a good guy.... but from the time one puts the car in drive in boston, till the time one is loading up onto the chair lift to start the actual skiing, i'm sticking with the 5 and 1/2 hour...

come on marc,, stop it....sugarloaf is 243 miles from my stoop in boston...that is smack dab in the the middle of the city....so add or subtract 10 miles or so from that for people on the south shore of boston or the north shore....240 is a reasonable average.... 240 miles with kids in a...

i think the skibumm's point is well taken.... additionally, sugarloaf, no matter how good or bad or whatever one may think it is, is not a viable alternative for the boston metro area skier....it doesn;t matter how good the terrain is, that only becomes a factor for the sickest of the...

yet another hill that just doesn't get it... bumps only on the steepest runs that the average recreational person either cannot ski properly and or don't want to ski and groom the hell out of the less steep , more moderately pitched terrain on the bottom...unreal :roll: god , this industry...

not a cloud in the sky as far as the eye could see....40f at the 302 /16 intersection at 830am...pulled into the lot and saw the same 40f.. the morning was groomers till about 11 and the first slip of panther began.. early lunch and back out to charge at 12...everything was primed by then.. line...

now that's just silly... i think the first report of the year i put up back in december said something like mad river glen was epic that day... the title of this section is and always has been no bull....do i inject a little slant if the moguls on any given day are not where it think they...

sklbumm100- i think you were the victim of timing.. timing is everything...based on what my buddy's skied yesterday and one of them who was also there friday, you just got unlucky.. it poured rain there friday at 5pm.. then it got cold... i know sat and sun must have been disasters, but that;s...

in the top 3 days of the year... not a trace of clouds...stayed cool... topped out at about 48 with a nice breeze... kept the corn firm all day...loon is pretty much 100% open, if not officiallly, for all intensive purposes...the line under the gondy was still very skiable, although not...
