Keep it wrapped, Kri$. We wouldn't want any little Kumars disrupting round two. I say we easterners do a 1-2 Punch. West week and a follow-up east weekend. (or the other way around) If we do plan it, I would prefer that we go the week before Easter. That is when I am guaranteed the most time off.

I'm going to need to be in a lot better shape next winter if im going to handle a week of riding here and then a week of riding over there. There really needs to be a recovery week in the middle.

Powder Mountain Utah...What I liked about this place is they had everything, BC, resort runs...and a shuttle to pick you up down the road and bring you back top. And it wont take all your money either say compared to Colorado..



My suggestion is wherever it is. If u want people from all over the airport has to be convenient such as SLC...and it has to be an airport that services many destinations and arrivals to accomodate everyone.



They also have HUGE houses they rent...that is where u will have to bear down and crunch the numbers so people can decide if they can afford to go for many will have to have an idea of the real cost.

Myself for every meet Ive been on its cost less than a grand. Anything over I spent on gifts and stuff. Your gonna have alot of planning ahead of you.

Honestly I would keep the meet to a minimum. Because the liability falls upon whoever sets it up..ie:housing contracts that sort of thing. VS will not support or "cover" in the event of damage or problems. Typical internet site..they want their cake(we love meets adm used to say) yet....they wont back u up if there is a problem..

50 people increases the risk chance compared to say 20 or less...Just trying to give u a little heads up is all dont take offence please...

In these cases...the MORE may not be the merrier....

I love that bottom pic with the other hill going right back up. Looks awful nice. There sure is a lot of snow there.

Prob sound like a cocky shit here but I gotta say it. From what I see in the pictures, Utah and such has pretty steep grades but the trees are not dense at all. I think Jay type terrain w/ steep grade and a clusterf*ck of trees looks much more intimidating. We'll see what I say when I am actually out there.

Trees in Utah are pretty loose actually. Except for when you get into that scrub brush down low. That stuff is miserable. Utah also has 60 degree slopes inbounds. Now the trees at Winterpark have put a hurting on everyone. Specifically the 40 gate. I've never seen so many east coast "tree riders" just get their ass handed to them than at that place. West coast riders too.
