Sorry I'm so late getting down on this. Too much time spent in the boat this summer. I'm heading up to Jay after work this afternoon to snag my season pass so I'm definitely in. Hopefully for 2 if I can get the misses to pawn off the kids on her Ex. Unfortunately I didn't wind up buying that slope side condo I had been scoping out. When I was getting close to closing on it Fuel prices skyrocketed so I canned the idea. If we do need some overflow rooms and you guys want slope side I can probably get one from a friend who owns a couple for pretty cheep or get the apartment over the Jay country store.
i did some looking sice most of you guys are talking about staying the full 7 days. flights from bwi to burlington are running about $127. looks like that may be my best option as long as someone doesnt mind picking me up and dropping me off.
Thats gunna be a pricey flight from Alberta. But the more the merrier right.
Right now it's about $1000 with all the taxes but I've always wanted to see what snowboarding in Vermont is like. I've only been to Montana snowboarding in the U.S. Getting there is going expensive part but the price for accommodation, food and lift tickets is a lot cheaper than you can get in Banff.

Your best bet is to check out the web site and get teh # for the hotel and call them. I't not letting you make reservations now online for winter time. There is a link to the website right on first post in this thread.
Here is a thought for those from the DC/MD area...
Last year there was three of you. Mooz flew in and TJ and DCP drove. This year I can already tell there will be a few more which is great! So my suggestion is this. I would like to think that by the time comes there will be a need for two cars anyway. Plan on one being the whole trip and the other say leaving Monday or Tuesday am...
Flights will be alot of money by then, so will gas but at least you are in control of your driving situation and stay lenghts..
And twinplanks...IF U DARE DRIVE THAT TWO WHEEL DRIVE PICKUP TO VERMONT I WILL PERSONALLY USE IT IN THE BACK YARD FOR THE OBSTACLE COURSE WE WILL BUILD Smarten up either front wheel or 4 wheel
What? It's fine just needs some new tires. Of course by Feb. gas will be $10 so it will be out of the question to take it. I guess I'll just UPS my stuff and ride the motorcycle.
BTW(not the thread jack) JOE!!! Putzer got arrested again at the camp He's getting better...2nd degree Menacing, 3rd Degree tresspass, resisting arrest and possession of a weapon...most likely his beer bottle
It made the news...
