wow, i've been riding Jay Peak, Smuggs, Stowe and Whiteface all winter...have really had a bad day yet...i think i'm going on my 15th trip tomorrow. There havent been any powder days for me yet but i've stayed on the right slopes and hide out in the woods where i can. I havent left the mountain yet wishing i hadnt gone.

maybe its the places your riding. If you're traveling up to VT i'm guessing you're coming from ny or jersey and probably riding the resorts off 91 (stratton, okemo, snow). these places tend to attract a lot of yuppies, especially on the weekends due to their proximity to the city. spend another hour or two in the car and your experiences will change dramatically.

in other news, I rode 8" of fresh this morning and i'll be ridding tomorrow in double that. should shape up for an awesome end of week/weekend. feel free to call it quits...more room on the slopes for me.

and looking at my calendar i have 42 days under my belt this year and i can only think of 1 day that sucked (0 degrees 30mph winds gusting to 50+). really...what makes for a bad day?
