These are the ones from the '90s? What are you looking to get for them?

Yes, they are from the '90s and have traveled quite a bit. They're actually the "American Beauty" version with the skeleton and roses and have clear protective film over them. I haven't thought much about the price. If you're really interested then PM me an offer.

You guys need a driver? 🙂

We haven't booked a rental yet because we're all arriving at different times over a 12hr window. Are you available to shuttle me from Denver to Georgetown, CO then go back and get the rest when they arrive at 11pm.

the mountain bases are higher.

Especially at a place like Breckinridge. But I usually ski vail or beaver creek, they are pretty much in line with Alta, snowbird, solitude.

i think that since I rarely stay right at the mountain. I get a little break in the altitude. There is no break anywhere in CO. You can’t drive 25-30 min to 4500ft.

Good day on the hill, not the best conditions. Look for the trail count to drop, warm weather and rain in the forecast to bring in the New Year.

Is that a Killington-specific tracking app? That’s pretty cool. I know Ikon has a tracking feature but it seems less advanced than this one.

Looks like Ikon to me. I just use Strava though.

We are up at Tremblant, taking a day off today due to the rain. Got in good days the last 3, the snow up here is about as good as it gets. Or I should say, it was as good as it gets. Some of the best snow conditions I have seen. 2 days ago it was brilliant, yesterday it was somewhat foggy.

2 days ago:

Yes, it’s a Killington specific app. , I don’t doubt that it’s based on similar apps.

Bellarye yesterday with my boys. Mountain was falling apart by the end of the day with lots of slush and many bald spots, but we had a good day and closed out the mountain.

Utah is getting pounded right now, if you're able to get out there, next week will be wonderful. No lines and the softest snow on earth.

Non-stop from JFK, $450, I know JFK sucks, but man, its going to be really good!

not much better that I have ever found....dam I miss living there this time of year.

Tuesday I went to Windham with my son

I got some new-ish Volkl revolt twin twips last month off FB market place....super fun to play around on while skiing with my son.

no matter how much food I bring this child still eats me out of like $40 every time we ski...oh well

Fun day...conditions were typical garbage....ice and ground up piles of ice.


Then on Wednesday I went back to Windham, this time with Kristine, her husband, Alex and Mark....we had a fun day.....I really got to play around with these twin tips and they are pretty fun....chatter a bit if you really press them, but they were alot better than I expected. We got a full day in, conditions were eh...we were able to move around on different lifts and not have to wait too long, but the main high speed quad to the top had a pretty big line most of the day. Its a decent mountain, not as good as bellayre IMO, but I have Ikons passes for me and the fam, so Windham it is.
