boarding....snowboarding that is!!!

[hagen]

Ok so I've been itching to hit the slopes lately..(Just got the board back from MX..)
Need some suggestions from anyone who has already been out.
Don't care east coast or west coast...

Looking for....
A. Cheap lift ticket prices
B. Don't want to rent a car
C. Powder be sweet

I know some places like Breck gives discounts to airline employees.

Suggestions.....steamboat, telluride, heavenly????

BTW anyone check out the new fader boards from SIMS. They feature sexbuckets such as Jenna Jameson, Briana Banks, and Chasey Lain. A topless version was made for shop owners. NICE!!!

Colorado was great last week. I was at Breck and Vail, and had some friends at Steamboat. I guess the Boat had the best snow of all (untracked and knee deep on the upper mountain). However, I don't think they, (colrado in general) have had any new snow since then. Check out the snow reports on the resort websites, that would be your best bet. Here's a few.
Vail
Breckenridge
Steamboat
Alta Utah
Alta generally gets over 500" anually, I think they've had 300" thus far and it's only january, so that also looks promising. Never been there but it's on my list.

Have fun and go git some!

Oh yeah,
A. Vail, $73/day $57 w/airline discount
Breck, 67/day? 53 w/airline discount
Steamboat 63/day? not sure of the airline discount, but.... they
have what they call a Steamboat card, (kind of like a season
pass lookin thing) you need to find a coupon for it, and sorry I
can't remember where I found mine, but that brings it down to
$40/day which is a great price for colorado.

B. Colorado Mountain Express. Run vans to the resorts from
Denver ever hour CME link

C. Pow........ Well, I'm sure you know of all the wx links, watch it

Hope this helps. If I can think of anything more I'll let you know.

If you are in the SLC try Brighton in the Big Cottonwood Canyon area!
You can buy discount tickets at Canyon Sports downtown, I think that I paid $37 for a day ticket. No airline discount that I know of.

Ask at Canyon Sports about bus rides to the mountain.
Canyon Sports does have a web site, I don't remember what it is.



Snow was great!!!! I am trying to get back there ASAP.

Hi!


Have fun, but make sure you don't fall and break your arm. It sucks missing a month or so of flying!
