I Got a burton blunt 07 with 08 freestyle bindings with air walk 05 boots. I'm getting a season pass to Saddleback this year. what do you got

 
I have friends who have a Sugarloaf Pass that lets them go to Sunday and one or two other places also.

 
I used to always get an "all east pass" that covered: Sugarloaf, Sunday River, Killington, and Loon Mountian when i was in college. The price was always right. Once you're not in school the new adult price is signifigantly more.

Even with an all east pass, I used to only visit Sugarloaf.

 
Yeah, I have to be careful which trials I head down. I have an all-mountain ride with minimal protection (no full-faced helmet, or pads).

 
My favorite ski destination is Mt Megunticook, right out my g/f's front door in Lincolnville. We ski the north-facing slopes cause they hold snow really well and the woods are mature oaks with not much puckerbrush underneath, it's tree skiing nirvana with a super short commute. there's a well groomed snomo trail up the back side, so it's easy to skin up and swoosh down again and again.

I have some other fave backcountry powpow stashes, but I hate seeing other ppl's tracks so no way am I gonna divulge them here or anwhere else...except when we are hanging around the wood stove drinking good red wine at a backcountry hut someplace. NH, VT, quebec, ME you get the idea......

don't get me wrong, lift served areas don't suck, they just too busy and too many tracks off piste, so I get piste off.

...and as for fave lift served mtn, it's the Loaf 110%, esp since they opened up the on mtn tree skiing. years ago it always seemed so stupid to be tele skiing between the trails and having to dodge the ski patrol cuz having fun off trail was 'illegal."

sugarloaf is by far my favorite just because if you go to the peak it takes a good 10-15 minutes ot get to the bottom if your carving and not flying down you cant beat that.

ive been dying since i moved out of maien to go snowbaording so if anyoen is going this winter and wants somone else to come with them please keep me in mind. im gonan try to go as much as possible this year

 
I go to mostly Sunday River, but I've been all over. Utah, BC Canada, France, all over the Northeast.

My whole family is a bunch of Sunday River ski patrollers.

 
You guys see the new glade they just made at Saddleback? Biggest glade in the east like 40 acres. Its the whole left side of that bowl. That being said, Im in Utah, so we get like 700 inches of snow a year, so everywhere is my favorite

I love the glades. plus they got a new quad to the top where the glades are located instead of the T bar they once had.

 
Yuck, I liked the t bar, kept the tourists and the snowboarders(hehe) out of the hard good stuff. The quad gets there a whole hell of a lot faster now though.

 
Lolololol Lost Valley. I ski patrolled there last year and our record was 13 seconds from the top. Still a fun hill though, the park is nice and its pretty cheap.

 
well actually my Very Most Favoritest Ski Mountain is Alta, Utah

if you are skiing down some obscure chute at Alta and there's this sign, "Danger--Cliff Area" you dang well better turn off the chute, turn back, or get ready to start rappelling

Ok, it is not super hard, but can be due to conditions.

Skiing this year will probably not happen. Maybe sneak to the peak a few nights, and a Maine day up at the loaf... Hopefully they do cheap tixs at the loaf on Wednesdays.
