103 before Corona closures.
Date | Place | Price | Drivetime | Comments |
| Berkshire East | $17 | 2 hrs | Best, cheapest, small, easy-drive area; more vertical & better terrain than W, PP, & C |
| Ragged Mtn | $27 | 2 hrs 20 min | Best big small area. Always seem to have a good day here. |
| Bromley Mtn | $81 | Overnight | Very cold, windy, & snow guns @ full blast; still pretty good, but not worth money |
| Gunstock | Free! | 2 hrs 20 min | Similar to but < $$$ than Bromley for Jason & free for me! Tiger Triple = fun terrain |
| Crotched Mtn | $30 | 2 hrs | Easy ride; same vert as Wachusett + more trails; but weird vibe – prob won’t go back |
| Ragged Mtn | $29 | 2 hrs 20 min | In retrospect, probably not the best day to go skiing given the sleet & zero visibility |
| Berkshire East | $17 | 2 hrs | Even better this time with most trails open |
| Waterville Valley | (Free) | Overnight | With Marc – Old Tecumseh, Tippecanoe, Tyler Too, Gema, Clean Shaven, Governors |

Sorry to hear that , I hope you will be ready for Next season 20/21. Wish you all best.8 and Done.....
About 3 weeks ago I had a freak spill on Andy's Encore at Copper on the last run of the day. Knee buckled afterwards, and today I finally got the confirmation that my ACL is toast. Meniscus is largely intact and the surgeon doesn't anticipate removing any material. Minor victory.
Earliest possible surgery is 3 weeks from today. With Aspen 2021 is about 10 months away from my surgery date, I'm doubting the wisdom in springing for a 2021 IKON.
For those who I had planned on skiing with this season, @KingGrump @MattSmith The mothers day crew and others, my regrets...Enjoy the powder without me bringing the clear skys and sun around.

I have a "Back Country" line scoped, want to hit next weekend if the weather cooperates. It will be a strain but think I am up for it. It will require about 200' of fairly flat walking to get a mile long 1,200' vert line. Think I will drink lots of beer this week to train for it.
