Default skiing- snowboarding this winter?

winter is amoung us!! whos interested in going skiing/snowboarding this year?? maybe we can get the wisc guys in also... this can be a family/ friends thing and probably just a one day thrill..
im thinking maybe alpine valley for the short haul or maybe devils head for a little bit more distance(but bigger facility).. sunday is the best time for me and im sure its the best time to go on the weekends.. if you dont know how to ski/snowboard, dont be scured, itll be fun!!!

Personally, not a big fan of being cold. I avoid outdoor sports in the winter.

Sounds like Fun Lots of nice Big hills in Michigan.

What ski slopes are around your area, and where are they located?


Just taught my wife Mik how to ski last winter, I learned to ski at Mt. Snow in Vermont 19 years ago with my parents, three sisters, and two brothers. I'll never forget that Vacation, ever Toboggan down the side of a Mountain ?
















Learned two things that week. How to ski and Toboggans don't have BRAKES.

I can't wait to go skiing, but I doubt I'll have time to coordinate a trip with anyone. I already have two trips planned for the winter - one at Park City in January and one at Vail in February.

If you get a trip together, take some pictures! ....and a different car.....
