    From left, Alex, Ciscokid, Trackbiker, Rick Bolger, Jaytrem, Njskibabe AND photographer JMaul

    Now I know what the Master guesser looks like so I can avoid him on the shore. :D
    Looks like fun, but you should have met at Wildcat. I could have got ground clearance for that.

    You did it!  Glad to see the get-together.  Only sad that I missed it.  Looks like a good time.

    Cheers to all,

    Yup, was a great time.  Thanks again for getting us all together Cisco.

    Turns out rickbolger and trackbiker stay at the same Mt Snow house that my family used to stay at 40+ years ago,  Talk about a crazy coincidence.  Going to dig up some old pics of the place and post them soon.

    It was a great meet-up, albeit a bit short. 

    Great skiing conversations and some boating discussions from Alex.

    Nice to put the faces to the screen names. 

    Thanks for the sticker, Liz.

    Maybe a meet-up on-mountain next season?

    Ski_it, if your planning a trip "Down The Shore", give a shout out and we can meet for a beer.


    You ski because even if you don't do it well, it's still a blast....

    Thanks for the invite JMaul! I may just do that as I can almost guarantee I will be across the bridge sometime this summer.

    Alex or Rick,( or any of you) I think I would have enjoyed pub199 in Mt Arlington. My mom and sister and daughter are there right now.
    Being my dad was a big game hunter I would enjoy the mounts and the seafood and menu look priced well( although cash only)

    Thanks again y'all for meeting up, I only hope I can ski with again some day. Tentative trip planned next winter with Ted Reilly to Holiday Valley NY with ibrake

    Holiday Valley is around an 8 hour drive for Cisco and a 5 hour drive for me. They also have a lift ticket that goes from 3-10 on Friday, 9am-10pm on Saturday, and 9-10 on Sunday for $125

    Now if you invited the SJ Midwest conglomerates to stay at Mr + Mrs Ski_it's house I could possibly be persuaded to ski NH. Although my brother has an open invitation to stay at his in laws timeshare condo in the Ashland/ Plymouth area.

    Have done the fly in to Manchester once. Always will remember my one day's at Gunstock, Wildcat, BW, and Cannon, my bro said this past yr in Jan best in 25 yrs

    Sorry, we aren't running an Airbnb, and it would be a 3+ hr ride to the slopes... Hey, is your brother Rocket21? As I believe he lives in that area as well.

    Hmm ... Holiday Valley?  

     It's just over 6 hours for me, and I'd pass right by Blue Knob.  I have no idea about my schedule yet, but if interlopers are allowed, I hope you can make room.

    Oh yes Woody we need a professor to keep the kids in order. If you come I'm 100%in.
    Heck if you drive 4 hrs to BB what's 6 for good company. You might be able to talk me into Blue Knob, Seven Springs or Laurel
    I'm thinking of making a week out of it if Ibrake4tbars would show me around Syracuse and you escort me through western Pa

    Your wife is a good person, seeing how she lets you plan vacations around what ski resort is in the area so you can go and take pics
