Article from NBC Sports regarding the impending foreclosure and auction of Whistler - site of this year's Olympics http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/34961318/ns/sports-olympic_sports/ It sounds like Intrawest was saddled with a ton of debt by its private equity firm, but this goes to show how...

Coming up for New Years with some friends. One of the wives is prego so no riding for her. Wondering anyone has recommendations for short scenic snow shoe trips around LP. She would like to get out and do something, but nothing too strenuous. Have a great New Year everyone! Danzilla

We are coming up for New Years with some friends that need to rent skis. Any recommendations in Lake Placid would be much appreciated. We would like a place that lets you pick up the night before. I think Cunninghams has a place in town right? We are staying in LP so only want to hit a place...

Not sure if this is depressing or inspiring. Should bode well for the Olympics this year. http://www.whistlerblackcomb.com/media/news/season_2009-10/091201.htm A fraction of this before next weekend would make me happy. Not going to make it up this weekend.

Anyone ever live there or know somebody who does? The wife and I have been kicking around the idea of relocating up there. We spent a week there in June and are going back up in a few weeks. I haven't skied any of the areas that far north in VT although we went up to Stowe and Smuggs this...

Saturday - snow cone on top of italian ice Sunday - all snow cone Monday - frozen yogurt We had 3 days of awesome spring conditions. Saturday was crazy packed but the conditions were good. It rained all night Saturday into Sunday morning and I thought it was going to be a disaster but the...

Looks like some snow falling on the radar. Is North Creek getting much? I shovelled some into the back of the car today to bring with us this weekend. How bad was it this past weekend? Looked like the rain hit NY, VT, and NH pretty bad. Hoping it is decent this weekend. D

My wife and I are coming up to LP for a long weekend with some friends (all early to mid 30s). We usually ski at Gore so not too familiar with LP. Looking for some recommendations on bars and restaurants in LP. Nothing fancy - good eats good beer good music. We are planning on checking out...

Anyone been in there yet? I see on the copperfield website that they are open again with the same (or similar) menu as before. I loved their chili and wings and pitchers of blue moon. Nice to have a place with live music on the weekends too. We are heading to LP this weekend, but hope to...

Got this in a season passholder email yesterday. Looks like someone got a little early season poach on burnt ridge. Nice to see the lift is ready! I have to admit I have been doing a bit of lurking lately. I promise to add my two cents more often:) D

Anyone ski Mon/Tues? I have to convince my 7 month prego wife that the conditions are worth the drive up from northern new jersey. We usually ski at Gore, but would like to make a trip up to LP so she has something to do during the day. Any recommendations on a cheap hotel/motel in or just...

Does anyone know if it is still on for this Saturday from 12-6? Saw it advertised online a few months ago, but their website seems to be MIA. I know someone said the place might have sold earlier in the year. I am really looking forward to some cold beer this weekend - I hope it is still a go.
