        Hi George,

        I'm willing to share a room and costs.

        I was also thinking of taking the suite (nothing else left) myself and sharing it, but it would be ok this way.

        More info via email.

            Woohoo, I looked at the calendar and realised I will be flying out in 10 days!
            I still have not booked accommodation/ Dohhhh
            I just checked the snow report and they still have 74" of snow, that is more than the annual average in Australia so it sounds good to me.

            For anyone who is interested I am keen to get a board in on the 11th or 12th & probably the 13th.
            I am looking forward to a nice cold beer with you all there.

                    Maybe my wife will board with you. I'll do the beer with you, though. πŸ˜„

                    I'm sorry you won't be making it again this time Andrew. And Frederick and JBB, too. 😞

                            Vail Weather report: A little snow at the start of the weekend, then some great weather during Basecamp!

                            10 day forecast:
                            http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/Vail+CO+81657

                            (These are Fahrenheit Numbers, sorry Celsius folks! Click on the 10 day forecast link above and then at the very top right of the weather page click on the Celsius degree symbol to see the Celsius report.)

                                I think my wife and son are going to have fun skiing. We were at Lutsen Mountain along Lake Superior skiing this past weekend. I expect Vail to be much more fun for them.

                                  Yes, we like to do things differently here πŸ˜„

                                  I added a note about the numbers being in Fahrenheit, and how to switch them to celsius for the metric portion of the world. πŸ‘

                                      Hi Guys,

                                      I am finding the ski lift ticket booking confusing. I was thinking about spending Sunday 13th and Thursday 17th on he slopes but it seems that there is no option before the 15th!

                                      This is what I'm looking at http://www.vail.com/plan-your-trip/lift-tickets/lift-tickets-explorer.aspx

                                      Mike

                                      EDIT: Ah! I see the problem ..... to get discount rate one needs to book 7 days in advance. Looks like a chopper drop then πŸ˜„

                                        My wife booked a day late and didn't get tickets for Monday as she wanted. She got Tuesday instead. She told me she would be able to get tickets once we get there, though. Did you get my last e-mail?

                                          Vail's Ticket prices are absurd! I get my whole family season passes to Squaw Valley and Alpine for around $1300. I think I will spend the same next week for 3 days of skiing.....O'well.

                                            I shopped around for discounts but not worth the hassle for the small discounts available. The Vail slopes had better be good as they are among the most expensive I have ever come across.

                                            😠
