    I too grew up ripping the midwest ice at Wilmot, chestnut, Tyrol and Alpine valley. Falling on ice will have you learning real quick

    pretty even rotation between Norwich, Bolton valley and Sugarbush
    Norwich when they wanted to drop us off and leave us by ourselves
    Bolton for night skiing (also a frequent drop off/ lift babysitting) and sugarbush for when my dad could also ski

    In fact, here I am...in the middle...with my brother and sister. I guess that would be like '83-'84 or thereabouts:

    Wow. Sweet shot. That lift is still there. Place is better than ever.

    I learned to ski at JH in 1975. Rented skis from Pepi Stiegler himself.

    My first day skiing ever was about 1977 at Grand Targhee and it was pouring rain. But pretty much learned at Kelly Canyon for free thanks to Idaho public schools.
    Hunting kicks ass.
