    Room for 7 nights: $525. check.
    LIft tickets for 6 days: $300 (less if pass is bought). check.
    Tours/guiding/transpo: $150 (can skip). check.
    Bar Tab: $200 (OK, reign it in people)
    Total cost: $1925.

    C'mon, where in the North America can you stay within 1/4 mile of the lifts and have access to virgin pow, killer food, great drinks and whole new guided, amazing skiing for that amount?

    Life is short, this is a great deal.

    Do it.

    I may or may not make it, shit happens, but I'm going to plan and try. Can't guarantee it's a rolling thing unless one of you kids picks up the torch and skis with it.
    Dang... I want to go so bad...

    That’s the beauty of this gathering. Lots of folks with all ranges of skills and commitment. I’m a beater and still found plenty of mags to ski with.

    I’m still up in the air this year, but am trying hard to figure out how to get out there for a week. If you’re on the fence go! It’s fucking awesome.

    This is the new grail. Let those tuned in see and read and understand, but this one is too special to explicitly spell out right now.

    Brian has committed and will be in attendance. We will also be doing some <ahem> side trips. Perhaps to see that lovely lass at the espresso machine?

    One, if not THE most amazing day I’ve ever had. Ski 8k down to this little chalet for unreal food then ski out a road for 3-4 miles, hop a train, then a van.

    Nice to see @vendul in his FreeRide Systems hoodie!

    Sad I missed that day. If I make it back, no more silly week long tours .

    The only reason I'm potentially out is it would make for 3 Euro trips inside of 8 months for a total of about 6 weeks.

    Hey, I'd have taken that as a reason to go.

    An outstanding trip. That day in the Engadin was fucking stellar. Best lunch spot evarrr. And the best deproach, after pizza at venduls's brother's restaurant, full moon over the Julier Pass with a turbodiesel van fulla coreskibros with Soundgarden on the FM radio night show.

    Someone lost the other vehicle, or it got towed, or something.

    Forever etched. So many unreal visuals that day and into the night. Huge shout out to my co-pilot for the trip back to base camp. That drive was fun.

    Stop. You guys are gonna ruin the Alps. It will be to busy now. I'm not guide there with the life/work/planning but I might make it. Pretty awesome that you guys have found a home at Vendul's. Don't wipe your ass on the pillows.
