James mentioned he was thinking of this when I started a thread on meeting, so how do we organise dates/times etc.
I'm in Steamboat 12th - 20th Feb (workable, skiing days) Anyone else around then?

Comment by Boo Boo on February 4, 2009 at 3:58am - JB6543, why not start a new discussion (within this group) for each set of dates? Title it something like "Meet - 12th - 20th Feb?". Then anyone around during those days can post on that specific discussion. Saves it getting lost in the general group wall comments.

Comment by Kup on February 4, 2009 at 5:49am - well, to be all official about it, I'm arrive in the boat on 2/24 and hope to leave all in one piece (and no souviners like pins, stitches, or plaster-wrapped body parts) on 3/3

Comment by Rick on February 4, 2009 at 3:46pm - I think the easiest way would for the discussions to be labeled by dates. If a person wants to meet, and one of the existing date lists includes their visit, just join that discussion. If none of the do, just start a new one with their dates of visit.

Comment by Marlene on September 21, 2009 at 12:32pm - Hey guys - I think you all seem to agree that we should organize this group by creating new discussions using your dates as the title of each. I started one for Kim (mojomom) and patti (snowflake). Perhaps you can repost your comments in the discussion forum above that corresponds to your dates. Thanks!

Usually kids don't want to wear the hood thing, but carry it in your pocket just in case. If it's really cold once you get on there on the slopes, I'll bet you big money that'll change.
Hard to predict of course but history is on your side. Be glad you didn't plan a trip around opening day at Vail today. They've got only one run open.
Temps have been great for snowmaking and we definitely have more snow this year than we had last year. I wouldn't worry, we tend to get dumped on in December.
Here's a good article about late starts and how the season turns out.
I have been checking the cameras lately, and there does not appear to be alot of snow on the mountain, and not much in the forecast?
Getting nervous about our trip out December 18th. Anything to worry about?
I agree with the balaclava. If your boys are going to wear helmets, which they should, then you can buy a nice under helmet hat/balaclava, a must in Steamboat. The key to keeping warm on the mountain is layers. (and toe warmers!)
I ski with my boys every January in Steamboat (now 10 & 8) and they wear the whole kit every day since they stay up top most the whole day ... base layer top and bottom, fleece top (& bottom if it's Arctic cold), and down jacket. They used to wear...
Actually, we may book the Ore House, having had a vote from the children!
We skied a couple of years ago at Christmas and it was very cold. Usually we go in March. Thermals are a definite, if it's really cold I'll make the children wear a long sle...
