Seeking Indy Pass Ski Buddies

[Peppermint]

I am looking to ski at more/different mountains this winter. My husband is recovering from a broken leg and back surgery this spring and won't be joining me on the slopes this winter so I'm looking for others who want to ski around New England. I have an Indy Pass, and have access to many other mountains around North Conway. If anyone wants to meet up to ski, I'd love to hear from you. I'm an advanced skier. I love tree skiing in particular but enjoy skiing all terrain and mountains of all sizes. I joined the Ski Divas at Bretton Woods last winter and that was a lot of fun so I hope to join the group for one of their trips this winter as well. I ski a couple of times a week from Nov. to April - both midweek and weekend.

I am also looking for a new ski buddy this year that has an Indy Pass (my old ski buddy went off to college last month). I was at the Bretton Woods gathering last year and actually skied some tree runs with the help of @liquidfeet. I am advanced, can only ski weekends but hit me up if you want to plan on meeting up once the season gets going.

I know plans are in the works, but unsure if there is a date yet.

@liquidfeet you are one of the Divas heading up this effort, right? Or at least I think I remember seeing it discussed somewhat recently.

I just posted a thread for a Saddleback get-together.

@liquidfeet - @Kathy Bennett hasn't reach her 25 posts yet, so can't see it.

But the rest of us can!!

I would be up for a trip like that! I'm self-employed so I have a flexible schedule.

Have you noticed a section called Getting to Know You? You could create a thread there. Good to put where you live or the region you ski the most in the thread title. Good way to add posts once people say "hello" there.

I’m down a ski buddy as well this year (my best ski buddy is at college) and not sure my husband will put up with skiing every weekend! I have an ikon pass, mostly ski Stratton, but toying with the idea of the Indy so I can ski Magic! I ski most weekends, so if you’re heading to VT or even Western MA (Berkshire East), let me know!!

I don’t have an Indy pass, but I live in VT and could meet up with you at Bolton or Jay Peak.

Keep posting so you have access to the Divas only section!

Day trips to Caberfae or Crystal. Oh, and Bittersweet, occasionally. Overnights either Boyne or Nubs, depending on what pass we have. With Indy this year, will be Nubs (happy they were added!) for sure. Do you ski in Michigan?

I come up there for work. GR, Lansing, Ann Arbor and then the TC area. I have yet to make it work, but I want to try to get a day or two in this year.
Right now I have a trip planned at the beginning of November, but for next year, I want to get up there in January. I know it's cold. but I'm ok with that.

Have you ever skied Bohemia? Our local ski club is going there and I'm intrigued

I've read about Mt. Bohemia. I don't think I'll make the trek to get there, especially since I've read that they don't seem to have a lodge and there is little lodging nearby. But yes, I've been intrigued.

I have not. I like groomers too much, lol, and if I’m going to make a long drive I’m going somewhere with options! It’s at least 9.5 hour drive, for all it’s in the same state.

They have slopeside yurts. It's very low tech.

I seem to forget how far away the UP is!

Oh and I have a Platinum New England pass at Sunday River, to also get the base Ikon included for Diva West. I’m not even sure what the friend pass percentage off is this year, but happy to offer it to you if you ever want to visit. I think it depends on time of year and day on how good the deal really is, but I don’t usually ever end up using mine so they will most likely be available all season.

I would be interested in taking you up on that. I love Sunday River!

Hello! Using the Indy Pass in the northeast can be great fun. I and another Diva did a 1-week ski safari based in the Berkshires last season. Even though it was over a holiday weekend, we didn't spend much time waiting in lift lines. Plus using Indy, if we only skied for the morning, it still felt like a worthwhile ski day. I checked out Catamount and West Mountain for the first time. Had two good days at Berkshire East. One of the days a couple other Divas did a day trip to join us at Berkshire East.

Waterville Valley is another good Indy location in my opinion.

Hello. I am new to the Indy Pass this season. I am in PA and love NH. Bretton is a fav but I am happy to make turns anywhere. I will post when I head north.

Are you guys coming to Diva East in VT??

I was at that Bretton Woods event too! I can ski weekends too so let’s stay in touch!

I’m in NH so I’m up for any of the Indy resorts here.

 

[Kathy Bennett]

Which Indy Resort will open first do we think? Might be fun to do a midweek December jaunt somewhere in New England.

Not sure about the New Hampshire resorts but Jay Peak and Bolton should be open with limited terrain by then.
