30518425 Is a three day trip over a regular weekend out of the question? Isn't it worth a_{day off work to miss the crowds?}

30551552

It is hard for us working folk to get more than a couple week days off from work, so the longer trips are usually not doable for us. I'd like to ski Mt Baker someday. Maybe help organize a bus trip if we could find decent lodging.

30556955 What a great option, to be able to do the survey online!

30595284 Prefer NOT to do a trip on President's (or MLK) weekend. 3 day on another_{weekend would be just fine.}

30599718 Both the train trips sound good to me. Is the Colorado train trip much longer_{than going to Montana?}

30607957 I would not go on the Canadian trip if my trip flies and the times are_overlapping.

30647930

I would love to go on all of these trips, but the calculation will ultimately be financial. Ski safari and other "independent" trips, and also weekend bus trips, appeal for this reason. I like the idea of a race as part of a trip. It's good to have a group activity on and/or off the mountain to keep the group engaged.

30758314

We've primarily done the FW trips. I'm into quality skiing, not cheap skiing. Would rather pay for the better conditions, than go when the lift tickets are free, but the skiing might be marginal.

30769144 I think we should do a couple of weekend bus trips, maybe one 2 day and one 3_day.

30775962

What is meant by SWAG? What does the phrase "if we posses" mean? For the Tahoe trip, you asked if 5 days was a good option, but gave me no chance to answer. Pretty good, all in all, though.

31820896

Although I am still working full-time, I can still take a few trips during the ski season. However, I do not want to take too many weekends away because they are precious family time for me. Kids are busy with school work during the weekdays and so I prefer to take trips that do not eat into weekend family times. Consequently I seldom go on Mt. High trips although there are many that I would love to take. Ps, since skiing depends so much on weather, I often take spur of the moment type of trips to near-by Mountains during the

31825636 haven't been on a trip, don't know if I would. . .

31861350 Someone told me that Tamerack is no longer open! Is that true?

31886993 Thanks for being flexible and letting us drive/fly on our own and bring the kids!

32057503 3-day bus trip .. avoid holiday crowds Train trip to either, depends on time_{spent, dates, cost}

32058481 Open to anything for Tahoe areas Great group, enjoyed the Bachelor Blitz in_April

33039354 You guys do a fantastic job and I LOVED my trips thus far with the club. I trust_{you will plan a fantastic time and I am game. Thank you for your efforts!!!}

33209871

I'm answering as if I can ski next season. I tore my achilles tendon and am still on the heal. The doc says I "may" be able to ski next year. I may need to take a season off. Time will tell he says.

34234345

What about some 2 or 3 day trips during the week? Anthony lakes or Crystal, Bachelor etc. It's too crowded and expensive to ski these places during the week.

I join Mt. High last December, but most of my ski trip [with another club] kept
