Hi Dan, thanks for the information, i should join the group this year. I will drive from Montreal and take the 89 which i think is the best road unless you propose something else. At what time you have the meeting at Montpellier in the morning or is it better to join directely at Stowe ?
What's about the hotel, price and reservation?

I think 89 is definitely the best route from Montreal. Most of us will be driving up Friday night and staying at a local hotel, so it'll be easiest to either stay in the same hotel we do or meet us at the mountain.

I haven't published the hotel & pricing information yet, because I'm waiting to get 15 confirmed attendees first. If I don't have 15 people confirm within the next week or so, I won't be able to get us the group buy on tickets at Stowe, and we'll have the event at Sugarbush instead. Stowe lift tickets are normally $92/day, and nobody wants to pay that much. Right now, I have enough people who've said "I think I can make it", but not enough who've said "yes, I'll definitely be there".

Will you bringing anyone with you? More confirmed people are better, as they help get us to that group buy number.. :)

Awesome--it'll be great to meet you! I'll put you down for Saturday and Sunday. If you can let me know about your friend as soon as possible, (s)he can help our numbers, too. Thanks! :)

Interesting. I might be able to join. When are you looking for commitment?

Hi Lee,

Right now, I'm looking for commitment ASAP so I can hit the group minimum for Stowe. If I can cross that threshold and lock in the resort and lodging info, I'll relax about it a bit. I need to make a call on this by the middle of next week, so I'm running out of time. If the "I'm pretty sure" people all convert into "confirmed", we'll have the 15. Until I have those, I'll keep arm-twisting. :)

If that timeline is unrealistic for you, you can probably hold off until a day before the event. Right now it's all about hitting the group number. Once we do/don't do that, things get more flexible.

Thanks,


Dan

Hi Dan,

I PMed you with some questions. I don't know if you've seen them. Let me know, because I am close to committing. Thanks.

Hi Lee,

I got your message and sent a reply. Sorry for the delay; I've been away from a computer for a few days due to skiing. :)

I hope you can make it!

Hi Dan,

Count me as 95% which could turn into 100% within a day or two.

Hi folks,

Sorry for the delay on the final details. We weren't able to hit the minimum for group pricing at Stowe, so are redirecting to Sugarbush. The place we've stayed the past couple years is fully booked, so the new plan is to stay at the Waitsfield Inn, where I've got a block of rooms reserved. They don't have a hot tub, but they do have a bar and a full breakfast. Please refer to my first post for the final details; I've edited it so it's now current.

I look forward to seeing everybody!

Looking forward to the 4th NE PMTS Shindig. I will be coming in early with the plan to ski Friday, Saturday and Sunday. If anyone is in the area for Friday but hates to ski the weekends, come join me. Current plan is to check out Glen Ellen on Friday.

I booked in the inn Fri/Sat nights. I'll probably get up there relatively late Fri night, probably 10-11ish.

What's the meet up plan for Saturday morning? I'd be happy to PM email/phone contact info.

BTW, I just picked up lift tickets at EMS. $74 any day, no restrictions, good through end of season. This is a bit cheaper than purchasing online but do not have to be 2-day tickets with particular dates.

We'll meet up Saturday morning at breakfast, usually around 7:30ish (this inn claims to serve a real breakfast, which should be an improvement over the usual continental). This is a pretty casual crew, so we're not racing to get to the mountain for first chair. I'm PMing you my contact info now.

Look forward to seeing everybody!
