Snowbird has announced Nov 17th as opening day weather permitting… if things keep going the way they are, they’ll be open. Going to have to dig everything out and do a tune up on my board. ---

Still working on March. I’ll be finding out what the best week works for my buddy out there. Like I said, I’m planning to ride about 4 days out there. Seeing as it will be the end of the season around here, I should have my legs worked in by then and ready for longer riding. Might be trying to do other things to be in shape for the several riding days. ---

> [@boardjnky4](#): > > I think I am finally going to make it out west this year. Planning on going to breckenridge for 3 days in early Feb I’ve been trying every year but something seems to happen that costs me $1000+ to pay for. (fixing a car usually) I say every year I’m going to go. Ive been saving this time and think I have enough side cash to get it done. Hope it finally happens and I know if it does, I’ll have my camera, video cameras as well. If you know anyone out that way, of can ship things… I’m almost positive, you should ship your gear ground with ups/fedex instead of flying with it and paying a higher amount. They could hold it at the depot where you would ship it to, till you picked it up. ---

Oxygen at 10,000’ is a lot different than 700’. It’ll take you a few days of riding just to get used to the altitude. ---------- Post added at 04:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 PM ---------- > [@yamba6](#): > > I’ve been trying every year but something seems to happen that costs me $1000+ to pay for.

They could hold it at the depot where you would ship it to, till you picked it up. Just fly Southwest; snowboard/ski gear fly for free as long as it’s one of your 2 “free” bags. I’ve never shipped my stuff, always just checked it as part of luggage. ---

Last year I bought all new gear with the exception of my two year old board/bindings and I didn’t even go once. Year before I made it to holiday ~20 times. Hopefully this season we get some snow so I can get out there. Anyone buying season passes again? ---
