First Runs of the Season: Two Days Skiing in the White Mountains!

First Runs of the Season: Two Days Skiing in the White Mountains!

December 2018 · 2 min read

Hey guys! Hope you had a great holiday!

I thought I'd share my first ski trip of the season with you! I already shared my GoPro video I made a couple days ago of it, in case you missed it, catch it here: https://d.tube/#!/v/seangold/ylw9kwlr

Moving on, it was about 5 years or so since I last put my skis on and hit the slopes. I used to be able to ski for pretty much free/cheap by volunteering at the mountain, then things changed and it got quite pricey if you didn't have a seasons pass, about 90$ a day for a lift ticket, yikes.

So that put a damper on my skiing for a while, plus other things.

This year I was able to score a deal on some tickets so I made the 2 hour trek up to the mountains from Boston to hit the frosted slopes!

At first, I was a bit unsure how well I'd pick it back up again, if I'd be falling all over the place, or if it would be like riding a bike. And if you saw my video, you'd know that within an hour I was hitting 45mph flying down from the top of the mountain. So that was a relief. I wasn't trying to learn all over again. And speaking of the top of the mountain, check out this view!

I've been skiing at this mountain since I was a kid, and I knew most of the ski patrol and workers there since forever. We'd duck into the woods and have fires, and explore all sorts of places. So I decided to visit one of my favorite spots, known as the bird sanctuary, and you can see why we called it that below.
