Guest sierra Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 I'm new to plates so this is great news. I'll be there, hoping to meet some of "the masters" and sponge up as much info as I can. You couldn't ask for a better venue. In my humble opinion Sugarloaf is the best of the East. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derf Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 I'll try to go. Sugarloaf is not that far from Montréal and I have a stable enough job to prepare my vacations in consequence. Maybe I can try to convince others from Montréal to come with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tex1230 Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 I'll be there - and if anyone has info on the SES I'd love to try for both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted April 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 See the main page here (www.bomberonline.com) for info on the SES. There is a two-week gap between the end of the SES and start of the ECES. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holly Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 Though I'll be starting a new job this fall, my fingers are crossed that my employer will be good to me and let me take some time off to go to ECES and/or SES 06. I know Scott's really looking forward to going as well! Thanks for coordinating this! Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobdea Posted April 5, 2005 Report Share Posted April 5, 2005 but for all who have not been there the 'loaf is one of the better places to carve in the east and if conditions are good, in the country if I decide to quit my volunteer job I will see you all there :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zcarver Posted April 6, 2005 Report Share Posted April 6, 2005 I hope to be there as well. I miss that place! I just found out Okemo last day is April 10th. Oh well, my season is finish! It is a shame, they have about 83 percent open too. I was hoping for one more week. I guess Okemo aim for 150 days of skiing and that it! Boo HOO! Hey Jack, when does Sugar Loaf ends it season? I don't recall how long Sugar Loaf stays open till? Did the Mt ever stay open till the first week of May? Just wondering. For those who are still riding, ENJOYED!!!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dragonsword5 Posted April 7, 2005 Report Share Posted April 7, 2005 stupid question...i want to go to this and it will be my first one but.... is sugarloaf in Maine? i have no geographcial sense.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarvCanada Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 It's in northern Maine I think? Close to Quebec City... interesting :) is the "loaf" on top of the mountain genuine alpine... above the tree level? In the summer it's just a field of grass and brush? They groom trails through it, but do they leave a "bowl" for powder/moguls? how much vertical does the alpine have? I've never been above alpine on a ski resort; some non-ski resort mountaintops in Charlevoix (Quebec) are in the alpine... but probably just because of high wind, I'd guess their only 3000ft above sea level at summit.

Zcarver Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 Originally posted by mirror70 April 24th is the tentative official closing date. Thank you for the info Mirror!. I was asking because I thought I was going to Winslow, Maine on April 20th. I was hoping to teach a group of clients some 3d animation. I was told they are coming to NYC instead! Boo HOO! I would of like to squeeze in a 2 day trip at the loaf after the teaching assignment! Oh well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
