East Coast Sunshine

Im 28 now and have been playing in the the white mix since I was about 12. I spent the first 20 years of my life up in the NE states, so the Wisp is the first place that comes to mind. I have not had a chance to get out west and test the slopes there, but hopefully one day!

Do yourself a favor and don't go ski out West.

It'll totally ruin skiing in the East.

No worries, I am getting my way out there and yes I know nothing compares to the West Coast snows. I am looking to hit up anywhere in Denver sometime next year. I have to at least say I have been out west once, right?

Umm.... Denver isn't actually on the West Coast. It's the Midwest.

I'm telling you - it'll ruin you for skiing in the East...

If it is west of the Mississippi it's the west. Or "out west" as the ice coasters like to call it. Maybe not the west coast, but still west. I live in the midwest.

Riding out west hasn't ruined me for riding around here. Then again some of us aren't real bright anyhow.
