I enjoy skiing down hill but this year has been fairly snowless in southern New England. They can make snow but they can't make winter and I enjoy moving through the winter landscape (snow-scape). To find a real winter wonderland I'd have to drive 4-5 hours (8-10 RT) to northern Vermont. I'm unwilling to drive that much when I'm equally content to ride the bike. I have a season pass at a resort that is not seeing much use. I'm hoping for one good snow storm before the season ends.
