Ah... my favorite time of the year. Ski season!

Anybody here ski or snowboard? If you live in New England, what mountains do you go to?

I went on a ski trip last year and it was the first time I had every been in snow in my life. That was 16 years. I liked skiing. I had trouble getting ones that fit because I chose a size too small and my feet were getting really sore and tight. I was with a group taking lessons and I kept getting behind. I was also getting very tired and dehydrated. I went over to a group of ski instructors and showed them this card I had identifying me as an autistic and how they should deal with me. They decided to give me individual lessons. That was the first time I ever used that card. It is also the only time I have used it, too. I think skiing isn't my thing. I'd do it again if given the opportunity but I don't live in a place close to snow. I'd probably have to get lessons all over again.

I've never been skiing. I live a sheltered life.

I know how to ski and snowboard..I snowboard more, though.

We're going on a skiing trip next week for a school trip.

yah, I learned to ski first, and when I got older I learned how to snowboard, and I like to snowboard better, a small mountain is like 15 mins from me, so I generally go there, even though its a hill, its still easy. But if I like go on a family trip, or with family friends I go to Stratton, VT which is the best mountain as far as I am concerned.

I love snow sports of any kind. I've skied and Speed skated. I use to go upstate here in NY but I haven't gone in a couple of years. Hopefully I'll go skiing sometime in Feb.

I've never gone there. Sounds good though. I've skied in the South Fallsburgh area and in February I'll try the Pennsylvania areas to see how that's like.
