Some of you might be like, how does she pay for this stupidly expensive sport?

Here another day, me hard at work at the office

CONTESTS I WISH I COULD WIN AND SNOW DEALS V


(that infamous Targhee view- looking at the Tetons)

BOLTON VALLEY (VT)
Huge ski & snowboard sale this weekend at Bolton Valley. New stuff too, not just old found crap.

GRANITE GORGE (NH)
Save 10% off of season passes before 9/1/13. So, that's $369 for all season. With lift tickets at $47 a pop that's 8 days before you break even.

JACKSON HOLE (WY)
The Grand Pass is $1,275 until 9/1/13. Then it goes up to $1,695. So that's 130 days of riding/skiing. If you rode 130 days it would be around $10 a day. Or, if the lift tickets are $117 (which they are) then you ski/ride around 11 days to break even.
You also get half off tickets at all Mountain Collective Resorts (Aspen/Snowmass, Squaw/Alpine Meadows, Alta/Snowbird, Mammoth Mountain, Whistler/Blackcomb).
Student passes are $299 until 10/1/13 then they go up to $815.

GRAND TARGHEE (WY) & WORLDCAST ANGLERS
Tag your summer photos of Idaho or Wyoming with #wydahosummer @grandtargheeresort and @worldcast_gofish on Instaham and win a GoPro silver, two nights summer lodging, and two bike haul tickets.

MOUNTAIN HIGH (CA)
At this season pass party get 70% off gear and win a ton of stuff- like a trip to Steven's. Also season pass is $300 off.

SNOWBOMB (CA)
Buy this pass before 9/1/13 for $49.99. After that the pass is $150. This is a Bay Area/ Tahoe pass. You get your pick of resorts for four lift tickets from: Homewood, Sierra-at-Tahoe, Bear Valley, or China Peak. Four lift tickets for 50 bucks is pretty sweet, but you also get free tunes at five different shops and some discounted lift tickets.

SNOWSKOOL (UK)
Win a place in their two week BASI Level 1 training course in Méribel. Which you only get credit for if you are British. And you have to be a UK resident to enter. You also have to be able to get yourself to the French Alps. Two weeks in the Alps with a place to stay? Sure, I'll change citizenship.......

WARREN MIILLER
Win a trip for two to Salt Lake for Warren Miller's Ticket to Ride premier. And they let you stay in a hotel!

WHISTLER (CANADA)
Book your seven day vacation at Whistler before 8/31/13 and it's $81 for a night and a lift ticket. Pretty hard to beat.....

CONTESTS I WISH I COULD WIN AND SNOW DEALS IV


party last day of Sun Valley's 2013 season at Apples

BRECKENRIDGE & SHOCKTOP & YETI CYCLES
If you have lost your car, need a bike, and live in Breck.
Go to Seven's Restaurant, the T-Bar, and Park Ave. Pub at Breck and take out all of the other applicants for this drawing and put tons of pieces of paper with your name on them.
You will win a fancy Yeti mountain bike.

EPIC PASS
After 9/2/13 Epic pass prices go up. So if you don't know this pass is good at: Vail, Beaver Creek, Breckenridge, Keystone, Canyons, Heavenly, Northstar, Kirkwood, Afton Alps, Mt. Brighton, Arapahoe Basin, and Eldora. Pretty insane that this pass is only $689. If lift tickets are $75 at any of these resorts (they are more) then you only go 10 times to break even. If you are a local it's only $529.

FRANK 151  & U-GOD
I keep asking people if they've heard the new U-God. Then they usually laugh at me and say isn't that dude in jail forever.
So?
Anyway win a U-God shirt, new signed Keynote Speaker CD, and Keynote Speaker vinyl by tweeting or using the facebook.

KEYSTONE
If you are headed to Keystone next season and you book before 9/15/13 this link will help you save like 33% or something.

ROCK CREEK & CHACO
 i really love to yell the word chaco. it's pretty much my favorite.

ROCK THE BELLS
Do you really want to see holograms of old dirty and easy e- while hanging out with a bunch of frat boys from upstate New York?
http://www.rockthebells.net/contests/

SUN VALLEY
 Discounted pricing ends 9/2/13. Then all price passes go up, except the early/late (my pass) which can't be purchased after 11/27/13. The regular season pass is $1,649 (you could also buy a small child for this price). So, if tickets are $90 then it's 19 times to break even. After 9/2/13 that pass goes up $350. There is a new young person pass for people under 30 (the under 30 population of the Sun Valley area is about 2.2%) which is less than the 20 day- so that's def. the way to go for locals.

TAHOE VALUE EPIC PASS
You should get this pass even if you are only going to Tahoe for a week. It's $389. You get to ride Heavenly every day and Northstar and Kirkwood everyday but Sat. Plus Squaw tickets can be found for super cheap. So if tickets are $93 (Northstar) it's 5 days until you break even. Plus you get half off tickets for your heads. Price goes up after 9/2/13.

ZOZI
In this contest you get to go to Montana and have a camping butler. I would like a subway butler.

WEARING WHITE AT WINDHAM


Lil Mo is about to get married. I reminisce of past times she wore white.


Last March lil mo, amy, and i left Brooklyn in a white out blizzard for Windham.
We left around 8 PM and got to my girl's farmhouse around 2 AM.
Normally that trip takes about two hours.


The drive through the storm was so worth it.
The next dayit was a weekday and we had the hill to ourselves. With all that freshness.


Perfect day.

SNOWSHOES, POWDER, AND POPS- THE POMERELLE ADVENTURE


I didn't make it to Pomerelle last season when the lifts were running. Which is a bummer. I was raised on that hill and I do love it so. I get sucked into the Sun Valley vortex and I can't leave Baldy when I'm in Idaho. So, after Sun Valley closed- my dad and I filled the jeep up with snowshoes, skins, and the rest of our gear went to go hike the Pom.


Was pretty sure that the hike was going to be cake. So I told my dad I was probably going to get two laps in.


I'd been riding for three weeks straight. I was a machine.


 Yeah, riding lifts like a fat boy or hiking for a couple of extra turns is a lot different than snowshoeing the whole hill. Here I am wheezing and sweating bawlz.


Then there was that one perfect run. All alone, my favorite line on the hill.
As I remember I begin to drool.
Here see for yourself.



Then Blankat picked me up and we headed to Snowbird.
