Forgot about Mad River.....
Still, ya just can't beat the bang for the buck going out west.
Sorry to hear about the accident with your friend. I hope ultimately, he healed up well. It just proves the point you always have to be watching, ready to make evasive manuvers....just the way it is.
Hey, Deer Valley is a blast resort, my wifes favorite. They sure know how to take care of the skiers and the terrain.
Have a great one,
Gary
