[ChineseSkiClub] Re: Mammoth & Tahoe Ski Trip (03/11-17/2014)

Two have committed (air booked) to this trip, and two others are still thinking. I have a friend at Heavenly, and he ski 180 days a year at Heavenly. For this season, my plan is to ski only one day at Heavenly (because its lift ticket is not covered by the Mountain Collective pass). Since we visit Squaw, which is in Lake Tahoe area, we will stop by Heavenly – the most beautiful ski resort in the States.

Since we will need a rental car, when you book your flights, be sure you will arrive at RNO (Reno Airport) on 03/11/2014 at around or *before 5pm* local time. On 03/17/2014, your flight's departure time from RNO back to your city will need to be at around or *after 3pm* local time. I have reserve a Jeep Grand Cherokee if we have only 4 people going. If we have more people joining this trip, they will either arrange their own rental car or we will need to get a large SUV.

This idea is brewing! I don't call this a ski trip because we will enjoy some other winter adventures beside skiing. We will skiing/snowboarding at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort for 3 days (or maybe 2 days there and 1 day at Grand Targhee). We will visit Yellowstone National Park via snowmobiles to see the beatiful winter view, wildlife, geysers, especially the Old Faithful. Furthermore, we will take a non-traditional dogsled tour to a famous natural hot springs. Why it is non-traditional? Because we will be learning how to drive a team of Husky dogs, and we will drive the team by ourselves! It will have tons of fun!

因為黃石公園的冬天風景更美但是一般人無法進去 - 它只開南側門 (靠近 Jackson Hole) 的門 ... 只讓 special tours 進去國家公園裡! 老忠實間歇泉冬天噴出更壯觀 ... tour 只有: bus tour (車子不是用輪子的是履帶車的) 或者 snowmobile tour ...

The beaufy of Yellowstone in winter is beyond anybody's imagination! However, Yellowstone closes most of their gates and opens only the South Gate, which is near Jackson Hole. Only special tours can access the park in the winter. They include bus/coach tour or snowmobile tour. The snowmobile is what we are going to take in order to cruise the park and see the Old Faithful.

[ChineseSkiClub] Re: 2010 Volkl Unlimited AC50 for Sale

The snow season is coming soon. If you are thinking about upgrading your skis to a high-end one, this might be interest you!

Before posting this advertisement to graigslist, I would like to give our members the priority to consider this first.

Also, after the selling of this pair, I won't be selling my used skis for at least few years (because my next pair will be customed to my size).

You need to consider this offer if you are a male, with one of the following profiles: strong skier in 170 cm, advanced skier in 175 cm, or novice skier in 180 cm.

2010 Volkl Unlimited AC50, Gold Medal award, German made, 170 cm, Ask for: $325 (75% off)!

They are high performance and well-maintained. They have been used for only few times in ski trips. I have other pairs for teaching and regular skiing. Let me know ASAP if you are interested.

(FYI that overstock sells this exact same model and same size for $770+shipping+?tax)

Re: [ChineseSkiClub] Re: Ski Trips for Winter 2013-14

Dear all,

Last year we used Dropbox to exchange our pictures but Dropbox's free storage space only has 2G and it is too small for video clips.

Now I found a good news that China's big internet companies such as 百度云盘offer 2T free space and 360云盘 offer 36T free space. So we would have no more problem to store our all skiing/snowboarding pictures/video clips/movies without losing quality.

I would think China company's cloud service would crash the Dropbox or Box or Google drive or SkyDrive them all.

One of the best ballet companies (if not the best) Mariinsky Ballet (Kirov Ballet) is coming to Kennedy Center playing Swan Lake. They come to Kennedy Center once a year, but last time that they played Swan Lake here was more than 10 years ago. The tickets are on sale now, and all tickets will be sold out very soon (based on my prior experience and especially this is a very famous ballet show).

[ChineseSkiClub] Mariinsky Ballet: Swan Lake

09/11/2013 - Chena River Riverboat Discovery & Fairbanks Departure

昨天與銀河, 北斗七星 (大熊座), 北極星 (小熊座), 和北極光一塊狂歡了一夜 ...

(再貼一次北斗七星與北極星被捕捉在一個畫面裡: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ChineseSkiClub/iJCFoI_Mjww/5aGtxRw4MYkJ)

今天是這整個阿拉斯加旅遊的最後一天, 天氣不太好, 雨下得滿大的! 心想還好昨晚有幸能看到精采的自然奇觀, 否則今天在這種大雨當中什麼星星都看不到了! 中午前收拾好了行李辦理好了退房之後, 就在市區開車逛逛吃個午餐, 下午的活動是切納河發現號輪船之旅 (Chena River on the Riverboat Discovery), 是乘坐

外輪船的河輪 (Sternwheeler Riverboat) 在切納河上遊河, 遊河活動總共三個半小時

午餐之後開車到河輪碼頭, 這個登船口叫做發現號貿易站 (Discovery Trading Post), 他們這是有百年歷史的家族生意, 現在已經是第五代在經營, 生意好的不得了! 停車場上又來了好幾台的荷蘭公主遊輪公司的大巴, 一大堆人排隊登船, 這艘河輪是第三代的發現號 (Discovery III) 載客量 900 人, 船緩緩駛出 ... 遊河的節目就是給遊客們對阿拉斯加民俗生活的介紹, 遊客坐在船裡, 解說員介紹各個景點的東西 (當然除了介紹之外, 他們也順便推銷一些東西) ... 先是船外河面上有一台水上飛機表演來回起飛降落 (因為阿拉斯加許多地方是沼澤區所以只有水上飛機才能到達), 船沿著切納河緩慢前行, 乘客可以看到兩岸的住家, 有的是豪宅, 有的是破爛房, 但是幾乎河邊兩岸每家都有小船或是水上飛機停靠, 船接著到了一家養了許多哈士奇犬 (Husky), 原來他們是阿拉斯加有名的狗拉雪橇比賽數屆冠軍的人家 (Susan Butcher Dogsled Team Kennels), 他們將幾隻雪橇狗串連著拉著一台小車飛快地奔跑, 接著船開到下一站是養馴鹿 (Reindeer) 的人家, 他們放了一群馴鹿到河邊讓大家近距離觀看, 接著到了一個他們河裡捕魚的地方有個捕魚水車 (Fish Wheel), 岸上的人展示如何將捕到的鮭魚處理後燻乾, 下一站是到一個阿拉斯加原住民 (Athabascan Indian) 的村子, 大家下船去村子裡參觀民俗與服裝, 最後船打個大迴轉開回到原來的登船口, 上了岸之後逛逛他們的發現號貿易站, 買了些紀念品, 結束這個行程!

(建議: 如果去阿拉斯加有個紀念品可以買, 就是他們的州旗! 深藍色的底做夜空, 上面繡有有七顆黃顏色的北斗七星, 與遠處一顆黃顏色的北極星)

晚上沒有其他安排了, 就是去機場還租車等飛機 (半夜 12 點起飛的), 租車還車都是 DIY, 租車時在櫃台拿了車鑰匙, 車停在停車場沒人管理, 還車時開回停車場之後, 將車鑰匙還回櫃檯就好, 費爾班克斯的機場是個國際機場但是非常小, 只有六個登機門, 航空公司櫃檯工作人員全部都是同一家外包公司的人員 (不是航空公司的人), 半夜沒什麼旅客所以安全檢查很快就通過, 到了裡面登機時又發現, 剛剛在外面櫃台工作的人員現在過來裡面登機口服務登機了! (人真少!) 整個加拿大及阿拉斯加的旅程在此時結束, 心裡很高興因為幾個當出期待的目標都滿足了:

1. 各種類型的冰河看了超級多 - 在加拿大洛磯山脈及阿拉斯加的幾個國家公園 (基奈峽灣國家公園, 威廉王子峽灣, 及迪納利國家公園), 冰河也在加拿大的哥倫比亞冰原踩上去玩了!

2. 野生動物也看到許多 - 座頭鯨, 海獅, 海豚, 海獺, 海豹, 無數的海鳥及禿鷹, 黑熊, 大灰熊, 馴鹿, 狼, 大白山羊, 及麋鹿

3. 風景及名勝 - 維多利亞, 路易絲湖, 班芙, 及阿拉斯加數不盡的美麗風景

4. 北極光 - 不但看到了北極光, 也看到了傳說中的北斗七星(大熊座)與北極星(小熊座), 更看到了一生難得一見的北極光炫爛的舞蹈!

Grand Teton in winter is beautiful, and Old Faith in the snow is especially gorgeous. We will fly to Jackson Hole, ski 2 or 3 days there, visit Yellowstone National Park for 2 or 3 days, and then optionally fly/drive to Alta/Snowbird for 2 or 3 days of skiing.

2014-01 (Martin Luther King Day) - Aspen/Snowmass

Fly to Aspen and ski 2 or 3 days for a long weekend.

2014-02 (Presidents' Day) - Mammoth and Squaw

Fly to Mammoth Yosemite Airport, ski Mammoth for 2 or 3 days for a long weekend, and then optionally fly/drive to Squaw for 2 or 3 days of skiing.

2014-03 - Whistler Blackcomb
Fly to Seattle or Vancouver, drive up to Whistler, ski 3-5 days there, and enjoy the best Hong Kong cuisine in Vancouver.

Re: [ChineseSkiClub] Re: 3-4 day trip to Snowshoe around New Year or later? they have 3 day for $99 deal

it doesnot have to be 7 consecutive days. it can be 2 separate trips or even 3

3~4 days sounds more reasonable.

7spring has this super 7 card that costs $349 (include 7 days). So it is about $50/day + hotel is less expensive + easier drive maybe? so with those combined, i think 7 spring could be a better option imho if you plan to visit them 7 days this season.

I have purchased a 3 days for $99 with no blackout days pass from snowshoe. But lodging there is pretty expensive.

I am thinking if we go Jan 1st - Jan 5th, we only need two vacation days and can get 3 full days of ski without exhausting from driving. Anyone interested? I am open to other time as well. But I already have a couple friends interested for New Year so it is ideal.

The passes are on sale at ski shop events around DC area. here is the link
