Got my Revolts in last night, and I'm planning on a quick trip out to one of the local hills this Saturday to put them through their paces, and get used to skiing again after 5 years of snowboarding.

I was planning on hitting little ol' Cannonsburg, the closest hill to me in Grand Rapids, but Boyne Mountain and Crystal Mountain (I use the word "mountain" lightly in both cases) are definitely close enough and quite a bit more fun.

Hey, just saw this post.
We are planning to head to Crystal this weekend (1/21), and possibly hit up Bittersweet. Are you still wanting to go?

Since you guys are already in Michigan, how come you aren't attending the Midwest Meet?

"already in Michigan" is a bit of a deceiving statement.

the drive from West Michigan to Mt Bohemia is a 10 1/2 hour drive, with good weather, unfortunately.

Might I suggest Caberfae Peaks? It's about mid-way between Crystal and Bittersweet, and has more vertical than either. http://caberfaepeaks.com/

My as-of-yet-unused season pass says Caberfae sounds good.

I'm in for Crystal on Sunday, having the extra day to get my boot situation sorted out would be nice. Pete, I'll PM you my number, let me know what your plan is.

Do you guys want to meet up there or car pool up there? I do have one of the ski free things that you guys can use if you want.
