Which mountain

[Quicksilver]

This winter im going to go on a little ski trip. Its only going to be for like a weekend but I dont know where to go. I was thinking of Whiteface, Killington, Sugarbush, and Stow. Which one do you guys think I sould go to? Feel free to post other choices if you want but they cant be more than 3 hours away from Scranton,Pa.

man just get a flight to italy, you can stay with me or allz we have spare room for anyone, all it really is payment for flight (you can get that cheap) transfers, that doesnt cost anything hardly, then lift pass(ok that costs quite a bit actually forgot about that) and food. ok so your looking at umm $400 maybe.

Ok so I talked to my mom (since im only 16) and she said that I might actually be able to go. The only thing is she needs to find out more about it and what not. But Ill keep you guys updated.

Quicksilver, I'm organising the Italian contest so if you need any sort of info don't hesitate to contact me, I'll get back to you in no time.

Ok I have a couple of questions

1. Where exactly in Italy is it

2. How much are the lift tickets

3. How much do I need to pay for a hotel room

4. How much spending money should I bring

Thats it for right now. Im sure ill have more later.

Here's answers to a few of your doubts.

1. Where exactly in Italy is it

It's in a region called TRENTINO (N-E Italy), there is a big resort which is connected to many small towns. The most famous amongst these is Madonna Di Campiglio, but we will all be lodging in Marilleva 1400 (this number is the altitude in meters, theres another Marilleva at 900).

2. How much are the lift tickets

Lift tickets for 5 days will be €159, which grants access to 140 lifts and over 340 km of slopes.

3. How much do I need to pay for a hotel room

Better talk to tommy and allz about this, they are organizing the accomodation.

4. How much spending money should I bring

Depends, want to live on Caviar & Cristal for a week...? Hehe I'd bring some 150-200 dollars for food and extras (restaurants, pubs whatever...)

Hope this is of some help to you.
