Get pumped, Snowriders!

For the first time ever, your Friendly Neighborhood Officers will be taking
you to Mount Snow on January 18th at an incredible discount.

Snow is the closest big mountain ski resort in VT--2.5 hours away from
Boston--- with 3200 ft summit elevation, 80 trails and 20 lifts and 80%
snowmaking coverage. This resort has a nice mix of beginner, intermediate
and expert terrain, including some famous black diamonds such as RIPCORD and
JAWS.

At this time, there is 98% acreage open, with 36 miles of trails, an average
of 20-24" base, frequent grooming /snow making, and 15" of new snow in the
past week. But, be sure to bundle up! Their average temperatures range in
the mid-teens to mid-twenties, with upstream winds averaging 20-25mph.

Better yet, we are expecting a relatively uncrowded day on the mountain due
to the Martin Luther King holiday.

*Tickets go on sale **TODAY at 4pm*, and will continue through Wednesday at
12pm. Be sure to sign up early!

The cost:

Bus: $25
Lift: $48
Rental: $34

Regular lift tickets are $75, so don't miss this sweet opportunity to shred
this bad boy on the cheap!

The bus will depart Sydney Pacific at *5:30 am, *so set your coffee makers
on automatic! We should be back by 7:30 pm.

Sincerely,

The MIT Snowriders Officers
