New member from Atlanta here. This seems to be the best forum for skiing around so I figured I should join up. :)

I'm fairly new to skiing, I'm early 30s and have only been doing it 2 years but of course as soon as I tried it I immediately loved it so I'm trying to get in as much time as i can to learn and get better, which is not always easy being from the south with a lack of snow. I've been to CO 3 times so far (Steamboat and Copper), and I did a trip to Argentina this summer (Cerro Castor). This year I'm doing Big Sky, Vail, and Breck, so it should be a great year. Hope to maybe meet some of you all someday. Cheers.

Well, you already have the hard part figured out..where to ask your questions and get the best answers. ;) . When will you be headed to Big Sky? I am not sure if you saw that we are having our annual Gathering there this year? Also, when willl you be headed to Breck? We have a lot of our "regulars" skiing out of there like @Doug Briggs and @Monique.

Welcome. I’m also from the snow-challenged state of GA. Your ski choices for this year are getting some early season luck. Good job

Hmm, perhaps a 11/11 Founding Day/Launch anniversary get together at Fado is in order. I’ll be coming back in town from a 3 day golf bender and, though I’m not too interested in watching Falcons-Browns, I’ll probably need an afternoon Guinness or 3 to take the edge off.

Welcome aboard and we'll answer any wuestions you have with 12 different opinions . I'd say contact me when you are in Colorado to get shown around but I don't do Breck or Flail. I will grab a malty beverage with you though.

I'm doing Big Sky Dec 15-21 and Breck on Jan 17-21.

That's great. Haven't been to Fado in a while, I do love Guinness though.
