This video should pump you up to get out there: Dance Parties, High Fives, and Powder. Skiing huge lines, deep powder, or perfect corduroy is great and all, but really it&#8217;s about hanging with your friends. For our friends back east, we haven&#8217;t heard of Sugarbush or Sunday River opening any time soon (sorry!).<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/108853519\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Get stoked and see you on the slopes!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ski season is upon us!
