    Default Snowboarding season...

    It looks like snowboarding season is open. I'm heading to Gatlinburg in 2 weeks for a cabin trip. I've been dying to break in my new board and gear. Has anybody been yet this year? Cataloochee/Maggie Valley or Sugar Mountain?

    I checked the other day and Cataloochee is closed, due to rain. Me and some friends go to Gatlingburg once every year, however, they are always packed. That and people are always sitting in the middle of the way.

    I'm heading to Wyoming on Monday for work and might end up going boarding. If not, I'll definitely go when I get back home. I live a little over an hour from Cataloochee. If anyone want to meet up sometime between the 19th and the 27th, we'll hit the slopes.

    Just got back from Gatlinburg on Sunday. It was awesome. Went boarding on Friday night in 8-10 inches of fresh powder.

    I went up to sugar a week ago, They had just gotten a foot of snow. It was great, but they were still blowing which sucks to go through.

    Forgot to mention I went up to Cataloochee on Sunday and it was pretty awesome. Only 2 hours and 20 minutes from my girlfriends house in Flowery Branch.
