What about the snowfall?  It seems to be similar to VT (@ 250
inches/season).  I generally prefer resorts with more snowfall.  However, do
they suffer the same thaw/freeze cycles we do?  Any thoughts?

Wow, prices haven't gone up much since his editorship, Telenaut, and I were
there two years ago.  The town of Pincher Creek doesn't have a lot to do,
but who cares?  Castle Mtn. is awesome.  The drive from the town to the
mtn. is pretty easy, the food is cheap, the people are nice, and the
terrain is outstanding.

Only question is where to fly into... It's a pretty good poke from
Calgary...

I belive Jim Crowley has been to Castle Mtn. as well.  Didn't he propose to
his wife there or something like that?
