Resort Awards 2010: Best of the Rest

Shortest Lift Lines: Mt. Baker, Washington

Mount Baker has no hotels, no high-speed quads, and no lift lines. So go for the world-record snowfall and killer terrain. Drop the steep rollovers and trees off Chair 5 or grab your beacon, shovel, probe, and partner and head out the gate to Shuksan Arm.

Honorable Mentions: Powder Mountain, UT | Whitewater, BC | Middlebury Snow Bowl, VT

I drank the meat martini once because, well, it was on the menu. The meat fat glaze that topped my drink after two sips almost made me puke. I did finish my beverage - never leave a wounded soldier in battle - but will NEVER order it again.

Ahh, you made me long for the $125/yr midweek pass at Mad River. And for skiing 50+ days, drinking at the Hyde Away (sp?), and going up over the pass on the way back to Burlington. And of course, REAL syrup on the pancakes as one carbs up for a cold day in Vermont.

hahah 200underfoot, that is hilarious about the meat martini. I don't think I would ever order that, but would LOVE to laugh at my friends for doing so and watch as they agonizingly had to finish it!

Or move to where other members are- so you can see them more. We live in a mobile society, where people follow jobs around the country and sometimes around the world. We do this because we think increases in salary will make us happier, but the fact is that our relationships with our friends and family have a scjp dumps far greater impact on our happiness than our jobs do. So next time you think about relocating, consider that you'd need a salary increase of over $100,000 USD to compensate for the loss of happiness you'd have from moving away from your friends cissp and family. But if your relationships with your family and friends are unhealthy or nonexistent, and you are bent on moving, choose a location where you'll be mcpd making about the same amount of money as everyone else; according to research, people feel more financially secure (and happier) when they're on similar financial footing as the people around them, regardless of what that footing is.Many people expect the right job or the right career to dramatically change mcsa 2008 their level of happiness, but happiness research makes it clear that your level of optimism and the quality of your relationships eclipse the satisfaction you gain from your job. If you have a positive outlook, you will make the best of any job,
