Greg,
Wow, what a great, functional site. I love all the great information, news and resort reviews that you have. A lot of your content is from off-site, but there is nothing wrong with that -- you are creating an information portal that's simple and attractive.
A couple of things -- Headlines are meant to be ultra-summaries of a news story. Let us at least see the entire headline -- the truncated text along your left border left me annoyed that I couldn't scan down to find a story interesting to me. I understand that you need the screen real estate, but that is something you need to fix - same for the Recent Discussions -- let us see the titles.
Your navigational bar is a little too understated and a bit lost there near the top of the page but not quite. I am not a big fan of the ads, but I understand you need to make some cash.
Interesting logo you have there -- I think the orange and blue actually go pretty well. But you need something a bit more visually appealing -- a ski, mountain or some other visual element supplementing what you have or some version of it.
A great, functional site -- so few that we see here get that tag -- congratulations and good luck.
6.5/10
