kfennell Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I got a call from a recruiter today for a job in San Antonio, I guess before I get talking to them too much I wanted to know if there is any skiing in the San antonio area. I don't see anything really close after a quick google, the closest seems to be the guadalupe ski plex which is 38 miles away from the office (which would be roughly near the air force base).

Baller gregy Posted November 9, 2011 Baller Share Posted November 9, 2011 There's a few public lakes in the San Antonio area. Still gotta drive some to get to them. I have a friend that's a good realtor in the area. Michele 830-612-3416. There is definitely areas of SA you don't want to live in or near.

Baller BK Posted November 10, 2011 Baller Share Posted November 10, 2011 Which base? If it's Randolph, you're only 45 min from sanmarcosriverranch.com and it's not impacted too badly during rush hour. If you're near Lackland, it's about 70 min (or 100 min during rush hour). But, Lackland's an easy 45 min commute to Medina Lake (public). If you live in northeast SA or one of the burbs in that direction, you're 25 min to zorn or 40 to smrr.

kfennell Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Yeah Randolph, the yard is in Cibolo I think it's called? Which I guess is a suburb to the NE? Is that a good area to live? And how do you join Zorn? It looks like it is owners only from what I can see online, is that the case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller gregy Posted November 10, 2011 Baller Share Posted November 10, 2011 NE has some nice areas. New Braunfels is nice also and right between San Marcos and Cibolo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller ForrestGump Posted November 11, 2011 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2011 I'm still partial to my old stomping grounds on Lake McQueeny, 30 miles east of SA. Miles of river bed to free ski on, a jump, and a slalom course near Treasure Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller BK Posted November 11, 2011 Baller Share Posted November 11, 2011 Zorn doesn't have a pay-for-pull type club but you might be able to find a lease or an available lot. SMRR has some excellent lots, but no club either. Agree with gregy's recommendations. McQueeney's great but you won't get much if any decent conditions on the slalom course or jump during may-sept; if you just want decent open water, you'll find it occasionally in the summer and daily in the winter.
