I count resorts, because it's easier to remember. So, 20 to 30 different hills a season, one to ten days each. Most are one day affairs. Maybe forty to fifty days? -- // Walt // // There is no Volkl Conspiracy |

"SKIMORE" wrote in message ups.com... How many days do people in this group actually ski each year? It varies widely. I think that some don't ski at all. Some put on skis but do something that can't really be described as skiing. For about 20 years I skied about 100 days per year. Now I ski 5-10. |

When I lived in Amarillo, it was 30 to 35 days per year (yep, 8 hours
driving to ski CO / NM is just a day trip, right?). Now I'm in Alabama.... the powder captial of the world... er no - maybe not... anyway, now its a few days to WV (min 8 hours to anything called skiing), with a week in CO or WY. maybe 10 total now... I'm always in the market for a good 40 hr per month job that pays an incredible amount of money... in the rockies... anybody hiring???? - Steve "SKIMORE" wrote in message ups.com...

I count, I keep a database with resort, date, conditions, and price.
This helps me make my decisions for the following season and look for deals. 30-40 days per year. Looking at 40-50 this year since I got a good deal.

I get onto the mountain somehing over 100 days a season, but don't feel it necessary to get first and last lift. I can do that because I live just a few miles from the base, and am too old for anyone to hire. Jack |

ups.com... How many days do people in this group actually ski each year? Every time I get over 80 days I find myself wishing to do something else with more of my days. Now I get about 20 in, but I enjoy them more. There's nothing like hanging around the top of the mountain at 5:30 in the spring waiting for patrol sweep to go down and leave you with a little solitude. J. Urrrk - Fashionably late. |
