Need an edit I will be in the 70 + range from the 60 Plus I thought would end up with.

Done.

Bob R · Apr 23, 2007, 12:52 PM

Cool. Quick also. thankx

kcyanks1 · Apr 23, 2007, 1:30 PM

I'm counting my 10 days + 1.5 hours (an 11th day) as 11-20, it that's OK. Please give me that much

While I would love to have 20, 50, or 100 days, I'm probably only a day or so below what I've been doing the past few years. Hopefully I'll do a better job next year, or even get another day or two this year if things are looking good the first weekend in May.

**JimG.** · Apr 23, 2007, 1:32 PM

At 53 through today.

One more day left somewhere in VT next Sunday 4/29.

I'll call it 53 times on snow.

However, I am compelled to qualify that number with the fact that I teach part-time and, sometimes, I spend a significant amount of the day on beginner terrain.

My breakdown is as follows:
Stowe 3X
Stratton 1X
Bolton Valley 1X - 1st time
Mad River Glen 1X - 1st time
Pico 1X - 1st time - Special Day
Gore 1X
Whiteface 2X
Catamount 4X or 5X - 1st time
Royal Mountain 2X - 1st time
Jiminy Peak - Remainder

Highlights:

Skiing with Jeb Boyd of the PSIA National Alpine Demonstration team
Meeting Stu Campbell.
Skiing with Jay Baranger and his crew from Catamount
Skiing and instructing with my colleagues from Jiminy Peak
My night adult class at Jiminy Peak
Skiing with my old pals at Whiteface
Introducing myself to Freddy Anderson (as I do every year) and pointing out that my two boys started skiing with the Schenectady Ski Club at Maple Ski Ridge.
My boys asking to ski on National and Liftline at Stowe
My boys asking to ski Skyward and Cloudspin at Whiteface
Skiing North American at Stratton with my daughter Emily who was five at the time.
My boys asking if they could join the race team - interclub (rec or house)

Regrets - Things to look forward to fixing next season:

Not getting my wife on snow enough
Not getting to Magic, Bromley, Smugglers, Jay Peak
Not getting to Snow Ridge, Hunter
Not skiing at Maple Ski Ridge after skiing at least one time in each of the past five years.
Not skiing the slides on 4/21 when we were invited
Not skiing with any Azers
(Not) Running out of vacation time
(Never) Giving up on the season in early Feb

Would I go out again? Yes. But I have no idea how I could pull it off. I am out of vacation time. Soccer and SAT testing seasons have started.

So I assume your answer was "no"? How old? Maybe next year?

The answer was yes. I was so happy.

Ben is 11 and Matt is 9.

It will be a short while before they toast me completely. Hopefully, my wife and daughter will still ski with me.

Next year? The Slides. I'll hook up with someone who's been before.
