Your Official 2006-07 Ski Season Breakdown Thread

**Greg** · Mar 30, 2007, 8:40 AM

We've done this in years past (2004-05, 2005-06). Along with the poll above, let's use this thread to discuss our individual ski seasons. How many times did you get out? Was this above or below average? How would you classify your ski season overall? I know some folks are done, but I'm not through yet so I'll update once I put away the skis for good.

Oops, forgot to snowboard, too busy hiking.

Can't answer this just yet, I'm at 38, hope to get enough to put me in the 41-50 range. Unfortunetely with the way this season is going, there's no telling how much more I'll be able to get in.

snowmonster · Mar 30, 2007, 8:55 AM

At 24 now and looking at between 4 to 6 days to go. That puts me squarely in the 21 - 30 range. Great season so far. It's not over but the fat lady is already warming up in the wings.

hoping for 100+ but may not happen as i need to go another 15 days, and i'm starting to get a bit lazy. the ball is in mother natures court. i'm not even a little sick of skiing, but a bit physically tired.

I may have forgotten one or two, but I'm pretty sure my ninth day out was my last. I had planned on 25-30 for the season, and would've likely hit about 25 had my season not ended prematurely on Feb. 11th.

drjeff · Mar 30, 2007, 11:25 AM

Between this weekend and next weekend, I'll hit 39. After that I have 2 straight weekends with "flatland" commitments, and somehow I don't forsee too much being available the last weekend of April that's within reasonable round trip day driving range for me from CT.

So 39 is what it will be for me. Given how things started out, or maybe (r$%^ed out would be a better way to put it) and that I lost by my count 7 days that i normally would have skied under in normal years, I can't be too upset with the season. And between my wife and I, by the end of next weekend, with what we paid for out All 4 one passes, less the Edge dollars we had, it will end up being about $10 per day. Not bad at all in my book!

I'll be in the 60's. 70's will be hard with places closing early.

AdironRider · Mar 30, 2007, 3:46 PM

Im looking at low 50's. Ive been doing well with each passing season I add about ten days.

Zand · Mar 30, 2007, 4:05 PM

I'll end with 31, same as last year.

Wachusett (21): 12/8, 12/9, 12/12, 12/15, 12/18, 1/11, 1/12, 1/18, 1/19, 1/25, 1/26, 1/30, 2/2, 2/7, 2/9, 2/16, 2/23, 3/8, 3/13, 3/22, 4/1
Killington (3): 3/25, 3/26, 3/27
Stowe (2): 3/17, 3/18
Stratton (1): 12/28
Sugarbush (1): 2/11
Mad River Glen (1): 2/12
Berkshire East (1): 2/22
Mount Snow or Sunapee (1): 4/5

By Month:

December: 6
January: 7
February: 8
March: 8
April: 2

No personal records for me this year. I tied last year's count of 31. Next year, I'm going for 40+ with more Wachusett trips, more Beast trips, maybe a couple more Mount Snow trips, a Sunapee trip or two, Stowe, MRV, Killington, Burke, Jay all in the offering. Hopefully I'll get pre-Thanksgiving skiing in for the first time in my life and hopefully some late April skiing as well.
