This takes it all to a new level!!

Sadly... He's a piker!

On his side, he's skied a bunch more places than I had, this year. I used to have columns for Sugarbush, Smuggs and Other. I would use my comment column to say where other was. Since I bought the condo at Sugarbush, the other columns are seldom used.

He had the conditions for every day. I only list outstanding conditions, as I seldom enter my data every day. It is stored on my watch, and every 2-7 days or so, I go thru and enter the data into the spreadsheet. At that time, I seldom remember which day was which.

And outstanding days can be outstandingly good or outstandingly bad. It can also mention who I skied with or anything else that I can remember.

Added to my data, from my watch is the time out. That also means I have Max time / day. I could have had Min and average time, but I'd need to set up another calculated column.

If I ride Slidebrook lift, it goes up and down. I have to stop the watch before getting on, so it won't show that vertical as my skiing total. This means I have a minimum time of 10 minutes,which was the time until I got on the lift, but much less than my shortest day.

Added to my spreadsheet, is cost data. The name of the sheet is Cost of Skiing. It was started to see how much I saved by having a pass. I have a column for the retail cost. I add everything I buy for skiing, and divide that by the number of days. After I bought my condo, I also started tracking the cost per day with the amortized cost of the condo.

Also added to my sheet is, which ski I used, the amount of days that ski was out, the cost of that ski and (of course) the cost per day. I also keep track of my tuning pass, stating which ski went in which day, and how many days since last it was tuned. That also gives me the amount of days each pair of skis has been used.

Like I say... He's a piker!


But as you think I really need to get out more...

Well, I'm finished for the season. I got in a banner 146 days. I had a couple days where I wondered why I was out. I had some fantastic days, where I couldn't believe more people weren't competing for that great snow.
