Don’t you think that maybe something else like stamp collecting, bird watching, or pornography would be mentally healthier hobby choices? You seem obsessed.

An actuary comes up with the probabilities of things happening. They are usually employed by insurance companies, to help the companies figure out premiums and the odds of having to pay claims.

At 21 now. Wouldn't know if Facebook didn't have a snowdays counter. I was competing against teenagers.

I'm at 60 right now, but the weather forecast doesn't look that great from here on out. It might be the end for me. Oh, well -- it was a great season, and even if I don't get in any more days, today was terrific. A good way to end the season.

I had a decent season at around 40 days. ( I don't really keep a running tally). I'm out almost every weekend day between the beginning of December to the end of March. I definately get my money's worth out of my season pass + a trip to Utah and at least one trip to Northern New England.(next year hope to make that two). Now I,m catching up on all the home front work I've been blowing off to ski.

102 total days. 52 above my previous best of 50 days. Definately the best season Ive ever had and probably ever will have. Jackson Hole had the best season on record in terms of snowfall. Snowed 101 of 128 days the resort was open, averaging 6" each day that new snow was reported. Think about that. Anyways, it was so damn good out here I didnt venture anywhere else, although thats probably going to change. Ill be hitting A Basin or Loveland for a day on my drive home, plus the 5 or so days Ill get on the pass before I leave on the 21st. Then once Im home I have a voucher for Sunday River not to mention a weekend in Tux. Should be a good cap to the season.

Days by resort so far:

Jackson Hole: 89
Grand Targhee: 5
Snow King: 6
Teton Pass: 2
