Skied somewhere in the sixties for my yearly number. I no longer keep track exactly, but thats close. Past 3 years I have done in the eighties, so not bad but not definitely short. This was doen with working 6 days a week, minimum of 60 hours a week of work, usually more (although I do work at the mtn., but not in a skiing role).
I only had 1 real powder experience all winter. 9-10 inches the last Friday night of X-mas break. Was a real fun night of skiing. I did quite well in advancing my racing however and was very happy with my results in my 2 leagues.
I was a bit disappointed in the # of mtns I skied(6), but did ski Stowe for the first time, although it was late spring bumps, nut I would love to try it mid winter. The other place I went quite a bit was Bromley, had not been there since I was a little kid. I dd not get in any earned turns this winter(thats what I get for buying AT boots!)

Mad River Mountain, Ohio? :lol:
I had a pretty good season, in spite of the lack of snow. Started at the River in October and ended the season there in April. Probably got around 30 days or so. Two days at the Loaf and one at Saddleback late in the season. Had only one powder day in the East. The highlight of the year was going to Jackson Hole in late February into March and doing the Steep and Deep Camp. We had fresh snow three out of the four days of camp. A truly amazing mountain. I got my two seconds of fame in one of the Steep & Deep clips.
I'm at 1:45 - 1:47.

That is awesome that you can ski so many days and work all those hours.
I manage the ski shop on property. My shop is 100 ft to the main lift. I am in 2 race leagues a week, plus ski any night I want till 10pm(I work till 4, or 8 depending on the night). Every day off I had but 1 was spent at a ski resort this winter.
What makes me ski the most is that I move up there for the winter, so I dont have many friends who are not at the mtn or crazy about skiing. So, when we hang out, it is usually on the ski slopes.
Thanks for this. But, why no Sunday River?
The only possible explanation is that the assignment was given to a non-skiing intern who could not tell the difference between this and MRG.
