48 days now, and hoping to get one more in here in Michigan before heading to Abasin for Mothers Day weekend.

Mothers day Weekend should count for double days for double the fun..............dontcha think? :D
Got a total of 51 days in, though it didn't feel like it was enough, I know I'm fortunate and will embrace the wonderful season and new friends I had the good fortune to meet up with.
Its all good!

I was thinking the same thing..some people don't ski at all when they have a newborn..

I have very few regrets in life but you hit on one of them. I took several years off from skiing after my first child was born. Getting my son out on skis was something i waited too long to do but now skiing with him is a blast.

My youngest will start next season right around the time she turns 3. I've skied more since I had kids than I did before they were born, mostly due to rediscovering night skiing and having a rad little hill right down the road. My wife is one patient ski widow though. I keep reminding her that if the kids get hooked, her winter weekends may be relatively kid-free in a few years. I'm hoping she decides to tag along sometimes though. ;)

The wife got 5 days in. I wish it was more but she def. wanted to hang back with our son. Getting her out for day 1 was tough. After Sugarbush she wants to put off having a second child until after the upcoming ski season. I love her.

Mt. Washington: 11
Sugarbush: 2
Wachusett: 2
Mad River Glen: 1
Killington: 1
Cardigan: 1
Big Jay: 1
Jay Peak: 1
Tenney: 1
Moosilakee: 1

33 days


EC Lift Served:
Wachusett: 11
Mad River Glen: 6
Wildcat: 4
Cannon: 3
Burke: 2
