earliest day: october 14th @loveland in colorado
my latest day was back in 1997 when I skied at killington on June 17th, that year they stayed open till the 22nd or something and it was the latest they ever stayed open. It was a foggy day and their were two huge bare patches you had to cross and I remember pushing across them with my rock skis on. I also had a day in late may at K back in 93' or 94' when it was in the upper 80s! my bro got dehydrated really bad, it was really weird and not that much fun skiing when it was that hot.

As early and as late as possible...still dreaming of that illustrious 100 day season.

Earliest day: Oct 30th 2005 at Wildcat
Latest day: May 23rd 2004 at A-Basin, CO
April 11'th in NE

15 Days this season, and hoping for at least 10 more (have to ski my age each year )

Worst/Most Challenging/Rainiest/Rewarding day:
Skiing Jan 14th at MRG during a NATO clinic. 3 Runs open, pouring rain, ribbons of ice through exposed granite slabs while learning to tele in hopes of beginning and ending the season earlier via earning em'!

Ended last season on May 20th at Tuckermans

Started this season on October 30th at the Whiteface Highway. Ironically, it happened to be some of the best conditions all year. Kinda sad.

Start the season when Hunter has something worth sliding down, late Nov. early Dec. this year, sometimes late Nov. Ended last year April 20 at Snowbird with a 3 foot dump over night! Face shots in April. Hope to do it again this year.

Q: How long is your ski season?

A: Not nearly long enough.

 

[Zand]

Tonight will be 22 for me. I should count it as 2. Come on, I'll have 14 hours of skiing at once and I will be technically be skiing 2 days. Oh well, I'll just count it as one.

 

[Marc]

Tonight will be 28 for me... I've got a long way to go to reach my goal of 50. If we get any warm ups towards the end of March, consider me a failure.
