13. This winter has been so variable so far I'm not even sure how to rate it. There have been some huge dumps onto bare ground, so at times you'll be poling on dirt and hitting rocks. There's been some fresh as well.

Skied at Vail on thanksgiving since they got a bunch of snow a couple days before, but the night before it rained so it was crusty the entire day.

Now during the day it's in the 40's in the Mtn's.

Mother Nature has clearly been binge drinking again.

You need to go to a ski area that has a "mommy" ski program. day care and a ski pass for a discounted price.

I will get out my fair share this year but nothing like the previous winters ive enjoyed.. Im looking forward for the time to come ican ski with my lil guy

0 man. I hate it but I've sort of figured I can't really get my ski season going until after the new year. With 2 kids under 2 and several projects I had due at wrok this fall I haven't been able to a) get out of the office on a weekday and b) weekends have been loaded with either X-mas shopping, setting up lights / trees / etc. , planning my daughter's 1st birthday party on Jan 1st, and other stuff. It's been so flippin' hard. Kudos to you guys who are out there 10+ days already.

Today was day 12. Conditions have been amazing for early December. I am in a very optimistic mood.

You need to learn the artform of doing a good enough job to not look like you didn't try, but shitty enough that she thinks you are just incompetent. Once you master the little things, you can then move on to laundry.

Then you'll have plenty of ski time.

Yes, snowed the entire time I was there (noon-4pm). It was coming down hard when I left. Conditions were fantastic. The snow was powder too. Usually Wildcat is aggressive in dropping ropes, but not this year. Everyone and their mother was ducking ropes and management was fine with it. That mountain should be near 100% open right now. Everything is skiiable. I only found one crossing (on Cat Cut-Off) where running water as a problem, and that trail is strictly a feeder to the trees. I only hit one rock the entire afternoon and that was on Upper Wildcat.
