I'm up to 26. I had 11 before Novemeber ended, looked like I was gonna ski a lot this year. Then I went and hired on with Sunday River, and I only have 15 days since the beginning of December. This working is cutting into my ski time.

I'm afraid they will call me in on Thursday, my day off, to shovel walk ways, because the guys who are scheduled all have sore arms and a doctor's note. Did it to me last week. I may be away from the phone this week......

As the saying goes...."you want to ski a lot.....don't work in the ski business.". I found that especially true in management roles. 26 still isn't too shabby.

Only 15...booooo! But I will say that the quality has been getting progressively better. the low total is mostly due to early season conditions creating a lack of interest and motivation. Expecting to ramp that number up a lot now that it's so good.

12 right now----15 seems very realistic with an outside chance at maybe 18. For having a newborn at home and basically being relegated to 1 day day trip wknds I'm doing ok :)

10 so far for me.
9 with the family... one solo.
Will likely end up doing 4 more with the family and 1 or 2 solo.

I never thought I would think this but the days following my 4 and 7 year olds down the hill are as much fun or more than the solo days.

22 - 25 for me, I don't keep track that well. Not as many as some of you, but I've had a good 4 or 5 powder days and the rest were all very enjoyable.

23 so far. If I had to guess, I would say I will end up with about 32. That is pretty average for me and about what I expected going into the season. I have to say the overall quality of those days so far has been slightly above average.

8 right now. Pretty weak but for almost all day trips (only one weekend) not bad.
That's going to double in the next two weeks though. Hoping to end up around 20.

Sugarbush - 2 days
Jay - 2 days
Wildcat - 2 days
Black (NH) - 1 day
Cannon - 1 day

Yesterday was day #10. Two more next weekend, 1 or 2 Easter weekend. Should get to 15 or 16 if things to deep into April. That would be my highest number since my son was born 3 years ago.
