I have noticed a few posters pointing out that it is still too early to start. I have had discussion with a few friends about early season skiing and that they do not start skiing until Christmas break or early January. Their reasoning has been poor coverage (thin spots), refrozen trails, higher risk of injury due to too many people on limited number of trails, limited number of trails and the list goes on.
The perception from AZoners that I have seen thus far has been - it there is snow then ski/snowboard it! I for one typically will go for it as soon as a lift is running. This year playoffs got in the way! However we have redefined our beginning of season as lifts running and top to bottom trails. I did not like the steps at Killington or having to walk to ski - call me lazy!
Since I have seen the number of posters increase lately, my guess is the original perception I had was more oriented towards the posters that are here all summer long!
