Seasonal and lifetime figures...just kidding about lifetime:blink: Unfortunately not that many, but it's the year I possibly saw my first snowflakes.

Today at Mount Snow was day 50 between 14 different areas. Mostly Sunday River and Loon. Tomorrow should be day 51 at Wildcat. 60 day goal looks good.

Made it to #33 at Killington today. All time personal best and especially happy with the variety and the amount of powder days. Best powder skiing I've had both East and West this year.
Next year I'll be lucky to get half that much with a baby coming in December. My wife understands skiing is my anti-drug -- anti every other alternative form of insanity. So I'm sure I'll pull it off one way or another but I'm especially glad this season will be particularly memorable.

31 which is a record for me (not including pre and post season skins up Bromley). Given I live on Long Island, have a full time job, wife and 3 teenage girls with lots of activity, I got pretty close to what I calculate is my "theoretical" max of 40 days. The Feb/early March thaw hurt the most, but we also had to mis MLK weekend.
The big deal for me this year was the quality of the skiing that I did. Strategically misssed some of the poor conditions and planned well to get up when it was good. I had only 3 "average" days (at least for time of year) and 8 spectacular powder days (including Stella) most of which were followed by great post storm packed powder days. I also hit a lot of great skiing at Magic this year.
So for me, for what I personally experienced, I'm giving it an 8.5 out of 10.

45. Pats Peak 3/26 - closing day with 100% coverage
46. Waterville Valley 3/31 - dollar day
47. Crotched 4/1 - 13 inches of snow!
48. Crotched 4/2 - very sticky must have had the wrong wax on!
49. Mount Snow 4/9- can't see myself skiing here much on my pass next year. Front side is very boring and almost too flat to keep going in the sticky snow.
50. Tuckerman's - 4/15 - one of the best 2 or 3 times I have gotten up there out of the 20-30 I have.

Made it past 30 days this weekend and tried Wildcat for the 1st time yesterday. Saturday at Killington was absolutely fantastic. Not a bad weekend!
Wildcat was pretty fun and I enjoyed the trail layout. Definitely will be back next season for a 40k day when I can lap some groomers. The thin cover and Spring conditions yesterday made it tough for my wife, but it was good practice for her. Nice and low crowds too which was nice.
1: Wachusett - 11/26
2: Wachusett - 12/9
3: Wachusett - 12/10
4: Killington - 12/17 - Amazing snow day, Happy Birthday to me!
5: Jay Peak - 12/21
6: Jay Peak - 12/22 - Another great fresh snow day!
7: Wachusett - 12/29 - Car got stuck, had to use un-plowed lower lot and hike up... great snow night!!
8: Stratton - 12/30 - Crowds were absolutely insane.
9: Killington - 1/1/17 - Great snow and small crowds, awesome day and great way to kick off 2017!
10: Loon - 1/2 - 1st time here in 10+ years, great conditions, not too crowded... a nice day of riding.
11: Mount Snow - 1/7 - Hard and fast snowpack day.
12: Copper Mountain - 1/15 - 2-4" of fresh... the altitude here is brutal.
13: Copper Mountain - 1/16 - Altitude still brutal, tried some ungroomed terrain... gnarly!
14: Copper Mountain - 1/17 - Resolution Bowl black diamond moguled hell.
15: Copper Mountain - 1/18 - Amazing "goomer" day, 34.6k vert. and 31 miles ridden... unbelievable!
16: Killington - 1/29 - Good coverage and soft but edge-able snow. Not bad... for New England :lol:
17: Wachusett - 2/9 - Powdah! Last night didn't suck!
18: Loon - 2/11 - Nice soft turns in the AM, PM freezing rain caused us to stop early.
19: Big Sky - 2/15 - What a glorious bluebird day!
20: Big Sky - 2/16 - Adventuring into some trees, great snow, gnarly terrain off the ridge!
21: Big Sky - 2/17 - Amazing "groomer" day - tried for 40k vert., got 34.7k & 33.8 miles, joined 60MPH club!
22: Big Sky - 2/18 - Last day, very sore. Worst ungroomed snow of the trip after wind and freeze/thaw cycles.
23: Wachusett - 2/22 - Spring riding conditions at night in February... fun, but not so good for the snowpack.
24: Loon - 3/5 - Hard and fast all day. Unfortunately some ice and a bit inconsistent snow.
25: Mount Snow - 3/18 - Nice conditions... I wonder how long their season will go.

28: Mount Snow - 4/1 - April 1st POW DAY!
29: Mount Snow - 4/14 - Nice conditions in the AM, everything turned to a puddle by noon.
30: Killington - 4/15 - Perfect Spring conditions. Amazing coverage still for 4/15.

Finished up my season at B Woods yesterday...very satisfying season. Highlights were having my son take the next step in his progress and keeping a great attitude, return to racing and the camaraderie that was the CM ARL team, and of course a few powder days mixed in.
Nice to meet some new folks and renew some friendships as well
Nice variety in getting 14 different mtns. Average cost/day was $16.10
Now it's on to boating and a little golf until the snow flies again

75 today at Wildcat. Not the best day for spring skiing but I still enjoyed myself. Maybe one more day up there this weekend. Then I'll be hiking my way to 80.

I'm done at 32 days. Another low year for me. But 'twas the season of Canada, with 4 new areas hit east and west so that was good. Also it was a season of quality over quantity. My Soul 7s were by far my most used skis. I think I used my carvers once. For next year, I'm dropping the Bold/Beautiful and replacing it with the Max, which should shake it up a bit.
