27 May 2023: Crazy selfie reflected in my goggles, from Snowbird, UT. This was a special day for me, #62. The most I've ever skied in one season. Part of Little Cloud Bowl can be seen behind me. It was a gorgeous morning and the spring snow skied well all over the mountain. I may get up to Snowbird the next two days and that's likely to be the conclusion of my season :-(

I sprained my shoulder in a wipeout on April 6 and was blessed that the injury only took me out for about a week. Had to ski conservatively for a while after, but feeling close to my old, geezer self now.

Hoopie’s!

Auto road day. The visibility and winds prevented us from skiing much more than the East Snowfields but made the most of it.

Beautiful day on Superstar. Certainly more snow compared to last Memorial Day Weekend. Hoping we can squeeze an extra couple days either here or back at Mt. Washington.

Let us know if it's actually legit!

I tried contacting them and with no response after 3-days, I suspect it's not legit. I go through a couple of pairs per season, so to get some freebees would have been a good thing!

Great final day at K. Definitely the best of the June ski days comparing to 2019 and 2022. Made my goal of 50 days and extended the streak to 20 straight months. Up in the air whether I’ll keep that going or not but I’m pretty content with getting to 20.

If that's Instagram, that's a problem. FB is the only social media that I use.

I sent in my proof, (WeSki app) and they notified me that I was authenticated. They told me the next step toward my free pair of skis.

This was unexpected. I'll update this thread when I actually receive the skis. Thank you again TonyR for telling me about this. If you don't have an Epic pass and want to come to Crotched Mountain, I will provide you a free day ticket.

My pleasure, That's very nice to offer a day ticket to Crotched but it's not necessary. I'm glad it is working out!

#102 - timberline

Not sure if this is the end but definitely a deserving day if it is. Exceeded all expectations, 2500 vert all skiable except for loading the mile. Morning was eastern hardback, closer to eastern spring conditions towards midday. Picked up a pair of head kore a few weeks back from powder 7 - fun all around ski.

Smile on daughters face tells the story.

 

[thebigo]

Ended up at 103, raising a ski racer has been the greatest joy of my life.

 

[MadPadraic]

End up with 40 days, of which two were splitboarding. That's not a bad total considering that I missed early season due to a quad injury and a week in March due to covid,

5 countries this year, which is easily a record for me. Albeit the time in Switzerland was just one long run when our guide took us off-piste over the border.
