Slopesquad 16-17: How many days so far this season?

[surfsnowgirl]

Going for 46 and 47 this weekend and that's likely the end of my season. Last year I ended with 32 so 47 is a much better number. Next season I'm shooting for 60.

 

[Posaune]

49 this season, but maybe more if we get up to WB once more. I had 60 last year, but life got in the way this time.

 

[Bogatyr]

between 110-120

Today, Friday, makes 30 powder resort days out of 78 total for the season.
Still a bit below my average season total so far due to life's little bumpstickles, but am hoping for mid-nineties at least.


Not sure I'll have the legs left to go out tomorrow - but maybe.

I got a little over 20 in then was sidelined in mid Feb by a surgery.........

Day 46 today at Killington. Debating whether I'm going to ski tomorrow. I have my ticket so i just may. Starting to get a little sad. Twas a great season.

Today was my 54th and final day. Smashed last year's record by 24 days!

 

[surfsnowgirl]

Go for it!!!

I think I will. Temps will get down to 34 tonight so they should groom. I will do a few laps and be on the road by lunchtime. Definitely need to bring a camping chair this time of year and get a Hawaiian shirt for skiing. Ahhh things to aim for next season

Day 32. Joined a friend celebrating his birthday at Luv. I am really sick of my knee curtailing my ski days! We found some great snow in the trees, but my knee wasn't having it for more than a couple of runs.

Oh - Good news! I fell. New-to-me trees, two quick turns, then a surprise long/steep turn. I took it, then tried too hard to slow down and ended up in the snow. A lot of snow, so no problem, although it would have been a problem if anyone had followed me down that turn.

This is good news because it demonstrates that my injury is not making me excessively conservative. What I find is that I still enjoy skiing aggressive terrain and want to push myself. What's different now is that I listen to my body and stop earlier than I normally would. This is not necessarily a bad thing.

Did 19 this year (that is not bad for me) but since at least 2 resorts are still open in my area, I could do 2-3 more

(A couple day belated) 37...

And 38 today. The wind was freaking howling and converting the mountain in all kinds of ways. Lots of challenging variable stuff on Chairs 9 and 8, lots of this is way to cold for April 30th, lots of good snow found where Ptarmigan was warm.

78 at Snowbird. Skied with the ********* guys testing some 2019 skis. Conditions were in mid winter form...nice and chalky.

I'm done at 47 days. Finished the weekend off at Killington. K'ton will still be going for a little bit but it's May 1st today and by this point spring calendar is filled up starting off this weekend when my ski school employee party BBQ is saturday and we're seeing The Cult Sunday. Lots of fun things planned for May. It was a great season for me as I passed my level 1 and skied some new mountains along with my usual ones. Skied with some great girls around the country.

Here's my breakdown
Butternut (15)
Bromley (9)
Mount Snow (6)
Killington (5)
Lake Louise (2)
Sunshine Village (2)
Sugarbush (2)
Arizona Snowbowl (2)
Loon (1)
Mont Sutton (1)
Mont Orford (1)
Owls Head (1)

Last season I hit 32 days, this season was 47 and my goal next season is to get between 50 and 60 days.

Friday was Day 16 at Loveland. Twas a great way to finish the season with powder, blue skies and no wind.

 

[dean_spirito]

109 days at 12 mountains. Today was also my 22nd consecutive month on snow! Can't wait for tomorrow!

 

[Philpug]

At Loveland. Skiing was pretty good for Bettsy's birthday.

 

[coskigirl]

Day 30 for Betsy's birthday at Loveland. This matches last year's total with at least 4 more days scheduled next week. Then the question will become whether August's turns in Chile count for 2016/2017 or 2017/2018.

So 143 this is my probably my year end, finally remembered to go grab the total from WhistlerBlackcomb+ this morning. Been home a couple weeks now. It's the only place I skied this year. Nothing was open before I went up and looks like I'll not make the mothers day bash this year.
