Total number of days: 25
(including one day when I skied 2 areas: Roundtop and Spring Mtn.)

That works out close to normal for me; lately I've ended up skiing 20-30 days per season. An early March trip to MA-NH added 6 days; without that I'd be pretty unhappy.

With my skis officially put away for the season, I can say I ended up with 19 days on skis. My goal was 20, but I'm happy with 19 given the way the season has been. Plus, I think 12 days was the most I've done in past seasons, so I got a lot more skiing in than previous seasons.

Lets hope next season is better and actually starts in December for the mid-Atlantic area!

50 days for me this year and maybe a few more at at Copper during their last week if the snow holds up (attending a conference there.) I skied some very marginal days this year - but only because I was working - not days I would have chosen to ski.

Big Sky 1
Great Divide 1
Timberline 8
Bridger Bowl 30 (with at least 8 more to go)
Loveland Pass 1 day of earning my turns!
Brighton 1
Solitude 1
Alta 1 (yeah, I had to tele smile )
Snowbasin 1

The question is how many SKI days you had. If I'm reading you right, you had one, only because you weren't allowed to ride your snowboard that day. I skied twice this winter, so I beat you. laugh If you count snowboarding, I have three days, so you beat me on that count. You've spent a lot of your "ski" days at nice places! smile

Beat up on a guy who skied two days this year if it makes you feel good. I can take it.
