With this years ski season almost entirely over, I thought I'd check and see how many ski days everyone managed this year. Did you have more, or less, or the same amount of days due to the lack of natural snow?

I'll start it off by saying I didn't even manage to go this year at all. That's the first year I've never went to the slopes since I started snowboarding in 2002. The lack of wintry weather and work just took away any desire to get up and drive somewhere by myself to ride for a few hours. frown

Since this is always an interesting thread, I'll chip in with my 40 days worth so far. Hope to get another 4 or five more. All local, nothing exotic.

Having a 16 YO son who wrestles takes up most weekends (sat)in Dec, Jan and Feb.

With that, I have 6 days in. 3 @ Hidden Valley, 2 @ Snowshoe and 1 @ Wisp.

Hoping to make the last hurrah @ Snowshoe on 3/23 + 3/24.

18 so far, including 7 at various places around Lake Tahoe and a combination of days at Timberline, Wisp and the SnowTime resorts.

Hoping to get a couple more days and break the 20 day mark for the season.

I think... I'll break 40 ski days this year counting the 7 ski days at Zermatt in a week, 2 at Montage (Snö) and 31 at Snowshoe...

No idea, but I'll try the math:
Averaged 1 or 2 times/week since the local season started (when, MLK??)
10 weeks x 1.5 = 15
That seems way low to me. Probably have 20 with another few possibilities remaining on the table.

I've been all about quantity over quality since starting this freeheeling thing.

Snowbird 3
Alta 3
Elk 1
Sno 1
Timberline 5
Loveland 1
Arapahoe Basin 2

So that's 16 so far. I've got another trip to CO at the end of the month that will rack up 4 more for a total of 20. Twenty is my annual target, so not bad.
