We've skied quite a bit this year. Skiing probably between 20 and 30 days. Mostly at our home mountain of Butternut but with side trips to Gore, Bromley and Loon. Its been a great winter accomplishment wise. I've gotten rid of my starter skis, gone to my proper ski length, took a few lessons, did some demoing and bought and fell in love with my Kenjas. I feel I have really improved my skiing in the past 2 months, largely due to lessons, an upgrade in the ski department and just pure man hours on the slopes.
I am not quite ready to hang it up yet. We were thinking of heading to Killington for the weekend but due to questionnable weather did not. DH is tired and ready to end the season but I still have more skiing in me Just want one or two more days.............................
Plan to head up to Butternut tomorrow afternoon/sunday or at least sunday if it rains tomorrow. I may head up to Wachussett on the 12th as its their closing day. I have never been there so I will consider it preliminary research for next season for somewhere else to go
The end of the season is always hard for me, hardest this year by far. From December til April weekends are filled with skiing and weekend trips. Come April I need to come down from the ski high and acclimate into spring and summer. Once I get there I am fine but it takes a little adjusting. What possibly do I do with myself on the weekends.
This year I plan to get a chaise lounge for the back yard and relax and read the paper on sundays. Soon we'll be full into the nicer weather things such as BBQs, camping, blueberry and strawberry picking and outdoor concerts.
Its always an adjustment coming off of the high of ski season and adjusting to doing other things on the weeeknds.
Does anyone else go through this. I understand I may be weird but thought I'd throw this out there just in case I'm not alone
