Great thanks! I did wonder about that because the train schedule is fairly limited
Also ask for a humidifier for your hotel room/condo....... Really really helps.Ok thanks! Super helpful. I would totally not have even thought about the altitude thing if you all hadn’t mentioned it.
Don't know anything specific about Keystone or Copper terrain in terms of greens and blues, but my friend who was skiing greens and the easy blue at Massanutten did fine with intermediate group lessons at Alta during her first trip out west. She's had group lessons at Mnut to get started, plus one every ski weekend. Went to Alta with her kids during spring break at the end of the 4th season. Mnut terrain is probably pretty similar to Camelback in terms of pitch from what I know.I’m generally comfortable with the greens and blues at Camelback with the exception of one I haven’t tried yet. But I have heard that blues out west are like the blacks here so I am inclined to stick to greens for this first trip.
Are you a morning person? I have more energy in the morning so prefer to do lessons in the morning. Being on east coast time means I'm awake by 6am during a ski trip out west. Usually morning lessons allow time for a quick run or two if ready when lifts open. Then can ski and/or practice after lunch as long as energy holds out.I’m going to be there the weekend of the 9th and it does show up as an option to book - the Max 4 I mean.
Yep, skiing 9:00-11:30 and then 12:30 to finish is a good idea on weekends pretty much anywhere. Eat early and then ski again when most people are in for lunch.Oooh. That’s a good point. I’m not technically a morning person but I will get up early to avoid crowds and the crazies who seem to come later in the day. I also prefer to be out there while it’s quiet and the snow hasn’t been skied off...
