My husband and I are “super senior” skiers. We’ve skied 80 days averaging 6,000 metres a day this season.
Despite considerable “Vail Fails” (weak and limited grooming, lift mechanical failures, and bad updates on web reports), we have some remarkable call- outs. Creekside lifties who consistently help with loading skis; wonderful company in the gondola, including a 114-days-this-season skier, and a father and six–ish daughter who was articulate and delightful and well- parented; and attentive ski instructors who encourage confidence in their class students.
Too bad it’s not acting like spring out there! Overall we’ve had a great season.
