19-20 Season-How many days so far?

John Webb · Mar 31, 2020

22 here. About 1/2 what I planned.

The snow drought at Tahoe the month of Feb was a damper as was final CV shutdown.
Just glad to get 5 days at JHMR and another 5 in SLC a week before closure.

I got to 90 the on Saturday. I think I can still get to 100 - just gotta earn 'em.

I got to 18 before everything shut down, short of my goal of 30. looking at planned cancelled trips, would have been 23 at least if not for the closures. Not bad for an east coast guy with a full time job and 2 young kids. Them skiing makes it a little easier.

I did get 2 trips and 41 runs in on the enforcer 88's I bought before everything closed, enough to know I made a great call buying them based on my needs and wants from skis. there's always a silver lining.....

I got measly 23 before things shut down. But really probably only would have gotten maybe another couple days at the rate midwestern weather was going. It was a Warm spring.

The day skiing died: Inside the historic day coronavirus forced Colorado’s ski industry to shutter

On the morning of March 14, Gov. Jared Polis studied data on coronavirus infection rates in Colorado’s ski towns, which were 20 to 30 times higher than the rates on the Front Range. It was Saturday and the busiest day of the season for ski areas — the day when Colorado’s $5 billion resort...

The spider that ran across my leg as I was booting up. Fortunately there wasn’t anyone close by to hear my scream

Day 90 at Alta. It felt like it was 90° (55° really) on the uphill.

Since I have pretty much given up on any late season skiing...

32

Lowest of any season since I retired in 2002, by a considerable amount, but higher than any while I was working.

Well, I got my 100 last Friday (first photo), not sure if any more are in the cards. And the Renown 90 protos got #99 earlier in the week. I'm staying off anything steep enough to slide. The avy hazard is managable but I'm keeping it to low-angle stuff so that if I do fall there will be no need for SAR to haul me out.
