I looked for you when we were at DV last week.
I looked for you when we were at DV last week.
It's the middle of Feb and no skiing updates from 53? Don't disappoint your fans!
Local bunny hillonly 1k of vertical per run? where are you?
You may be more disciplined than me, but I deleted my ski app off my phone. I was skiing too deep into the fatigue zone to hit that number for runs per day, vertical or speed. I'm sure I'm skiing faster than I used to, but I don't worry about the numbers. You may recall that I started at 50 and now at 61 I don't want to risk unnecessary season-ending injuries after breaking my ankle two years ago.
Funny, I was never pushing or tired all day, I was riding up the “last” lift of the day to download and was about to turn off my SLOPES ski tracker but noticed I had 29 runs. I figured I had to hit 30 and took one more and it was just a gentle green so it would not be tiringYou may be more disciplined than me, but I deleted my ski app off my phone.

Your view is fantastic!
How do I know when to stop for the day? When I am having trouble putting my boot back into the ski binding after a fall, especially on a relatively flat slope.When do you know it is time to stop for the day??? See Below

I mean I was freaking 4th in the singles line
I was an epic morning, skied stashes up high as it was 35* when I shoved off at 8:55. Snow was epic/hero stuff. Skied 17 runs and called it a day as it did get busy at the lift as you can see.
Interesting in that I felt I was skiing fast, but did not quite hit 30MPH. I think my speed is more constant for the whole run than it used to be. Did 17 runs today mostly on nearly empty runs, all runs were top to bottom non-stop. Today was the first day all season I did not ski Success.
It is kind of funny, but adjacent runs were crowded, the couple I frequent had very little traffic.
Unfortunately, I kept going at Winter Park and managed to injure my left bursa sac on Village Way at the bottom. Bruising and swelling gone, but permanent little sac of water on my left hip. The bottom of Village Way is more of a Blue in steepness, but I had no business being on any slope at my level of “worn out” at that point.How do I know when to stop for the day?
