No. You go to class for about 3 hours a day and ski the rest of the day. Most of them aren't a vacation, but imagine being 14-18 w/no parents. The social scenes at some of them are like college for teenagers. Everyone's hooking up w/each other and people are drunk, smoking, or chewing depending on what school you're at.

When I went to Crested Butte, I was up at 5:30 to walk a mile to the gym in single degree weather, lift until 7, class from 8 until noon, train gates til 4 or 5, then do work.

crested butte academy is going to be so sick next year. I coach the freestyle team there along with wendy fisher. We are getting an indoor skate park and gravity center complete with foam pits and tramps next year. jea.

WVA/BBTS, I didn't believe it when my coach told me that BBTS stood for Black and Blue Trail Smashers.
