you're all so lucky. 50 minutes will get me to a dry slope, an hour to two hours will get me to a sno!zone.
Real snow is either up in Scotland (where it's windy and not as pleasant) which is a good 4 - 5 hours away; or in France, which is 2 hours to the airport, 2 hours waiting, 2 hours on the plane, 3 hour transfer = 9 hours!

10 minutes in good weather. 15-20 if it's sketchy out as it's a rural road that noone ever takes and is rarely plowed and maintained during snowstorms.

It's just some shitty hill though, not a mountain.
