i walk 60 ft to a (the whole village is build on a hill, and a tunnel is connecting the two sides and this elevator connects the top with the tunnel) elevator, go down with it, put myself on the conveyor in the tunnel, walk again 45 ft and boom, i am in the gondola.

in the evening, i take the right slope, jump or walk over the street with my skis on, go down 60 ft on somewhat tricky terrain and theres our house.

i cant say my lifes bad. especially since my mountain has over 200 slope kilometres, more pow runs without and with hiking then i could ride in a month, a park with 25 takeoffs ranging from 10 to 80 ft and about 10 rails... its a complete package. not the best in one part, but everything more than decent.

30 mins but the road to get to the hill is a death trap. Basically cars on ice.
