Replying to Steamboat
My aunt, uncle, and cousins invited my family to go out with them to steamboat at christmas this year from the 21st to the 27th or something. Im obviously really stoked about going cuz ive only been out west once last year when i went to jackson hole with my friend.
The problem is that my aunt and uncle and cousins are total gapers and they are planning the entire trip with nonstop activities to do off the mountain. I told my dad i dont wanna do anything but ski and chill in the hot tub and go into town but we basically have to do all these things with them cuz they invited us. I am also assuming that i will have to be skiing with my dad, my uncle, and my 2 cousins (8th grade girl and 3rd grade boy) most of the time so im not too happy about that. My dad is getting too old to be able to ski aggressive terrain really and he wont let me ski by myself cuz we havent been to the mountain before. He said he would be willing to pay for a guide to show me around the mountain and stuff but i would rather just ski around with kids my age.
So my question is..is there anyone on here who will be at steamboat around that time that knows the mountain that would be willing to show me around and stuff. im more into powder and woods than park cuz im not too good at it. im a senior btw. and what are conditions gonna be like around christmas? thanks
