it was in the 90s at the base when i was there. really fucking hot, and probably 70s 80s on the hill. I dont think thats normal though

i skied in a t shirt one day there and my elbows look like i was beaten repeatedly with a cheese grater...i dont recommend it.

You can get alot better no matter where you are if you just try shit. Windells is just the place where you get pushed the most by people you respect

session 6 was hot as hell. 102 according to a subway sign about 10 minutes down from hood. windells is great, youll be able to progress no matter what ski level youre at. however if the kids in your group are dicks, it kinda sucks.

a thermal will probs be too hot. i wore shorts and snowpants and one long sleeve shirt and i was still dyingg. the guys wore short sleeves cuz they could rip up their arms without caring lol Its always good to have layers tho, sometimes it gets windy and then its quite cold. we normally put a few layers and lunch in a backpack and leave it by a feature for the day to accommodate weather changes.

ill be there session 6,my names KC, im 17, dirty blonde and rock baggy lime green or skinny baige snowpants. say hi if you see me!!! :)

long sleeve shirt with emo thumb slits. you might look gay but youll prevent your sleeve from riding up and raping your arm with ice burn. you can still wear short sleeves on top too.

and i will say hi. i dont mean that i will actually be nervous the whole time. i may be for the first few hours, but the rest of the time i will probably just be off the walls with excitement that i am at windells, skiing on my birthday in july.

when you get there, you have like a meeting where they split you up into groups and you find out who your coach is then and get to meet him/her
