same here. we got some sweet early season snow, followed by rain, followed by a current dry spell. luckily the rain made our base solid, with a enough of a "dusting" so we are skiing pretty awesome pre season conditions - but "proper" ski season my be on hold for at least a week or two.

I fucking hate people like you. Who cares how much other people ski? Maybe he has a job and can only ski weekends or has a ton of school work and hasn't had time to drive up or maybe he just didn't want to ski! shocking! Just because you ski so much more than he does, which is a choice not a requirement, doesn't mean you can give him shit.
