for the rest of your life, anytime you visit a ski resort there was chest deep blower pow on the ground or own any mountain of your choice?

That is a tough one but... I think that owning Revelstoke or something would be sick.

I would never want to own a mountain anyways, it's SO much work and just cause you own the mountain doesn't mean you get to ski every day (in fact it usually means the opposite...owners generally rarely get to ski). So, that being said, powder every day.

I'd go with the pow option.

Would you rather never ski again or never drink alcohol again?

Depends on what you define "owning and running" a mountain. If it is just to put a pretty face on and ski everyday with no decision making, I'm in

Pow e'ry day. But if i could own an amazing wood cabin lodge and have a high speed 2 station gondola with steeps and tree skiing on the upper and a perfectly groomed private park down from the mid that would be the dream. I mean a couple of mil for the lodge, couple of mil for the gondola a park grooming crew and a liftie team and im there. Oh and a heli for the option for some serious skiing.

I think powder option as long as you are living quite close to the mountain, otherwise have the mountain and live there.

pow for sure. so much responsibility and time goes into operating a mountian that I think it wouldnt be worth it, then again you make $$$ and ski for free..... hmm this is actually harder than i thought
