I think i have developed a severe case of addiction to skiing. A lot of people on ns probably have. I go into withdrawal when I cant ski. Normally i am able to only ski once a week because I am still in highschool and have very high academic standards for myself. I am still 15 so i cant drive there alone. Living an hour away from the nearest ski hill (troll) doesn't help. Its the middle of December and I have only gone 4X. Now I was gone go skiing but TROLLHAUGEN IS CLOSED TOMORROW SO I CANT GO. Thats 2 weeks I have to wait in between two ski trips. It's probably just the weather this season but its depressing. Last year I had 25 days which isn't that bad but if this year ends short its gonna suck. #midwestlyfe

Is it a lot better out west?

You've only gone skiing 4 times this year? At Trollhaugen, which has some of the best parks in the midwest?

Dude I've been skiing once this year. At big boulder. I drove 5 hours just to wait in a long ass lift line, and hit a down rail.

It was 70 degrees in Pittsburgh today. I wore shorts and a T shirt. I turned the AC in my car on.....It's the middle of Decmber. My mountain has no clue when they will open. Normally, I'd be skiing right now as I type this post.


I was going to go to snowshoe WV today but I got slammed with a 2,000 word essay.

Yeah same addiction as you but usually get to ski 4-5 times a week +1-2 weeks out west a year. Trashed my shoulder and now just hoping to get a few days on skis before snows gone this year. Absolutely killing me

Yeah, anybody that drives that far for Granite this year is crazy. They might never open 100% or have any bigger jumps for this season.
