I ski pretty much everyday. I'll end up taking off 8-10 days in a season. Usually get up around 11:30, (that's when all first chair early risers leave) so I take their parking spot in the close lot and walk over to my locker. I usually ski about 3 hours of so. That ends up being 10 or so runs unless i'm lapping the park which is a lot shorter lap and can get 20 laps down there pretty easily. I'm lucky to live in place where we rarely have lines, and when we do, it's pretty easy to avoid the busy lifts.

Usually no less than 3 days a week but this year its been 2 a week. Usually 4 hrs straight through on steeps/techy stuff, bumps, glades.

yesterday I used my tracker and got 28 runs over 5 hours. today I didn’t use the tracker and I spent some time eating a sandwich by the fire so not as many but still probably 20 runs
I started after noon so no lines skiing right onto the chair
I’m usually a weekend skier but I hit the week nights when it’s good too

2-3 times a week normally 4 hours without stopping or a quick break at the car. Generally in search of terrain with the most interesting stuff going on and decent snow but also just lap mellow stuff with friends and family. Guess 10-12 laps but never pay attention so idk - I ride slow lifts mostly. Also mix in some super low key backcountry days. Driving up i70 early back to back days on weekends wears you down so I’ll often do one eldora one winter park or abasin.
normally also would take a week off work sometime in early March to ski Taos or the bird and try and time it with a storm cycle. but idk if it’ll happen this year mostly just gonna stay local.

With school and work and living 2 hours away from all the resorts around me I ski once a week and maybe twice when it’s a holiday. I ski for about 7-12 hours since it’s going to be my only day that week. Usually park because there’s nothing else here but if the snows good I like to take some laps on other trails and boost sidehits

i live in chicago without my own car so getting to a hill kinda difficult for me, i fly west quite a bit for 3-5 days at a time. i’ll probably put 20-25 days on my IKON this season

Typically, 5-6 days a week, 4-8 hours/day. Less so far this season because I'm really busy, but I've gotten a few laps in every day.

I try to ski two days during the week and once on the weekend. I have school everyday and work three nights a week so it’s a grind but it’s worth it

Probably like 5 days a week for at least 3 hours. My boss is a G and lets me ski most mornings, and I pretty much always night ski when that happens.
All times are Eastern (-5)
