taking into account parking lot structure could alter the fun curve slightly negative.

A couple times I've been lured to the dark side of riding chairs from the bc due to ddk reports, only to discover what I can only describe as less-than-optimal (read: dinner plate, ice, hardpack, or as the resort calls it "packed powder) after having to PAY to ski.


Never confuse BIGNESS or FUN DAY® with good snow conditions.

I just know, when I grow up, I want to be ddk, follow him/her on all runs and enjoy the same soup--and positive attitude!

Great statistical analysis in this post, particularly appreciated by those of who are longtime members of the Professional Organization of English Majors!

Can I post? Lordy first try...whats up? Anyway my very long winded response to this very impressive topic - Yee Haa great thread, great report, might have missed it if not for CD…golly wish I could track my big days this well. This is Amar quality record reporting! Ouch! I keep a lot of stupid records about my “big” ski world…but gotta say I cant remember my last “bad” day (maybe the last leg break – a long time ago). Every day (unless its flat out raining) is a BIG day….your skiing, sliding on snow, not working, not doing crappy chores, not being a good son taking care of your parents, not thinking about the reality of like for most folks…Sorry I always have fun (or at least finally find my fun zone every day). I don’t ski big hike to mountains very often – but have done some, don’t worry about not getting the deepest and most orgasmic powder runs (good thing this year and I’ve gotten a fair share of those). Am kinda a lazy hamster lift type skier, though this season is the most groomer skiing I’ve done in 30 years. Like the bumps, like the sun (I wait for the spring sun), like big fall line droppers, like the trees (except when I’ve dinged a few), so this dismal year has still been pretty good (no wait….BIG…enough) – at least I’m still here and skiing. Have my reporting style and glad to see all the folks that have an opinion about it. Hope the March snow storms happen for most folks – or even I will give up on Crystal (the best skiing in Washington!) and head back to Whistler (or Utah, or somewhere). Did I mention my BIG runs up at Blackcomb this last week? Ha ha….Ask any lift opp at Crystal who the old ddk is and they will hook you up with me and let you decide how “big” my fun day was…Glass is always half full for me. Thanks again for the great thread and report. Gotta add...its been a tough year getting enough “BIG” days in this season…dang!
