    he probably is, just they are such big turns the resorts are too small so you don't notice them [img]graemlins/big_laugh.gif[/img]

    and because he can

    I can't remember the chair numbers we skiied, but there was some fairly steep terrain in there, which I loved getting technical on [img]smile.gif[/img]

    oh and I only loved Northstar so much as they'd had 4-5 ft of snow and there wasn't a soul around!

    I ended up on crutches on a balcony at Kwood and the folks were really helpful and friendly (unlike Nstar). Kwood (like Alpine Meadows and even Squaw's race dept who 'adopted us') had a small town 'locals' feel of real people (not the pretentious type). So I've lashed out to get a early bird season pass for a few trips (subject to snow on the road) over the 5 weeks we're in the area. Hairfarmr better look after frail beginners like me: I fell on a green run remember.

    all of my skiing injuries have happened on green runs, I think it's because I become complacent, bit like most driving accidents are within 10 minutes of your home

    Nobody can stop you but you. And shame on you if you're the one who stops yourself

    luckily at Kirkwood they have big signs in the middle of the load area that you can't avoid saying Expert or advanced only depending on the lift, they should just put skull and crossbones
