just spent 2 months skiing and working part time in the french alps. anyone doing some skiing and such this season?
>>2865597kaprun sucksPitztall rulesnever was in the french alps
I can't ski but I've been in a ski resort all winter I walked up the mountain path and down the slope in the middle the night if that counts
>>2865597>go up mountain >ski down >repeat I genuinely do not understand skifags. I get going for a day, but why do people travel to ski for an entire week, for months? Does it not get boring doing the same thing over?
>>2865800You wouldn't get it until you do it. I felt the same time until one of my exs dragged me to a snowboarding trip.
>>2865805I grew up skiing all the time though. It's fine for a weekend trip, but I couldn't imagine traveling for it.
>>2865810I think you're lying. If you grew up skiing you know how much conditions and location matter, and you would already understand ski culture and the attraction (no niggers).Stay brown and stay lying.
Chamonix skiing has the best views I've ever seen. I'm dying to do the Dolomites next year. I just did a little resort in Arizona called SnowBowl. We bought lift tickets for $12/day and stayed in Flagstaff. Its a super underrated town. I skied one day, snowboarded one day, and we went hiking in Sedona one day. The food and bars in Flagstaff are really fun. The Mead Hall in Flagstaff is a 10/10. I'd do that trip again anytime.
>>2865927Do they have real snow or is it all snowblower? I didn't know Arizona had skiing
>>2865929They get 250+ inches a year at Snowbowl. But this was a below average snow year for them. 42/62 trails were open though. It was decent conditions. They just got 4 feet of snow in the last week, so it's much better now. The problem on the west coast is price and weekend crowds. Lake Tahoe and Park City have lost their minds with lift ticket prices. Heavenly is $200/day, park city is $250+. Mammoth is $178 and it gets insanely overcrowded on weekends. So we've been checking out some of the other lesser known resorts the last few years. Brianhead Utah and Snowbowl in Arizona are both great and insanely cheap. Brianhead has better snow, but Snowbowl is right next to Flagstaff and has more to do. On a good snow year, I'd pick Snowbowl easily.
