I never understood vert either.

Would you rather have more days or more vert?

Like cool i got 200k vert. Skied 7 days all season.

When I was in 11th grade I bought an avocet altimeter watch which kept track of vertical feet skied. Indiggio has one of them. I always liked keeping stats on different things as I'm number oriented. When I joined PASR I liked the stats page and kept track of vert for a few years. Now I just keep track of days. I'd rather just enjoy myself skiing. I've found that around 3-4 days skiing per week is perfect for me and 6-7 days on ski trips.

 

Everybody have fun this weekend at Big Boulder.

The end of this warmth is finally in sight.

Friday will be the first day this month with a high temperature below 50 for Philly.

Topo map shows 410 for the Challenge lift and 530 for East Mtn. Agrees pretty much with Ski Tracks on my phone. In any case, a lot more vertical than I'm doing now. Got the NBC Sports Live Extra app and Apple TV watching other people ski.

BC claiming 510 always makes me laugh.

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

When it was Doe mountain it was 500 but I think it's close to that based on the topography of south mountain. At least 450

They took that measurement from the top of the cell tower on the mountain

While, I'm not gonna lie, the above is funny; you've still managed to insult 2 former posters in this thread for some ungodly reason. Why? What if they decided to come back to PASR and the first thing they saw were your harsh words? Think McFly think.

 

Here's my thing though, if you let someone "run" you off a message board, I question whether you should have been on that message board to begin with. Sibhusky was a big loss. She posted Montana stoke and BigDaddyK's Jack Frost TRs were epic. He was the Jack Frost OG. If I recall though I believe he came back briefly a year or so ago and mentioned that he quit skiing for a while which may be why he bailed on PASR.

 

Sibby doesn't count Doug among the people she cares about, so I really don't care what he says.

 

Also, not sure I was "run off". The board just didn't add value to me. I stayed for years too long before I left.

 

Never the less, for your viewing pleasure. We had an entire January of skiing in fog like gray flannel -- truly unbelievably wearing, day after day, for weeks. Finally, today we had a real bluebird day.
