I was actually thinking that.  With @saltyant avoiding challenging conditions he won’t improve. 

I ski enough challenging trails on ski trips when it's actually enjoyable. That's when I improve. Plus I don't care if I improve or not, it's not a competition and there's no grand prize for being the best skier on the mountain.

@saltyant have you looked into sharing an AirnB with @skiincy at Stowe?  She’s also epic.

Depends on your menstreul cycle.

Do they have lockers for personal items?  

They took all the lockers out, and closed off the inside valet drop off area. Monday, everything west of the cafeteria was dark. The bar up top was open without a vax card.

Monday conditions were nice. Got there about 10 and left 12:30. 40 degrees warming up to 45. Sunny, loose granular, never got at all slushy, no skid marks. DeMattes was in very good shape as was One Park. No lift lines except for a couple of times the lift stopped. A lot of boarders today. The close lot never got full (although the slope side u is blocked off).

Not as challenging as Midway and Lower Main Street, but my max speed at Blue last week was 30 mph, and at Frost today was 45, and conditions held up well, so there is that. Hate having to skid to keep my speed down. Knees are holding up well, some electronic problems with the new phone though, lack of an audio port is a pain.

Jack Frost is the place to be right now. Just call me JFskiSaltyant.

Anyone going to Jackson Frost tomorrow? It's the only ski resort open that doesnt require a 3+ hour drive. Maybe afterwards we can hang out in the parking lot and drink a 5 pack of Yoohoos.

How much was it? At Bridger bowl Montana it’s now free for 80+ year olds and 70-79 is half price.  Before it was free for 70+
