I call it a skiesta, a quick trip to the local hill on a nice day to do 5 or 6 runs.

wish I could. I don’t even have functioning skis right now. I took my old bindings and skis to a shop to have them mounted and they wouldn’t on account of the age of the bindings. They are in near perfect shape and haven’t been used, they are just older. I plan on mounting it myself while I decide on what AT bindings to order.

I’m so freaking jealous. I dream of skiing on powder that nice, or even skiing at all...

Oh man that sucks. I would probably just go into credit card debit and get a second pair of skis and bindings in that situation.

I used to do this. My brother and I worked in ski rentals. We’d work the insane rush all morning to give out skis, hit the slopes for an hour or so ourselves, then come back in time for the ski returns.

In the shop the Dynafits are $350+ so yeah that would hurt. I’m still strictly alpine and I just bought some 12 DIN Look alpine bindings for $110 from EVO, seems silly cheap.

Hey aren’t you an “outdoor professional”, get the proform thing going on for all the gear.

I use to have promotive, but I don’t qualify for it anymore. I don’t work in the outdoor industry.

Skiesta is the name of an event every spring at our hill.

If I lived in near proximity to skiing, I would do this every freaking day of the season.
Alas, the nearest mountains are 2.5-3 hours away, and the skiing is only okay.

I typically go alpine skiing 4 days a week. Usually do full days on the weekends and holidays. Short sessions during the week, depending on how much work I have to do 5-10 runs in 2-3 hrs.

You can fly to Glacier International airport from MSP, Denver, SLC, and Seattle. Whitefish MTN resort is a very large ski area and one of the best values in skiing in the country. Costo tickets are $50/day!
