Depending on where you were, we got new snow...

The Catskills got a good dump, and this area is having $15.00 lifts tomorrow

Gotta go....

Today the last snow on my balcony disappeared, we have like 10 Celsius.
However skiing in mid April, 500 km NW of here.
Doing all the "harder" slopes, the ones I couldn't do when I had the kids with me... Nice.

2 of my own, 2 more with my girlfriend's kids. (age 7,9,10,12)
All in all a fun experience.
It was more chaotic 2 yrs ago...

The new world record for "skiflying" is 239.5 meters.
One guy made 240m, but he fell when landing!

I never heard of ski flying before. It sounds like skiing off the side of a mountain and seeing how far you go before you hit.

"Ahonen jumped 240 meters during the last round but fell. He was briefly hospitalized but returned."
