I know everyone says you cannot look back or do the retroactive “what if?” scenarios but I cannot help it. Had I not skied out of my comfort zone on the last run of the last day of three days of skiing last month, I would be in Vermont skiing this week. I had a three day package booked for Killington. I would have been in the Baja Cantina at the Chalet Killington right now having drinks and eating a half-price burrito or appetizer.
If I were not drooling over the food, I would have been salivating about the conditions. They got 11″ inches of snow in the last 48 hours and a total of 44″ for the last week. The conditions were as good last year when I skied there at the end of February. 13″ of snow fell the day before I arrived on the mountain. It was awesome. I am sure it is just as good right now if not better. The conditions were pretty darn good when I was there in early January this year.
Ah me. What is one to do? I guess I just have to keep working on getting my knee strong. Hopefully I will be in my kayak paddling and on my motorcycle riding in a month or two and skiing again next winter.
