    I miss that even being an opportunity. My handle is because of one of the trail signs I got over the years. I last skied in 2008.

      I’m lucky enough to live within a couple hours of most of the major Colorado resorts. Actually heading to ski Utah for the first time tomorrow.

      If it’s not a painful question, why did you pause?

        Skiing is expensive, and I was an editor, which is not known for high incomes. Last I hit the slopes, I had a free lift ticket as I was doing coverage.

          It is that. I just got back from my second big ski trip and my wallet hurts.

          I always feel very lucky and privileged to be able to live so close and easily do day ski trips on a pass. I wish more people could enjoy it. But also, everyone stay home anyway. I want the mountain to myself. 😀

          I hope you get to strap boards to your feet again and let gravity try to throw you into a snowbank someday!
