Pretty sure I am on the first team in the one category that nobody wants to be good at: Drive to the Hill = 5.5 hours ( if everything goes perfect).

If she ever kept track of that stuff she would lead EVERY category by miles. Keep doing what your doing, Barb!
Yes Barb is in a class of her own and one heck of a lady. :like

I think there are a number of folks who ski 100 days + and don't show up on that list. Personally, I don't really keep track of the days but I can tell you I'm probably there or over by now. They don't bother to scan me because they know my face and I'm not about to chase them down.

I know how you feel. I'm never on that list and I'm usually over 150 days a season.
I think I'm at about 160 days this season so far. I've never hit 200, but keep trying. Most people that know me on KZone can vouch for me! :wink:

In fact, after 3pm the scanners have been put away inside the lodges. So it's pretty much free skiing til closing, a good two hours on the weekends now . .

The last thing we need is them trying to scan everybody. Lines are long enough with the current scanning. I would say they scan about half the people going thru.

what they need to do is be efficient at it...long lines w empty chairs going up while they struggle to scan people is lame...
