I can think of few things I would rather do than ski. I would even trade a week of --- for a day of skiing.

Snowboarders just get in the way!;)

snowboarders are not the ones carving side to side across the run blocking people from going down the hill.I live in tahoe and go to almost all the resorts every year and i would have to guess it to be about 50/50 here.I think snowboarding is growing much faster though.Havent you noticed all the skiers are trying to dress like snowboarders now?We can always spot that hardbooter walk.;)

No that's is just wrong! :eek:
You are obviously skiing at the right place, but you definatly have missed something else along the way :)

Amen to the snowboarders, trendy little pain in the A**'s........If dressing was a sport, they would really have something to offer in the way of competition, it is really all they are good for......:R

I used to ski all the time, but now I seem to be reluctant to go get cold. Hmmmmm, I better get out this winter. I'm turning into a wuss!

Oh I know....How do you suppose the resorts ever managed without them:R

I'll give you this, most aren't too bad and don't really bother me that much...My brother lived in Tahoe for 5 years (Worked for Squaw), and they really aren't that bad there compared to alot of the places I have been........

To each their own, as long as they respect the other people on the mountain, that goes for alot of skiers I have seen too...........

I like to ski, never tried to board, but dragging the boat up the hill is a killer...;)
