I haven't finished my report of skiing Mammoth on Friday and Saturday before Memorial Day, but do have my Season Recap ready.
52 days surpassed goal of 50 and previous high of 44 in 2011-12. Total vertical 1.2M which beats previous high of 949K last season.
Days on Tahoe Value Pass 28 (11@Kirkwood, 8@Heavenly, 6@Northstar, plus A-Basin, Breckenridge and Vail).
Last year I had 20 (10@Kirkwood, 7@Heavenly, 5@Northstar. One day was all three)
Days on Mountain Collective 10, includes 3@Aspen (all free), 3@Whistler (one was half-price), 2@Squaw and 2@Mammoth.
Days in CA=30 (includes many CA/NV days at Heavenly). Days in other states=11 (6 CO, 2 NV, 1 OR and 1 WA-first time ever in WA and now have skied all contiguous Western States. First time since 2013-14 with no skiing in UT or WY). Days in Canada=11 (All BC)
Season highlight again was road trip to Canada that included skiing 13 days in a rows starting with three new to me ski areas in the Okanagan, cat skiing with great conditions (3 days), 2 more days at new to me resorts in BC, then 3 days at Whistler and finally on way home my first time skiing in WA state and at Mt Ashland, OR.
My best powder days of year are harder to pick other than Mustang. Some OK days with new snow at Heavenly, Kirkwood and Northstar, but all had some challenges due to (usually my) late start, lifts not running or not as deep as expected/reported. Also had good powder days at Apex and Sierra and got to ski Vail in powder.
