kitenski, Proabably ignorance.
Pamski, I too did the run down to Ardent with my daughter and that one was fine, I'm guessing it doesn't suffer so much as it doesn't really go anywhere.
I guess, when i posted this, i was a little p1ssed off after a great day playing in knee deep powder and my route home took me via slopes that made me think FFS i can't be bothered with this sh1te.
Now i am home and on my sofa..................

I find the hardest stuff to ski in is about 10" of really wet, heavy dumped stuff, unbashed in zero vis, a la VT's finest April offerings.

Hate Crème brûlée, aka breakable crust.

If you don't get on well with chewed up and moguled slopes, you may find off-piste tough. Powder is rare and 90% off-piste skiing involves crud and moguls.

I think most people seem to want perfectly manicured motorways rather than mountains. Tbh I am the same if I'm on race skis.

Dr Rock, Lucky you, you will have a whale of a time - I'd go every year if I could, but I did be lying if I said that I'd never seen some big dumps of heavy white stuff there from time to time.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Hmm reading the above most of us seem to have voted NOT manicured? Maybe it's time to stop with the piste bashing

I love the feeling of carving through the crud. It's great for balance control and technique.
