@Dabber,
Brilliant
We had a neighbour round for Christmas a couple of years ago in his 90's who learned to ski up in the Cairngorms in WW2 to train with the Norwegians as part of an alpine regiment. They were then sent to Arnhem and spent their time crawling around canals.

What a massive inspiration!
I rented some skis to a woman in her late 80s the other day and it was her first time, she came back with a smile from ear to ear.

@HoneyBunny,
Wow! Go Hilda. Skiing in Scotland at 101 years old? Bear Grylls eat your heart out.

Wow, it's definitely the way to stay young. Never mind a free bus pass, I can't wait for my free lift pass!

Love it.
It is so great to see the "oldies" out there doing it. Gives us all hope for the future.
Fantastic!!

You know it makes sense.

Really inspiring. Gives me hope that my return to skiing at the age of 71 and after a break of 27 years is not just a flash in the pan. Already looking forward to next year's Ski holiday.
