Poster: A snowHead
|
Going to Las Vegas on business in late Jan. Only 45 minutes away is Ski Las Vegas. Only a few lifts, under 1000 feet of vertical. Anyone been there/done that/tick? What's it like? Should I pack the boots and the garb and give it a whirl? I'll probably only have a day or two at the most before returning to Blighty so can't really consider stopping off anywhere else.

It's got to be done.
Try and tear yourself away from the casino for half a day and thrash it, sorry trash it.

Last time I went, I was in Boston the week before so "stopped off" in Utah, and had my boots in Vegas, but the snow conditions and amount of runs meant the bars in 'Vegas won!!

kitenski, I see... in that case, which bars in particular? S'pose I could turf out the old Salomons and pack my white Travolta suit.

Bode Swiller, yes, I suspect you're right, it's more than 10 years ago now and can't quite remeber if that was 1 or 2 days travel, wish I paid more attention to the ski resorts in the area now.
