the final tally.

some of these numbers don't quite add up right but it gets a little confusing because i sometimes skied and snowoarded in one day and in kasmiras case she skied at two mountains in one day but forgive me with a slight plus/minus here are are numbers for the year:

i downhill skied 63 times. i snowboarded 25 times. i x-country skied a mere 4 times. i skied or snowboarded at sunday river 80 times, sugarloaf 3 times, then shawnee, mt. cranmore , black mt. and wildcat once a piece. best i can figure, i skied, rode or x-country skied 87 days this winter. that's up from 52 last season so that's a healthy jump.

kasmira downhill skied 50 times, snowboarded a mere 3 times and cross country skied only once. it was a crappy season for x-country. she skied or rode at sunday river 45 times, sugarloaf 3, shawnee once, mt. cranmore once, black mt. once, titcomb once, spruce once, mt. abrams twice, and wildcat once. so, she skied at nine mountains! pretty impressive. her total is approximately 54, although again i might be off a day or two on that. she was actually off a little from last year when she went 59 times. last years season did start earlier and she also went more in the spring last year.

so, we didn't get a lot of natural snow, but thanks to jon pasternak, sunday river, telstar middle school, community concepts (our wonderful landlords) and the mountain explorer this was one hell of a season. i am really commited to losing some weight and being in much better shape for next season so my body can better endure the long season. on the other hand, if i managed to ski and ride 87 times this season, i must be doing something right...
