Morning guys.
The last time I went skiing was several years ago at Wolf Creek CO. The snow was so deep they had to dig down to the ski shop and the resort. They had 14 inches of snow during the day on top of a 150 inch base. I had to use the poles to go DOWN the hill because the snow was knee deep. There was so much snow in the area the pass was closed coming from Durango and Pagosa Springs. We were staying in South Fork and had to follow the snow plow up the mountain to get there. The resort was mostly empty and there was never a line.
Dave if you have BIG feet I have a pair of ski boot that are in great shape. I can make you a great deal.
