Yeah the season is short, the snow is crud and NZ or Japan represents better value for experience...blah blah and so forth. I agree, but for those who are psyched, they can punch out those 5 hours on a friday night after slaving away in meaningless employment all week, tour the range, ski something on the western slopes, or just ski the resorts for 2 days and still be back on time for meaningless drudgery by monday morning with that feeling of sweet exhaustion and a smug inner smile to carry them through. |
