[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think I'd get much enjoyment out of it if I started late in life and didn't have the skill set I have. I'm willing to spend a lot of money on it because there's nothing more thrilling than a great powder day.[/quote]

I agree. I am someone that grew up with easy access (down the street) and it was relatively cheap to it so it was just of life, started when I was 3. Ended up living in mountain towns out west for 7 years after college. 0% chance I would have learned as an adult - no more easy access, would have been expensive to learn and quite frankly I would have been scared. I am thrilled I know how, and I'm good, because it's the main thing we can do actively as a family. I can go fast with little fear, everything else in my life is pretty much the opposite. The fact I can ski fast and aggressively REALLY surprises people. We have made an effort to ensure DS started at an early age as well, even though we have to drive an hour to a literal landfill for him to get any skiing in, for all of the same reasons I listed.
