[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I tried to learn to ski as an adult. Hoo boy. Lower your expectations.[/quote]

My DH went from never being on skies to skiing black diamonds well in less than one season.  It just depends on how athletic you are, really.[/quote]

Take this with a grain of salt. Well?

And blacks at Liberty are not the same as blacks in New England or the West. [/quote]

LOL... blacks out west are actually easier. Liberty has some pretty step pitches. Yes they are short, but they are still very step. Add on icy conditions and I would argue they are more challenging than those out west. I went out west after learning to ski as an adult and only having skied one season and it was so much easier out west due to wide runs and much better snow. [/quote]

This is the funniest thing I think I have ever read in DCUM. The blacks at Liberty are basically greens out West.[/quote]

+1.  PP obviously has done no challenging blacks out west, moguls, bowls.   The mountains here is a little warm up to the real stuff out west.

I also find it funny that just because her and DH learned to ski in one season and did blacks locally that they think their form and technique is good enough to even ski well and handle so many different challenging terrain out west.  [/quote]
