Calm down on the high society shit, WGM. We are working class people with little interest in your haut monde art photos.

We used to live in Bellingham, 50 miles from the Baker ski area. I remember hiking up there in the late spring and the snow was over the top of the restrooms at the upper trail head.

In 1999, Baker had a world record snowfall while I was in my first year of college. I was living just across the canadian border and had a wicked view of baker from my parents house. I was only able to ski 2 days that year. At that point of my life I decided that life was too short and that I needed to seize the day so to speak. The winter after I started bartending in a ski resort and skied over 200 days in the next four years.

I ended up graduating university but not until I was 25.

100 is a good goal for the typical ski bum but that takes a lot of commitment. To get to 100 you would need to ski on a bunch of shitty days with poor snow conditions. The first resort I lived at was open for around 140 days a year. The second resort was open for around 130 days.

The easy way to 100 is to chase winter and spend your summer in the Southern hemisphere in Chile, OZ, or NZ. I had a number of friends take that route.

The most days I skied in one season was 69. So basically I was skiing every other day while working two evening jobs. It was a good life.

The one ski race I ever competed in. It is now a world cup race with competitors from around the world. The course is straight and the race lasts about 8 seconds. Fastest speed wins. I was clocked at 153km/h (95.3mph) I finished in seventh place in the division underneath the pro division. Winning pro speed was 169 km/h (101mph)

I've got a friend I've worked with off and on on some projects over the last ten years or so and one day we were having lunch just bullshitting and I don't know how we got on the subject but we start talking about lost time, the kind that just sorta got away from you type shit and he tells me about the seven years he spent skiing and fishing in Colorado. So I say something like, oh so after work you'd go fishing or skiing and sorta didn't do much else and he says no fuckhead, that's ALL I did for seven years. To pay bills he was a ski instructor and fishing guide. He said if he hadn't left when he did he would have never left.
