Hi Snobeach,
I presume your in / you ski in Nth America, whereabouts?
You probably realised I am from Australia.
I am going on my first o/s ski trip at the end of Jan '11 to Whistler then on to Fernie (have a couple of friends who migritated over there a few yers ago). So I am looking forwarded to it with a degree of excitment & nerves too. + the whole idea of getting the stats around my head, size of Mtn's & snow depth, also skiing in Janauary one is supposed to be at the beach! Today was pretty warm almost 30C, so time for a cleansing ale, I think.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers

p.s. still trying to get my head round all this techo stuff.
