Advice From the Purple Chair: Mornings

Yesterday morning I had a lesson with a brother and sister. They commented how they liked skiing in the morning best, and I thought it would make a good blog entry. Mornings are the best time to ski, especially during the holidays and weekends. The hills are freshly groomed and smooth as carpet. There are no lift lines and you have the hill to yourself. I know it is hard to get up and get going, but my advice is to go out for the first couple hours each day. Your quality of skiing will be better and you will get more runs in. If you are up late having fun with friends and family, take a nap in the afternoon when the hills are crowded!

Signs of the Season: Christmas!

Merry Christmas from the Purple Chair! Last week Nub's Nob received 15 inches of snow and has been making snow like crazy.  We will be 100% open on Wednesday. Over Christmas week I am available for lessons December 26-28, and 30-31. Call soon for reservations! You can even call Christmas day. During the new year I will be out there every Saturday through March 2, and then back again March 23, for Mardi Gras.
