I remember as a kid, the ski hill we all learned on had rope tows, and 1 hill had T-bars.
Not being provided the right kind of gloves, they were destroyed in a matter of an hour by the ropes.
T-bars were a real challenge too.
I hope they've improved over the years.
All it took was one inexperienced person on either, and the whole line became chaos.
There were always the older kids who built great jumps.
The jumps weren't allowed, but the guys would sneak onto the slope at night and build them.
If you got there first thing in the morning you could use them until they were discovered, and the groomers took them out.
I snapped off more ski tips on cheap skis then I care to remember.
How cool that you have your own little setup.
You're probably like the one kid everybody wanted for a friend because his folks were the only one in the neighborhood who had a swimming pool.
I put together a bed and breakfast for a season or two up in Breckenridge.
That was when I gave up skiing, as snowboarders took over the slopes and made them nothing but dangerous.
Here's hoping you have a fun get together!
