For me skiing is not about trying to clock up the maximum number of vertical metres or runs in a day. It's about achieving the 'right' number. I wonder how the average number of vertical metres will vay from resort to resort.
Will that impact the average or is the resort itself pretty irrelevant? TheGeneralist , Silly question, but on your bike are you counting both the ascent and the descent? The figures you quote sound perfectly possible but relatively high.
You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net. About m up and about m down. Though not at once Up down up down. Not really explaining. Very well. To be honest I don't really know the accurate figures. Twas the West Highland way. Somewhere between and from what I could gather. Ski the Net with snowHeads. I reckon a 20, ft day is a pretty good day if you are avoiding groomers. It's pretty easy to knock it off in a morning if you're groomer zooming but if you're hitting up crud, bumps and trees with some necessary traversing then it's a fair target.
I did 2 back to back pow days of 40k ft each last season and that was pretty full on with essentially no lift lines. Looking through my Ski Tracks, I can see my average is about m, while average distance lifts and runs is about 45km. To compare two similar days, I clocked up m on the Sella Ronda over 46km, but m over That extra vertical is due to Kronplatz having some very long descents, so you spend more time skiing rather than on the lift. And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.
That's with an experienced but not super skilled group having a c. The further afield we go the less vertical we seem to manage. I reckon is a leisurely day, going it a bit and more than that means fast skiing and not too many stops or queues. Quality over quantity rules though. So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much. TheGeneralist wrote: About m up and about m down. Stage 11 of this year's Vuelta was seen as quite ridiculous - the most difficult in the history of grand tours.
It was designed by tour competitor Jaquam Rodriguez and had an unprecidented m of ascending. I watched it live on Eursport and it was so tough the riders didn't really race it rather than just try and get through it.
I reckona m takes about 20 minutes up and twenty minutes down if you're ona quick gondola and not stopping stopping on the way down. So, in a 7 hour ski day 10k of vertical should be possible. You know it makes sense. According to the spreadsheet that I kept then over the entire course of last season I averaged vertical meters a day as measured by my Ski Tracks app and a day according to the Skyline website. I should say that I only skied in the mornings as my afternoons were put aside for dog walking so I guess that distance could be doubled for a full day.
Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:. I once did over 14,m as measured on the old Avocet watch of dubious accuracy. Ice, powder, slush, or corn, Howard could be found charging down the slopes last season, run after run, chasing those names above him. Most days, Howard skied Killington , which is known for its lengthy season in comparison to most East Coast resorts. Howard also took several trips out West, including one to Whistler Blackcomb , but his favorite day was at a small New Hampshire ski area called Crotched Mountain.
With two remote lodges to choose from, both offering their flavour of rustic elegance, you can come and tire out your guide and see if you can crack two or three hundred thousand in your ski week. December 30, D'Arcy McLeish. How much vertical can you ski?
