Ski Trip Summary

Lest you think we are really that nerdy, the EpicMix pass we had for Vail Resorts really made the trip fun. The passes had RF chips in them that were read each time we took a lift and each time we had our pics snapped by the pros. The website tracked our vertical feet, organized our pics, and even gave us pins for accomplishments (like taking a lift 5 times, or skiing 75,000 vertical feet). I really wish the mountains in New England would add this ability. It was great fun for us and would be even more fun for kids.

Part of the capability was to create a collage of our trip. Here are ours:

Mike was clearly the rock star. He skied beyond what I did on Monday and Wednesday. He was terribly disappointed not to have reached 100,000 vertical feet

My vertical should be about 82,000; my pass didn't read for some reason, even though Mike's did. It was fun anyway!

We're looking forward to our next ski adventure. It will be fun to plan for!
