In that case, I'd suggest spending the days with the non-skiers touring
Yosemite Valley and looking about the Gold Country; can the skiing - you
skiers will get plenty elsewhere and Badger is historic but not in the
least challenging (if you can't get up any speed even the trees are not
much fun.)

Is it really that flat? I am supprissed to see someone here recommend
NOT going skiing when in the mountains I expect I shall do a day
up there, but expect to spend the rest of the time touring. Perhaps I
could try XC or telemark.
