SkiSantaFe in early April?

Hard as it is to believe, I am still working on a Spring vacation.

Is SkiSantaFe likely to be decent the first week of April?

The local resort (Bristol Mountain) says they will stay open until 4/6, and given the weather forecast, it might be okay the whole way through. Two years ago I mowed my lawn twice already by now.

Pick a place. Go. Have fun no matter what the things you can't change anyway present you.

I just mowed my lawn.

Well, the issue is whether to go to Santa Fe or Charleston. If SF skiing isn't any good, Charleston is a lot closer and cheaper; though I would like to see NM.

Tremblant should still be going strong and they have a spring pass for
about $200. Closer than either Santa Fe or Dixie.

I am waiting to mow mine. The last time, a couple of weeks ago, I hit a rock and chipped the blade, which unbalanced it so it is noisy and shaky now. When I tried to swap it out, I found that, the retainer nut is frozen on the shaft, which means I will have to disassemble the mower mosre than I want to to clamp the other end of the shaft, or take a chance on buying an impact wrench, which would cost almost as much as a new used mower. Maybe I'll find a cheap used impact wrench down at the pawn shop.

Why not Brian Head? Utah is better!

Nice thing about Santa Fe is that you can go skiing one day, go hiking the next day, and then skiing again. We enjoy skiing, but its not really a passion.

Can't do that in Tremblant. I suppose you could in Salt Lake City; but we would much rather see New Mexico.

It doesn't work like that. You can go hiking on muddy trails, and then ski
on slushy and crappy snow, with lots of dirt patches on a ski run. Most
ski workers go on vacation during the transition between mud seasons, where
rain and sleet storms mix with a couple snow flurries. If you go hiking,
bring your gaitors.

I can go skiing on Sulphide Glacier at Mt.Shuksan year round, but it
doesn't mean it will be enjoyable in the summer.

Personally, stop trying to do two or three activities for your trip, you
will be disappointed in all of them. If you want to do a hiking trip, go
on a hiking trip in the desert to see the desert wildflowers, and before it
gets too hot. If you want to go skiing, plan fast before you just ski a
tableboard of slush with mud patches.
