How Many Runs?

For a typical trip how many runs do you get in? I can get 3 in if I sleep in the shelters the night before, and this year on my day trip I only got 1. I usually get in 2, so that's what I've voted for.

Whats a run? If I climb to the top of the snowfields and ski down to Hojos - is that one?

Or is it 3? Snowfields>Hedwall>Lower Headwall...

That's one run.

If you ski at ALL it's one run.

If you ski and then go back up higher that's two.

etc...

I have had as many as 4, but usually I'm happy to hang out after 2....stellar days will see me getting 3, 'specially if I can ski back to the car.

My best ever was 27 runs hiked and skied in the snowfields.

So what if one run was only like 200 yards long. It was still alot of skiing and climbing.

I usually get 1.

But M@ has a point, I traded yoyo'ing the headwall/lip when I went for a summit ski.

So is skiing from the summit down the fields over the lip and down the shurb 1 run?

I could of had 3 or 4 that day.

It took me aprox 6 hrs to get to the top.

Nope that would be counted as one GOOD run.

My parasites have been partying with me for 5 years now. Taken lots of meds and they still like to drop by un announced.
