MM, I live in Boulder but I've got a red X. I've been to Eldora a couple times on deep powder days. I like the place, but I can only get so many season passes.... I just end up buying a ticket on those few deep powder days when I don't have to work. I'd like to check out those amazing runs you found.

I started school last spring, still working full time, so I dropped from 30 days a season to 8. I'm not taking so many classes this spring, so I can get my priorities straight.

Some of those guys have just three years, and we can't know their comfort level. You're right, though. Gotta push yourself. I just think they could reach their limits as infrequent skiers while staying inbounds.

Edited for clarity.
