Good stuff. I appreciate your commitment to business school spreadsheets but still maintain that you and your colleagues needed an extra semester of "art" and/or design to help the rest of us decipher the irrational proliferation of random lines and colors associated with b-suite excel sheets.

I've said this before, but you're a total madman Stuart! These charts on The Storm, whether it's these or the Pass Tracker 5000 are probably the best charts I've seen pretty much anywhere on the interwebs!

Love it! If you're having a hard time with the vertical drop you can do your own research on Google Earth. Hover the mouse anywhere and it will give you the approximate elevation of any given place in the lower right corner (do not confuse with eye altitude). It's not perfect (The summit of Mt. Southington, CT is all wonky), but I still think it is much more accurate than the ski areas (you hear that Berkshire East?)

We've done relatively complete guide to NY:

...and a list of favorites in VT:

That's as far as we're going.

FWIW we did it for entertainment, generally our decisions to ski are based on location, snowfall and degree of non-epicness.

What I meant to write was: The amount of work your doing on ski pass prices makes Hercules look like a weak kneed weenie. I demand a better editor!

Stuart, The amount of work you’re doing on the make Hercules look like a weak kneed weenee! Ski pricing now supplants the airlines as the least efficient market - using the language of the dismal science. All the best! Dick
