Meh, I learned to ski in the mountains and I used to scoff at the little ski areas around here, too. But the truth is, it’s still skiing and it’s still fun, and the fact that you can hop in the car on a whim and be on the slope in 20-40 minutes, without having to plan an expensive multi-day trip, is definitely appealing.

It's a great way to have an afternoon/evening workout. I also think it's a shame that people get so focused on needing to go to a ski mountain 2 hours away and force themselves to spend 8 hours on the slopes. Going to the small local places is great way to work on your turns and get some exercise and outside time because you never feel obligated to spend more than 90 minutes if you're not having a good time.
