can't really say I miss it. personally I enjoy not freezing my ass off on a judges stand in the middle of February. sure skiing is fun and whatnot but summer offers a nice break.
personally, I'll take women in biknis, sundresses, and other forms of small pieces of clothing over skiwear anytime. plus patios and cold beer in the summer beats sitting inside anyday.
now spring skiing...that's where it's at. I can remember a trip to Tremblant at Easter one year and it was 30 degrees (C) during the day. best of both worlds, skiing, patios, scantilly clad women and cold beers!
