Yeah I've never skied Vail, I've skied both breckenridge and keystone, back in the day. Wish I could have the time to do that, work is just taking all of my time. I really miss snowmobiling also...

There's an easy route down the back bowl; so even beginners can make it down. I recommend hitting Breckenridge one day....it's my favorite over the ones you mentioned. Peak 7 is my go to, lots of good blues for fast cruising.
Have fun!

Dont sweat it...when you fall down you scrub speed. Its kind of like a natural governor....

Not on some slopes. Falling down can be like kissing the devil.
