Obviously, Blues represents intermediate skiers, while Blacks refers to experts.Ī note about ski area statistics: Although it’s hard to believe, some ski areas are (gasp!) less than truthful with their numbers. Newbies are the girlfriend/boyfriend/wife/husband who has never skied before, but gamely insists on going along. Wanderers are skiers who like to go exploring, to essentially get “lost” and move from face to face, seldom skiing the same trail twice. Hotshots are skiers who can ski anywhere, anytime, in any conditions, and generally enjoy showing off those skills. Tickets seem a bit pricey, but again, operating a ski area amidst the wheat fields is quite a gamble. Also good for a tune-up…and the alternatives are few and far between. Very good place to learn, fun for groups, families, etc. The SKInny: This is the better of the two Missouri ski areas that Peak Resorts operates, we should say a lot better. Operated by Peak Resorts, who don’t get enough credit for providing a skiing product where there otherwise wouldn’t be any. Conditions are hit or miss, so is the service, but overall you have to give this resort credit for making a go of it in a floodplain. If you can approach this with a positive outlook - or if you don’t know any better - you’ll have a great time at Hidden Valley. As far as skiing goes, the situation is about as bad as it gets, so make sure you have a good attitude. Keep that in mind when you ski in Missouri.
The SKInny: A friend of mine believes that life is ten percent situations, ninety percent attitude.
