That makes sense James :-).
But on my only outing on a ski slope in the USA, at Brian Head in
early 1993, I was surprised at: how no one stepped on your skis in
the queues for the lifts; and how considerate everyone was of each
other's space on the runs. Mind you, I was used to crowded European
ski runs and inconsiderate youngsters carving up my skis in the queues.
Enjoy the snow: we don't get it much here any longer in East Anglia :-
