O/T We've looked into NZ, I've seen the glories touted on the travelogues, though I consider it a "must ski someday" I have a few questions. Most of the lift capacity seem rather mundane in total top to bottom drop, and what's the powder really like / how often do they get it ? I'd guess it has a rather high moisture content when it comes. The truly great thing about NZ skiing is its timing. July - September are lean times in most of the regular places. One reason Utah is such a great benchmark is its distance from the ocean hence my consideration of places more inland. I'm not really concerned about lifts as I know inland Asia won't have the capital development, rather I am looking for adventure before this aging body gives out and has to resign itself to the more beaten paths. I'm 51 now and though I can still turn a quick ski, I find myself becoming ever more dependent on Ibupropen to sustain on longer more arduous excusions. Just about anyone with a telephone and a credit card can arrange a holiday in NZ, imagine the story worth of telling your friends or grandkids of a three week ski trek through inland Asia with days on end of bottomless powder in places with names one cannot even pronounce.<g>
