Advice to Young Men

0

It is the duty, and ought to be the pleasure, of age and experience to warn and instruct youth and to come to the aid of inexperience. When sailors have discovered rocks or breakers, and have had the good luck to escape with life from amidst them, they, unless they be pirates or barbarians as well as sailors, point out the spots for the placing of buoys and of lights, in order that others may not be exposed to the danger which they have so narrowly escaped. What man of common humanity, having, by good luck, missed being engulfed in a quagmire or quicksand, will withhold from his neighbours a knowledge of the peril without which the dangerous spots are not to be approached?

Colorado Ski Resort Recommedations Needed!?

4

Question: Colorado Ski Resort Recommedations Needed!?
I am thinking about going for a week-long ski trip with my uncle during Spring Break (Late March) in CO and was looking for some recommendations from a skiier’s point of view. We are black/double black skiiers, but we’ll ski the simple stuff every once in a while. Here are some of our preferences:

-A variety of terrain is best (the bigger the better)

-Lots of (at least) somewhat challenging terrain (sorry Steamboat, that excludes you!).

-Little/no crowds and lines.

-Amenities are not a priority, we’re just here for the skiing. However, a ski in-ski out accessible mountain would be nice.

Well, that’s about it. The only other issue I have is that our budget needs to be as low as possible. Also, I have already skied Vail, so I’d like to try something different. As of now, Telluride seems to best fit my criteria, but I need some recommendations from the locals. Thanks in advance for any answers!

There is only one resort I have skied in CO, but I would HIGHLY recommend it, Crested Butte. It has a great variety of terrain for a real skier. Big mountain, chill atmosphere, an extreme skier reputaion type of mountain. I have always wanted to go back. And from what I hear from a lot of CO skiers, they love this place. I have skied a lot of big mountains in the US. Jackson Hole, Park City, Snowbird, Mammoth, Squaw. This is right up there.

What is a good job for a 16 year in Phoenix/Scottsdale area (male)-I like hotels, retail, and restaurants?

Question: What is a good job for a 16 year in Phoenix/Scottsdale area (male)-I like hotels, retail, and restaurants?

Answer by BOB PHX
well, my first job when I was 16, was working in a department store. Phoenix is CONSTANTLY opening new retail stores….everything from Target and Kohl’s, to new C-Stores and Supermarkets.

Yes, hotels and restaurants are good choices, but the better ones will usually hire those with some experience. Sheraton will be opening a new downtown hotel in next year, and that will have lots of job openings.

Also, Phoenix has FOUR major sports venues in the area, and that requires jobs.

In general, the economy in Phoenix is very good. Might I suggest looking in the help wanted ads for the newspaper online. See links below.
