I am a 13 year old from CO. First of all I am way behind on my days so far this year...
This is partially because of outside influences like traffic and the roads are too terrible buuuuuuuuuuuut...sometimes there are things that are ridicules (i know that seems selfish and I feel bad about that). I usually go skiing with my dad but on the days that i can go skiing, my dad cant always drive because of work. How can I ski more?

Learn your place... some kids would beg to be in your shoes right now. Some of us (the midwest) haven't had a one pow day yet and never will this season unless we travel. Be grateful and complaining on newschoolers won't change your parent's mind.

Is there any type of public transportation to your hill? If so, use it. If not, read on.

Do you have friends who ski too? If so, plan to go ski with them. Some days your dad can take you guys, some days your homie's parents can drive you.

Do you have older siblings/older friends to go with? If so, ask them.

If all else fails you can always #stopskiing

I'm 17, in southern ontario. My local hill has a staggering 200' of vertical. Its 34 deg F out, and fucking raining. I got a job as an instructor, but can't get to it, because my family only has one car, and doesn't want to take me. I would drop out of school, and kill someone to be in your boots. Find some buds who can drive, go with them.

I live at least Two and a half hours from my nearest hill out here in NY, I usually find a bus company (If you want an idea of them look up Urban Sherpa), overall they're pretty cheap and often include lift ticket deals.

Sounds like you need some shred buddies (friends parents who will dirve you) or you can make some friends that can drive

1. take out a loan
2. buy drugs with said loan
3. sell drugs for more than loan+interest
4. Buy a car with extra money
5. Continue selling drugs to pay someone to drive you
6. by this point you have opened your own business and have means of transportation. Congratulations
