Ever wonder how many vertical feet you are getting in a good day of skiing at Squaw Valley? Well, now you can keep track of your vertical feet with the simple to use Squaw Valley Vert Calculator. The calculator was developed by daily Squaw skier and Unofficial friend Ed Hubbard. It works by plugging in the number of laps you made on each chair. The calculator then works the numbers and gives you your total vert. Pretty cool!
Thanks Ed,

i’d be stoked if anyone with an altimeter wanted to chime in with the vertical rise on any of the chairs that aren’t listed yet. we still need silvy, emmigrant, c2, oly, high camp, etc… plus i’m not sure i really trust the numbers i’ve got so far.
i’m gonna get a altimeter watch eventually and start measuring. i had one for a few days that showed KT=1800, Headwall=1790, and Far East=990.

that’s pretty cool… i’ll definitely be all over that if i ever own a gps unit.
here’s my newest ski-geek toy:

it’s a site where you can keep an online ski journal.
you could put a link like that in the notes section of each ski day and keep track of every run you’ve ever done!
