The problem with snowboarding, at least in Korea, is that as much as we’d love to go every weekend, there’s hardly ever enough snow in December (plus it’s always so busy over the holidays), it’s usually unbearably cold in January, and by March it’s getting to be too warm once again. That leaves a very small window for snowboarding – essentially the month of February – which is when everyone else also wants to hit the slopes. Which is why we chose to snowboard at High 1 Resort on a Monday, even if it meant a seven hour round trip drive and even if it meant that not all of the lifts were open. Plus, snowboarding on a Monday had one huge advantage: there was hardly anyone else there.
