Whoa .... not sure I'd even want to be driving in that.
Turned around? That would be considered quite adequate visibility at WMR. I skied (kinda slowly) all day today in mostly 1 chair conditions and enjoyed it. The only deal breaker in my book is freezing fog on the goggles, that just pisses me off.This is @Philpug at Mt. Rose two years ago. He is actually downhill from me. I believe we called it a day when we finally found the bottom of the hill. I noticed this year I seem to be more susceptible to the adverse effects of vertigo.

I think I turned around and went home on this day.
Fred just told me today was the worst he remembered in 26 years. For bystanders, that's saying something. Fred is a vert leader here, capturing one of the top three spots every season.Turned around?

Surely you jest! What horizon? This first one has two skiers in it. The third one was UNDER the fog layer. The last one is looking up hill at the Ant Hill.Try to find a point on the horizon to focus on.
I found that helps a lot.keep turning
OP here. I took Dramamine the third and final day at Schweitzer and it seemed to help with not getting dizziness issues that would upset my stomach but it wasn't a conclusive test because it wasn't a very bad fog day...but my gut feeling is it's going to help.
By the way, see ski sickness or Hausler's disease. Nobody mentioned it but it seems like it's a thing and what I am starting to suffer from if not nipped in the bud.
My father-in-law had that done and it made a huge difference. In his case the doctor held a vibrator against his skull behind his ear while he did it, I suppose to shake up the crystals and help them move. The treatment was followed by a day or so in a neck-immobilizing brace, I suppose to give the crystals time to settle into their new homes.manipulated my head around to put them back where they belong.
Glad you responded to Rod. I was going to and then decided not to until I saw your post.Not true. I’ve fogged plenty of goggles whole wearing a helmet. Currently my Anon WM1 goggles have been the best at not fogging.
The faint (really faint!) outline of the trees will work. anything that breaks the nothingness. An instructor at Snowbird offered that tip years ago and it seemed to help some for me. Man, those pics could be from Targhee! Or any other place on particular days.Surely you jest! What horizon? This first one has two skiers in it. The third one was UNDER the fog layer.
