FLAGSTAFF, AZ - Fewer of you got out your skis this past winter in northern Arizona.

Attendance at Arizona Snowbowl near Flagstaff was down 50,000 this season.

A spokesman for the ski resort said that about only 150,000 people hit the slopes, but it was still a successful season.

Part of the reason for the decline could be the weather.

Snowbowl received far less snow this past year.

Only 266 inches fell, compared to 321 inches last season.

Did you go to Snowbowl this year? If not, what was YOUR reason?
