    Aim for the chopping block. If you aim for the wood, you will have nothing. Aim past the wood, aim through the wood.</p>

    Hmm. I think a clue would give it away... as to whether anyone is in the ballpark I would say yes. At 6pm MDT I will however give a clue. A sympathy gesture for your Achilles and for your unswaying dedication to ski in all conditions.
    And Nope x 18.

    nope x 6.

    OK, the big hint.

    The first person to put "steep and deep" in print and relating to snow was from an Island next to Ireland.

    Good luck!

    Published 1913. Does it say "steep and deep" in it?
    If so, I'm wrong. If not, game is still on and no one has got it yet.

    It says "... the slope is not too steep and the snow is not too deep...". .
