Jill Seyfarth picks up her skis after a wax and tune-up Thursday at the Ski Barn, as Jessi Maxey, left, and Lauren Giggy assist her. Bill Brown, Ski Barn owner, says business is up considerably this year compared with last year because of consistent snow. “Two years ago, we had a record year here at Ski Barn, and we’re hoping we break that record this year,” he said. “I think there was so much pent-up energy in people wanting to ski, and now we have such great conditions, everybody in Durango wants to go ski.”
