6000 calories???? huh?? The Mayo Clinic estimates that a 160 lb person burns 365 calories per hour when downhill skiing.

“365 calories an hour when downhill skiing”

Does that include the estimated time riding up on the chairlift, or
Just that active time when an accomplished Skier is burning the Energy during the Downhill Run?

Either way, I’d be hard pressed to imagine that the Queen spent more than an hour or two out in that hostile environment!
