Friday, friday , friday.... day five for the season. where o' where should we go? Stratton? OK. :)

Are we going to have to hike for our turns again this year?? aw heck, it was worth doing it last year, count me in for sunday:)

The first shot is of my beloved ZZR1200 about an hour after Bambi stepped out in front of it. July 2011. The bike and I have since been rebuilt, but nowadays I seem to spend more of my time on the KLR 650. I used to think that was a Big Dual Sport until I saw the pic of dingbat's bike above:) Others in the garage: 04 RC 51` 06 RMZ 250 '69 BMW R65 78 suzuki GS750

Gonna be in Ricon, PR. next week. The forecast looks small, but that's ok by me:) Newbie needs to take small steps!

Impressions. White ribbons of death typical of opening days everywhere. Today all that was missing was a crowd. Turned out a few good turns before our legs went south. Amazes me how many people ignored the warnings posted that say no beginner trails are open...

Opening day 11/21/12 8am in the lodge!

Zsa Zsa will be missed here too. Fond memories of finally getting to visit Bomber years ago, only to be greeted by a pack of dogs, led by Zsa Zsa, waiting to lick you to death:) Sorry for your loss:(

Just returned from my 1st trip to Rincon, Puerto Rico. Epic for a new surfer. Suddenly, Aspen Highlands doesn't seem so steep compared to a 10ft. swell at Maria's. The Road to Happiness exceeded expectations all around!!

Yea, Bruce said I was "on the List" a few years ago, Guess I should follow up with him.

If Mellow gets to the airport on time, we'll see you all Saturday afternoon. lafcadio/Mike Ace/Chris Scrapster/Mark Atom Ant/Mitch Scott Grey Jonny Mellow Yellow Ken Griff/Ed Griffin Kevin Arruda Bobby Armstrong Craig Damaschi Jeff Hall Bobby Buggs Drew Chong Jskyhawk/Johnathan Van Skyhawk Nina Griffin David/Pow4ever AMK PointBreak jimcheen Queequeg Paulk

Friday will be day 2 for me.. Just don't plan on eating at Grizzly's for lunch. Not so good last week.

Trying to make it up there Friday morning:) Season opener for me. Hope it goes a little better than the motorcycle thing... Have you seen any deer on the mountain?

You could of warned me.... It hurts to laugh with a broken rib and collarbone you know. needed the good karma though, thanks!

What's the matter? Have you never fallen down as a good looking woman rides by on her snowboard? (Tpalka is not going to like this:) ) Thanks for the picture Digger, it may be the only evidence that I was at Buttermilk friday.. To everyone else: Thanks for another great week in Aspen. I had a fantastic time with everyone I met. Hope we can all return next year and do it again!!

The carpool rolled in with Ct, Ohio, N Carolina and Wisconson around 3pm. On the eve of the SES and all through the house, the drinks are flowing, the candy dish is out and the carvers are picking up their tickets. Old friends, new friends are all converging in Aspen tonight as the snow starts to pile up outside. Wish you were here!

Hey Shred....Not enough updates here. Isn't there WIFI in the bar too? Hope you guys have a great week. Its gonna snow another foot or so in the northeast over the next few days..

+1 :) p.s. the amputation party wasn't MY idea ;)

I don't know how I ended up here, but damn glad I did. Just found one of my favorite carving vids. Thanks TR for pointing it out:) Cliff, thank you for providing the inspiration over the past 15 years or so. It was a photo in Snowboard life, circa 1997 that had me hooked looking for the ultimate bottom turn. I'm sure I wasn't the first, and won't be the last to say thank you. Wish you many good turns in the New Year! -pk

If you can swing the time off, I would do an "epic" road trip. Stay at Motels in White river Junction, Vt., Gorham NH, and St Johnsbury, VT. Day trip from the different hotels to a different local mountain each day.. with any luck she will bother you every year to do it over again. -pk

Thanks for all the great comments guys! but Ok a few things.... The cheesy grin!? Is because I had completely blown the mark farther up the hill where Hubert the photogragher had told us to turn.. Trust fund kid?! They retouched the photo to hide all the duct tape holding my pant legs together. The new red jacket!? Got it off the clearance rack(thanks Steph) after the old jacket literaly fell off during ECES. Back to the cheesy grin.... I love this sport!!! Sorry you didn't recognize me Kinpa, it has been too long! They say its all down hill after 40... Guess as soon as the collarbone heals up, we'll find out! See everyone at SES! -pk

No plate for me. It has been almost two weeks now, and I'm taking off the sling for to do things like type. Seems to be setting up on its own, and not moving around anymore. Glad you guys are getting some turns in already, keep the new video coming! I've already exhausted my supply of ECES, Big Mtn., and SES video's at home!!!! SEE you at SES, do or die.. -pk
