big mario Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 It was a balmy -17 at the snotel station @ 11,400' ('Bout halfway up the mountain) at 7am, and rose to a tropical -8 by 11. There was steam coming off of the clock in the clock tower. It was so cold at the top of 2 I had to adjust my bindings because my boots where loose from the cold, or it might have been because of my lime green jacket that matches some other infamous tinkerbells, at least that's what Mr. Positive said. He also gets bonus points for greeting Juhwan, James, the Sheriff and myself at our table as "Fellow Idiots for leaving our nice warm beds and coming out to ride on such a spring like day". Suprisingly, the slopes were empty today, I guess most others 'round these parts are smarter than us. Sun was out for a bit, and the warming hut on top of 1 is pretty nice, especially for lovey. Juhwan gets bonus points for dressing like its April, and for drinking cold beer in the rat while shivering uncontrollably from the effects of hypothermia. The events guy was asking about a session this year, He also bought a used set up and wants to join us at some point. I'm thinking we try the sunday after nationals, let me know what you think mario at least it wasn't windy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GFY P.S Nice clock management by the Denva Donkeys. Now I have to watch Old Man Ray the murderer run around like a moron next weekend. Its a U thang...Bra !!!!! Did I strike a nerve there? Actually was directed at one of our otha rida's who shall remain nameless, but if the jacket fits...... Didn't see the end of the game, I had a prior engagement. Our usssa masters gs/sl national champion summed it up best, its hard enough to win when your defense isn't playing, your offense isnt playing and the officials aren't paying attention, there is no way you are gonna win when all three happen at once. gfyahand, mario I absolutly love the sartorial splendifersnous of the matching jacket and boots!!!

Odd Job Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 according to the website, lift 8 is now open. does lift 8 lead to the bowls? I'm going sat/sun/mon :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcelsiorTheFathead Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 does lift 8 lead to the bowls? I don't know about bowls, but Chet's is a good carving run under the right conditions. Lift 8 can be a pain to get to and return from, however. Better to send one person over there early and get a report by phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd Job Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) Quality of the snow is amazing considering the drought we are in, though it is getting thin in a few areas. Crowds where non existent, roulette was nice. Mr. Positive and I hopped on the short bus for a few on 3, switch back was firm, but very grippy and carvy and most excellent. new virus is such a sweet ride mario Eff, due to emergency meetings I couldn't make it to the machien shop today to pick up my bindings with removed stripped screws, does anyone have any hardboot bindings to lend for this long weekend? if not, I"ll be ripping it up in hardboots! :D 24.5 boot :) edit-- softboots! lol wow...
