haha you're the only one who uses my real name. Be there soon! Had some some guests visit and did the Christmas thing. Then my parents, niece, and nephew visited so I did the kid things with them. Hoping to ski blue the week of December 27th.

hmmm .. Are the hills usually busy on Christmas eve and Christmas? In Colorado, the runs were usually quiet from Christmas eve through Christmas at like 11am/12pm when everyone else is done with gifts. I'm hoping to be able to sneak away for some AM runs at JF on Christmas Eve.

Itching to go skiing ... I just book a quick trip to Colorado around February 4-6. I have a work trip in Vegas so tagging on a few days in CO. Flights are surprisingly cheap.

Was this a targeted ad that showed up in your social feed?

Maybe you should restart your computer. That’s the type of advice I usually receive from IT. it usually get that advice 3 days after the original ticket was submitted so it should work for you

When is the next magazine cover coming out?

yup! @Schif and I will be there on Sunday. Maybe Wallace too.

That swagger style is 🔥, @Johnny Law.

@mute1080- those are sweet & spicy pics! @rummy- I'm staying at Whistler Village Inn near the Gondola and the center where the shuttle drops off. Considering the lack of rental cars, I may just do the shuttle.

that's adorable.

Has anyone been to Whistler? I'm looking to February 27 - March 4'ish with my brother + a friend from college. We have a hotel booked near the Gondola but I'm mostly curious about the shuttle from Vancouver to Whistler...

oh no. 🤪 If I ever drink boilo again, sign me up for a IV hydration drip.

Boilo 🙊!!

Friday was rad at Wissahickon. But here’s a caution ... Be careful of mystery hot booze in a crock pot in a ski lodge from 1945. The hangover was the worst I’ve had in years.

I agree Momskeez! I love the resorts on Ikon, especially in Utah. I have Epic this year because I want to check out Stowe. I do love Epic's tracking and gamification on the app... but the gamification isn't enough to trump the quality of mountains off Ikon though.

The ski hype is growing.... After the Warren Miller movie about 2 weeks ago, I have a tab on my browser with a few trips that I haven't pulled the trigger on. Heading to Wissahickon Ski Club in Conshohocken tonight. They're showing a movie about independent ski hills and are having a little event tonight. Starts at 6pm. If anyone is the area, you should come. I was invited by a friend who is a member. Just a bunch of snow loving philly people. They're playing In Pursuit of Soul, which is about independent resorts. There will be a pizza truck. Usually BYOB unless the tap is flowing.

Saw Warren Miller’s movie at Academy of Natural Sciences with @Schif tonight. Here’s a little trip report. at 6:15pm, we were sipping drinks at my house and decided to go on a whim. By 6:30, we left my house and 15 min later, we showed up in a room full of dinosaur bones. You walk in and to your right was a t-rex And straight on - some polar bears and more bones. but I knew I was in the right spot for the sheer number of people wearing Patagonia. tickets were $22 at the door. the guy at the door was like you can venmo me - eh it’s fine, you can just go in. Here’s a ticket. 🤷🏼‍♀️ So can’t complain. I’ve been to maybe 10 or so ski movies - basically annually + some one offs… once in San Fran for Pretty Faces and the rest were at the Boulder Theatre & Paramount in Denver around 2009-2015 with a group of old friends from tgr or with my brother. They were always sold out shows and the energy was electrifying. It was a huge event. In Colorado, they use to give out skis, jackets, base layers and toss Hestra gloves to get the crowd hype. At the show tonight, a blind guy with a strong arm threw out about 3 Warren Miller shirts and a beach ball. I always love ski movies. It gets me super hyped and makes me want to firm up my ski plans but …. I have some thoughts on the movie itself. It felt very 2020. has anyone else seen it?

interesting. I finally got through to someone at Blue and they said the $25 kid pass isn't full access and doesn't include tubing. my niece and nephew are visiting in december and I'm such they'll have a similar attention span.

Does anyone know details about the Child Pass at Blue (for kids 5 and under)? It says $25 on the site but I'm trying to figure out if that includes tubing. The livechat person doesn't seem ... very alive.

@saltyant- I’m down for Stowe!! I have epic this season. I’ve been looking for a 1-2 ish week Airbnb in January but I haven’t finalized anything.

Great time. Abs hurt from laughing. Thanks for hosting @AtomicSkier!

They did (do?) I went a couple times. Didn’t pay for a ticket. Chatted with a ski patroller and went up.

I know there’s Tuts Lane but that one is so short. with KSL involved, I like the idea of incorporating something about Ray Tuthill … a sentiment to the roots. Something like ? Tuthill Trail Ray’s Run but I also love keeping it as coming soon 😂

Woot! Thanks for hosting @AtomicSkier. I’ll be there.
