Well at least your got that taken care of before showing up at the airport and have a story that you won't forget 😂 Have a great trip!

wait. what? lol.

I think it’s only about 700’.

It's been a while since I've taken the skins out for some uphill so I decided to finally do it with the Indy pass for the first time this year. I headed up to Shawnee this morning and pulled into the lot around 9:00. Temp in the lot was 54 degrees. I had shorts on under my snow pants and the vents opened to the climb. All I wore was a long sleeved tech shirt with my jacket in my pack. if it got cold. Booted up, redeemed my ticket, and was on the snow around 9:20. 20:04 seconds later I was at the top. Lots of kiddies and ski patrol out today for national ski patrol day or something like that. One thing I love about Shawnee is that the SP are super friendly and I've always had some of them stop to talk with me as I'm skinning up. Skied down the terrain park and back to the base, then put the skins on for another lap. 19:48 later I was back at the top. Another lovely skin lap. I ended up just skinning two laps and then take some lift runs as well. Quite a lovely morning and I look forward to getting back there again soon. I could care less about 100% terrain open when skinning up and only skiing a few trails. Truly good times. My one complaint is that I forgot to bring some seltzers to drink at the top. Better luck next time. Cheers.

Had a blast. Super warm out even at the start. I skipped on the brewery and went for a run instead. Will post a report later.

Thanks for trying to keep the peace around here. Very admirable.

sure was.

Safe travels @JFskiDan!

Oh shit I remember that thing. Thanks rain man 😂

Love this question. Thanks for proposing it. I would enjoy it on the full Lazy Mile as well as down the central gully on Main Street.

This is good to know.

Probably making the trek up to Shawnee for some opening uphill laps Friday morning. Leaving around 11:20 to hit Shawnee Craft Brewing when they open at 12:00, and then back to Bethlum area because I have a 2:00 meeting back on campus. If anybody is interested or hitching a ride let me know.

Snow canons and galactic lights are currently on.

Ah I appreciate that! Maybe next time. no worries if you drink it. I completely understand.

Freefall was fantastic this morning. I got separated early and lapped that until I left at 9 to go run. Nice to feel winter for a day.

The more you drink the better it gets.

Still crushing tubing.

I have a work event from 3-5 tomorrow. Gotta get this on the calendar earlier next time but Shawnee uphill is fun. Pack a beer or two to drink on the deck up top. Nice big deck...

Nice! Looks good and that cabin looks awesome.

Safe travels home. I'm looking forward to "the good, the bad, the ugly" report but I have a feeling it will be heavily favoring the good.

love your positivity! 🙌

Why are these screens even a thing? This is stupid.

This is such a poetic summary that I feel like I was there. Bravo.

Stellar trip so far, fellas! Loving the photos.

Should have listened to @saltyantand brought a snorkel.
