  1. If it was November like 12 PASRs would have been there.
  2. Eating lunch now brisket sang and waffle fries and orange Gatorade. Kind of bittersweet that my season is ending in a couple runs but it was a nice one and about 1/4 of my days were out west. In the future hopefully it will be more than that. Been a Marvalous morning at A Basin. Skied 6 runs so far mostly off the Lenawee lift but also Montazuma bowl. I do my power skate to get there on about 100 yards of slightly uphill cat track and need a solid 40 seconds to catch my breath after that. Other than that I haven't felt the affects of altitude. Off to boulder after skiing...this girl I'm meeting wants to know if I wanna go bowling with her friends..uhhhh no...I just want dinner and drinks.
  3. Justo are you going to Stowe this weekend? After skiing Colorado do you have the desire to ski Killington??
  4. I think I lost weight this trip since I only drink three times. Is that your report??? I was a little dissapointed at the lack of spring conditions. Anyway taking a safety meeting now. I got a good parking space. My current location.
  5. Of course when I leave its gonna dump at A Basin!!!
  6. Booked a room for tonight at the Days hotel in Boulder. Last ski day today at A Basin!!!! Sunny and warm although prob not that warm up high although it seems like the winds have died down alot.
  7. When were you last there like six years ago??? SMHerman
  8. You would never make the 730am opening. I really don't care I'm used to 8
  9. Just ended the session with chalk to crud to many Pali chair. And pissed like a race horse and smoked like snoop dogg.
  10. The same people who were at the bar at the mid mountain lodge are at the lower mountain one...wahahahahooey gotta take two lifts to the top slob and ski the 1/8" of fresh powder that just fell.
  11. Bacon Bloody Mary time. A bargain at $10.50 shit PBR on draft is like $4.25.
  12. Nice morning so far at ABasin. I've done six runs so far. Pretty empty here except the row in the lot along the snow nicknamed the beach. Warm today but not as sunny as yesterday and pretty windy.
  13. Tomorrow I'm buying a 2 day pass at A Basin for my final two ski days. Copper is alot of fun and I got so many blazing fast runs there and some decent woods my two days skiing there. Thanks again Barb for the buddy passes. Was $69 each day at Copper. A-Basin one day $85 Loveland one day $35 Copper one day $69 Copper one day $69 A basin two day $140 That's $398 total for six days of skiing a variety of Colorado resorts. That's not bad and yes prob even better deals on Craigslist.
  14. I had a really good time at Loveland..skied a few bump runs...woods and groomers after lunch. I actually rode the lift with another person for lift ride #11 he said he only skis loveland and drives up from Denver in 50 minutes. I skied lifts 9,8 and 4 the most. From a few of the lower runs you are literally right over the entrance to the Tunnel. High up groomers remained velvety snow. The guy I rode the lift with said it rarely gets spring conditions up high. I believe there was also a snowcat running along the ridge and he said he was the only passenger this morning. It was windy up high most of the day and I doubt the temperature got above the mid 30s up high as it was 44 degrees on the parking lot when I left. Loveland is alot more laid back than some of that other resorts and attracts alot of families and you see more old straight skis than other spots. I will say that out of all these places Ive visited its hard to beat the lower lot setup at blue. The parking attendants really squeeze people in.
  15. Ten runs so far having lunch just skied from the top of chair 9 and hit the spine and it was good and even a little fresh from two days ago. Spring conditions lower half still winterlike up high. Right now having a very cheap lunch at the base. Bratwurst with bacon beans kettle chips and powerade under $14. Gonna go out for a few more after I finish eating.
  16. I scored a voucher for $35 in the parking lot!!!! At the top now.
  17. I'm heading to Loveland in a few. I'm a little sore from skiing hard the last three days and loveland will be a good rest day...supposed to hit 56 degrees in Silverthorne so it should be full on spring conditions. I haven't gone out the last three days. Tiredness and edibles knocked me out. I'll try and snap some pictures today!!!
  18. Had a great morning eating lunch now. Hot dog fritos and new Belgium ranger. Just trying to become spring conditions near the base. Still winter like up high and slick down low.

So many people from PA here. Guy who sold me lunch is from Johnstown area.
  19. Time to go skiing. Copper again today with the $69 buddy pass. I think loveland tomorrow and maybe buy a two day pass at Abasin for sunday and Monday. The sun is out again and I only have SPF30...I'm really taking a walk on the wild side.
  20. After lunch I skied two different woods runs that were pretty much untouched except for some yellow snow. I skied some terrain skiers left and as u traversed farther left it got steeper near the top of the Pali lift anyway it was real freaking steep and untouched but I was hitting the crust below. Some of the locals are amazing sections I do in like three turns they straight line but they know the terrain the most fresh was on moderately steep terrain. Flat terrain sucks for fresh and too steep and it gets scrapped down fast. By the weekend it will be spring conditions again but for today it never for out of the 20s at ABasin. The worst snow I had were a few entrances to bowls but they were like chowder on top of hardpack. 39 degrees in Silverthorne!!!
