Johnny Style Posted February 15, 2012 Report Posted February 15, 2012 Beautiful Sib, looking good. Steep and scenic! Quote
sibhusky Posted February 16, 2012 Report Posted February 16, 2012 Gee, I like those kind of trees, you can see around them. 1 Quote
Quickturns Posted February 16, 2012 Report Posted February 16, 2012 Yes, they were pretty nice! Boot deep snow, nicely spaced trees on a mellow pitch. It was funny becase earlier in the day we were skiing the black forest trees (PCMR) which are a bit steeper and thicker, and it was tough to find a decent line of untouched snow over there. This area of the 10th mountain trees is visable from the McConkey's lift and didn't see nearly the same level of traffic. It worked out well for us as we skied these trees until last chair. Quote

sibhusky Posted February 17, 2012 Report Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) Sib where are all the people??? I don't want no stinking people on my trails. Actually, there is a small dot in the distance that is a skier. From what I hear, the hordes are going to be there this weekend. They are saying it will be worse than Christmas. And...wouldn't you know...it's supposed to snow Saturday and Sunday. Here I was planning on staying home for the three day weekend. Might have to skim the cream by getting a few runs in before 11 each day. Edited February 17, 2012 by sibhusky 1 Quote
sibhusky Posted February 17, 2012 Report Posted February 17, 2012 Too late, they are HERE!!! Today was like a Saturday, so writing off the next three days. It will still be crowded on Tuesday because of all the Canadians, but not as bad as this weekend is going to be. Maybe the snow will keep crowds down. How early do you have to lineup on a powder day for first chair? I don't line up for Chair 1 if the corrals are full, I head to Chair 2 and ski and let all the "first tracks" nuts up there and then I head up. I'd rather be skiing than waiting. There's 3000 acres here, I can wait until the nuts get settled down. Quote
sibhusky Posted February 17, 2012 Report Posted February 17, 2012 My friend in Elephant's Graveyard today. Too bad we were both skiing with headaches, I could have lapped this all day. 1 Quote
sibhusky Posted February 18, 2012 Report Posted February 18, 2012 I didn't start it, though. I'm just the one posting (and skiing?) the most. Quote

RootDKJ Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 I see i got people on a golden monkey kick. My co-worker lives pretty close to the brewery and he highly recommended I give Victory a try. Quote
toast21602 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 been on a golden monkey kick for the last 5 years... this is nothing new. 1 Quote
Johnny Law Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 My co-worker lives pretty close to the brewery and he highly recommended I give Victory a try. Victory is good, ever try Pizza Port or Russian River ? Quote
RootDKJ Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 Victory is good, ever try Pizza Port or Russian River ? Nope, but if I see it at Wegmans, there's a good chance of sampling some on the weekend. Give a beer, take a beer. Quote
NMSKI Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 I guess there's a beer thread, but oh well, gotta say that I've been loving the Oskar Blues beers all around. Ten Fidy and G'Knight are the 2 best in my opinion, and they come in cans for easy bring along to the slopes, camping, etc. I get 'em at whole foods. I'll bring some if I'm at blue this weekend. 1 Quote
Johnny Law Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 TEN FIDY!!! That beer is like a blowjob in a can, will have to bring some nice fucking beer for closing day. 3 Quote
sibhusky Posted February 20, 2012 Report Posted February 20, 2012 Hadn't planned to go today due to holiday crowds (supposedly 7000 last two days, which is about the highest number we get), but it's just been snowing and snowing so I had to do some sampling.
