indiggio Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Arrived bright and early at the Peruvian to begin Tarponhead & Indiggio's great adventure. Looking clear, with a high of 39 today. Know what I'm saying... 6 Quote
Johnny Law Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Boner City ! Friday you might get a couple inches....Put a line down Alf's for me and make sure if castle, devils or baldy chutes open you go big for PA. 1 Quote
indiggio Posted January 29, 2015 Author Report Posted January 29, 2015 High winds up top blowing anything soft into lower areas. Lots of crusty bumps., but some goods can be found in the trees. Quote
RidgeRacer Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Seriously. Post pics. Get over to the bird as well. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Have fun guys!!!!! 1 Quote
tarponhead Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 Run of day was woods just right of Alfs (high rustler???) . Catherine's also skied well. Snow starved here, look for aspects that hold snow. Skied 9:30 to almost 4. Peruvian bar had the "Peruvian video contest" at end of day, packed shoulder to shoulder hooting and hollering for recent Visio shot by locals. This was an awesome day. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 Props for skiing such a long day considering the conditions!!! Me and Nazareth jay had a debate wondering if the time spent eating lunch counts as ski time. Anyway good to see other PASRs in the Rockies!!! 1 Quote
indiggio Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Posted January 30, 2015 Best is the beers in the hot tub and conversations with others and then meeting up with them for delicious dinner. What a place this is!! More beer please! Have fun guys!!!!! From the video, you all surely are!! Quote
phillycore Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 High rustler was the spot when I was there as well. Wonder if it's just where the snow blows but it's nice in the trees for sure... Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 I've never not had fun...we are skiers how can lyfe not be awesome...meeting random people is a great part of skiing and travel!! Enjoy Quote
indiggio Posted January 30, 2015 Author Report Posted January 30, 2015 Seriously. Post pics. Get over to the bird as well. Spoke with a few people who went over to the bird today. They said it was horrible and came back to ski Alta! I torqued the waiter at dinner today by wearing my "Ski The East" T-Shirt. He told me I should bury it. 3 Quote

indiggio Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Finally got some snow today, albeit not a dumping by any stretch but some is better than none!! Spent the day in the trees as they had the best snow by far. Met up with an old timer (78) and had breakfast with him. He comes out for 10 days every month from Long Island and knows the place like the back of his hand. Skied with him for two runs and the guy can really move! He was wearing a Heli-Ski jacked that he said they gave to him for breaking a million vert. Unfortunately we got ahead of him, he took a shortcut and lost him. Ran into him for the last run of the day. Conditions were excellent except for the fog/snow providing white-out conditions. Crapped out of Elephant's Butt! 3 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 Nice report!!! Any crowds?? U two bunking together? Quote
tarponhead Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 Nice report!!! Any crowds?? U two bunking together? No crowds. Expect that to change tomorrow. We are both in bunk house Quote
indiggio Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Nice report!!! Any crowds?? U two bunking together? Bunking with 6 others, unfortunately they don't have co-ed bunk rooms, but the price can't be beat!! Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 I'm trying to find pricing online...I couldn't imagine having to share bathrooms and showers and a room with strangers. The last time I shared a hotel room was when my buddy Tom came down for two nights last year. It's interesting I see they give you a locker so you don't get stuff stolen. I guess it's pretty classic. I know Tarponhead stayed in a hostel at Killington. Anyway have fun. Oh and I don't do hot tubs. Not cause I'm fat..they just seem germy to me. 1 Quote

indiggio Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Definitely an interesting setup, right above the bar playing tunes till 10. Got word they were caroling drunk women out last night. We're here to ski, not luxuriate.! Put in 8-4 today. Could have done more, but beer & hot tub calling. They dump tons of chlorine in tub, so no worries there. Talking to guy in from Tahoe, he says there's NO snow out there at all, which is why he's here. Nobody cares what you look like in hot tub. Lady telling us that there was a naked guy one time they were in. Quote
tarponhead Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 Sorry about that non-poSt. Jammin in Peruvian bar. Good times Quote
indiggio Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Snow still falling. Gotta make first chair breakfast and get right down to lifts. Alta Radio playing some kick-ass tunes. Peruvian is definitely the place to be when in Alta!! Quote
indiggio Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Some ring-toss game in bar. Never saw this before. Must not get out much. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted January 31, 2015 Report Posted January 31, 2015 Every dude is wearing a hat indoors. Crazy. Don't they have heat there? I get out alot and have never seen a ring toss game at a bar. Snow still falling. Gotta make first chair breakfast and get right down to lifts. Alta Radio playing some kick-ass tunes. Peruvian is definitely the place to be when in Alta!! What time is first chair breakfast??? What are kickass tunes to you??? Hippie shit?? Jackson plays all that take a load off Annie shit the baby boomers love. Good music if you wanna cut yourself. I wish I could control the music Quote
indiggio Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Posted January 31, 2015 Woke up to beautiful blue-bird skies, only to have, within a second an inversion kick in and sock the valley into pea soup fog. Quote
