GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 12, 2015 Author Report Posted April 12, 2015 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. Quote

GSSucks Posted April 13, 2015 Report Posted April 13, 2015 So the diet starts after this trip if I remember correctly? Quote
Johnny Law Posted April 13, 2015 Report Posted April 13, 2015 Nice dude, the demise of CO was greatly exaggerated. Groomers were fine, even some fresh weds that's pretty fucking good for April. Quote

I think I lost weight this trip since I only drink three times. Nice dude, the demise of CO was greatly exaggerated. Groomers were fine, even some fresh weds that's pretty fucking good for April. 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. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 13, 2015 Author Report Posted April 13, 2015 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. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 13, 2015 Author Report Posted April 13, 2015 After lunch I went back out and did a couple fast runs off the Lenawee lift..it actually has a foot rest on the safety bar which is semi rare at some Colorado resorts. Aside from a few trips in some woods and gullys I was mostly just doing what I like best...flying...not quite Jackson hole speeds but at least razors edge speed on some very nice winterlike snow similar to the best days at blue on the fresh cord runs..somebody got hurt in Montazuma bowl where the snow was icier..I saw ski patrol giving the victim oxygen from the lift. Last run I flew super fast from the top of Lenawee..felt that great flying feeling us skiers and riders enjoy. Stopped in the woods to review safety. Skied out of woods timidly cause gotta end the season in one piece. Back out onto some green groomer and flew to the base what are they gonna do clip my ticket. Walked about 25 steps to my car and rearranged my luggage and ski bag. Then drove over Loveland pass which I wouldn't wanna do in bad weather. Lots of exposure. Then down to Boulder where I just checked in at the Days Hotel. Location is good I'm semi familiar with the area from when I was here for a wedding 8 years ago. Here are a few pictures. I didn't ski Pali lift today but I did yesterday. I got some good Pali shots from the pass. It's freaking steep no turn on the top 2/3 would I even think of missing and I don't wanna test my self arrest skills which I haven't used since college on Starr at Stowe. 3 Quote

Shadows Posted April 14, 2015 Report Posted April 14, 2015 This thread is seriously lackin herb porn Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Posted April 14, 2015 This thread is seriously lackin herb porn It's just weed its essentially the same quality I smoke in PA although the edibles are amazeballs. Just like last year I spent $250 in a week on marijuana, edibles and a pipe. Luckily the chick I hung out with last night took the pipe off my hands so I didn't have to throw it away. At Denver airport now boarding is in about an hour. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Posted April 14, 2015 Back in Newark just in time for some rush hour traffic. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Posted May 10, 2015 15" new at ABasin in the last 3 days and 15 and snowing there this morning. Only going up to 25 there today. They have a deeper base depth now than a month ago. Wow just wow Quote
