I guess the dude was unconscious, helmet was 40ft from him, busted eye socket and maybe his back too... he was starting to answer some questions in the base area by the end of the day.
Hope he can laugh about this with his buddy soon.
good to see some people are posting the stoke lexi! keep it coming for all of us not there to enjoy BB
ouch man. that hurts just thinking about it. Im sure I'll hear about this one later as my wife is working at the hospital today. she loves to tell me about all the ski injuries she sees there, as a reminder
Good seein so many maggots out today, it did not suck on Slushies and the Ridge was nothing to shake a stick at.
Big props to the patrol for such a kick-ass job getting the playground ready.
Couple more for axebiker and workinforturns from BB today, Pnut featured nice skiin with ya mang!!!

I second the vote of radness for slushies today.
And sounds like the dude with the busted teeth/face/head will be ok.
(moonlight employee... literally teeth removed from kneecap, yikes)
Atta boy, Lexi! Thanks for a little stoke! I need some.
Getting good snow in MN, but I can't get out!! SHEESH!!! And then when you do get out...well, it's MN.
Awesome skiing with you too Lexi. What a fun day.
So what did the guy jump off of to have a crash like that? Sounds horrible....
Finding lots of soft snow this month for the little snow we have got. Maybe see some of you up there tomorrow morning. Totally stoked on this season.
Also, thanks to whoever turned my wallet in to lost and found...my wife will be happy I can get her a xmas present now!
^^^^^^^^^^
It's a christmas miricle!...that's awesome, somebody turned your wallet in. Reaffirming the reason I moved here.
I heard he was in ICU as of yesterday afternoon. I guess if being alive is ok, then he is ok. that sounds horrible. off to try to find this soft snow you guys speak ofQuote:

Hell yeah guys, having technical difficulties at the moment, will throw up a few pics eventually. Nice pics guys, those were some good days. May it snow in 2-5 inch increments all year, just a little more frequently would be sweet. See ya out there.
Sleeper pow day
Looking forward to tomorrow. Its snowing in Bozeman as hard or harder than it did at the mountain today.
Top 50 to 100 feet of the Ridge a little scoured and funkified due to East wind, but oh so nice below that this morning.
What the fuck, looking at the Bridger data, it says we've had an "above average" December, and that even before this storm? What is this Big Lie now? I mean, we basically had that one 16 inch dump and then Ullr shot us a few wet farts over the rest of the month. Jeez, I hope January can measure up to the oh so generous stats of December. Oh, and hey Basewelder, what's Glideplane?
Any word on what happened with Slushies open / shut today? The mass exodus back was quite exciting and I thank whoever the AWESOME skier was that kept giving me slingshots the whole way back. Truly, truly appreciated, I don't think I would have stuck around much longer if I had to skate the whole way back.
Nice pic mw, couldn't make it and can only watch the daily vid so many times...
any more from this cycle?

:eek:
Super sorry to hear that single, vibes to the injured. Nice link Lexi, looks like the sad truth is that December was "above average" after all. That's really depressing considering how little snow it seems we got compared to everywhere else this month. Wow, it's actually above zero now! Gotta go.
Skied pretty nice over on Schlasman's this morning with sunshine and little to no wind even on the Ridge. I think you can have above average water content in below average snowfall; I'd unscientifically say that December saw below avg. snowfall with barely 3 feet falling total for the month. Will check on the h2o #'s; the automated Alpine station was out of whack at the very start of the month, but patrol has the manual data. Couple pics from this morning, thankful for goose down and November's phatness that lasted through December.
got mine ystrdy-zero speed sideways gliding from quad to bridger lift, 1st run, barely thinkin double edge grabber totally unexpected shoulder slammer into hard hardpack likely partially torn rotatorcuff & dumbass award of the day 4me- wow that hurt-think its rehabable but ridin the pine w/ice & ibuprofen for a bit...Quote:

cold bluebird windbuff looks pretty fun 2day-
happy 2011 to all the bb peeps, trust we're gittin'r dun in our own ways all over the greater bridgerbowl neighborhood...
Pretty fun day today, super cold. Was out shooting with a buddy and skiing super slowly and mellow down lost shot bowl (didnt want to wreck with my camera) and prereleased with my dynafit lhasa setup. Didnt find the ski. Long hike out of d-route. Kinda bummin, but mostly just not impressed with dynafit right now. Give me a shout if you see it. Just glad I didnt get hurt when it failed on me.
Base, hope you heal quick. Should probably postpone the backyard kicker setup then huh?
