It poured overnight at my house and then froze before dawn, which I think kept the crowds away today. Expectations were low and were exceeded several times over

my buddy, bobby peru, will be riding bromley this weekend. he's a hairy, barbarian-looking fellow. wearing 3 color desert camo with custom helmet pattern. if he's not on the chairs, he will be at the bar or on the deck, drinking whiskey and smoking camel straights .... he's not a mag but is self-aware. if you encounter him, proceed slowly, tell him rosco said hello. he wont bite and isnt strapped

Start to a great Friday. And those new langes are badass. And a 3 degree on that Solis makes it eat hard snow.
Skiing is fun.
Fantastic photos. Almost makes me want to get out of bed early.
Beautiful sunny and calm day bob. Chilly at 12º currently.
Dawn patrol goodness that I am too lazy to get to yet.
Thought about Peruvians comment about freeheeling and figured I should get back out there for some balance testing.

Some paramarking in Edens bumps, which are as random as rodent tunnels in r30 fiberglass, provided a good test

Some rain and crazy wind Wednesday night, blew my shovel 40' down the driveway, finished with some snow on the backend and no sign of rain a bit higher up.
Wind did drop a bunch of sticks everywhere and knocked some snow cones into narrow lines.

Saddle delivers the untracked zones

Plenty of Jerries out there on the hill, but just typical kooks not worthy of a photo.
Speaking of Jerry, lurker Jerry is picking me up in 5 to tour some secret lines of untracked goodness today. :wink:
Get after it!
Looking good SoVTQuote:

I would cut the straps off my poles, but I like to hang them from a peg on the wall.Quote:

We have a friend with one. I heard they don't tolerate cold well.Quote:
