Wait, so it's in the future, but also in the past?

Wonder if his spaceship flies in the wintertime?
I have penciled it in with very light pencil. Am hoping for a Utarded trip next year, we'll see.
I had a great time at BBI@Bozo, and I have never skied in Utah. Looking forward to it. See you kooks next March. I should be easy to find, I will be wearing my "I Skied With Benny" shirt...
In to raid your Honeycomb hideout!
Probably a good time to familiarize yourself with them strange Utah licker laws:
https://abc.utah.gov/laws/law_faqs.html
Specifically this one:

Unless one of these exceptions applies, it is clear you may not bring alcoholic beverages into Utah for any purpose whether it be for personal consumption, to serve at a private social function, or to give or sell to others.
no pirate stout! arg!Quote:

I believe the state also strongly recommends that you don't bring :party:Quote:

yo. tj
How does driving up BCC on a powder day compare to driving up LCC? Is it doable? I canz stay in SLC? Where do locals recommend staying?
Trail map of Soli looks rad. Lots of stuff on the honeycomb canyon side. And that Aevergreene area near the Brighton side.
Whats the sidecountry like at Brighton? Do I need to skin, or can I traverse and boot pack? I got my beaconxshovelxprobe ready.
I’ll be hitting LCC on this trip too.

Scoped airline tickets for this timeframe and I expect to be able to make it. Been a while since I skied in Utah, damn.

I have an idea that I'd like to present to the board.
The best thing about these parties is meeting cool folks and getting a taste of the local flavors... excellent tourguiding on the mountain, skiing with rippers, good conversation, quality garnish, and generally soul-smiling with the locdogs & friends in their comfortable mountain habitat.
However, inevitably somebody brings up a sentimental point. Places get busier and more expensive, that's a predictable one. The ones about missing old friends hit hardest. "Man, remember that dude who used to ski here? I wish he could be here now. Anyone heard from him?"
Since this is a highly centralized location for a ski summit, and conveniently next to a decent sized airport, I think we should do what we can to get the tribe together... especially those who might wish to attend but might not otherwise have the means to travel.
So, I'd like to set up a "Sponsor a Mag" system to help out the deserving.
To start, I'll put up $100 to a travel fund for Yeti.
I've never met him but respect his viewpoints, stories, and sense of humanity, and I'd like for him to be included in this gathering (if he's able and interested). I understand that he's spent a bit of time skiing in Utah, but now lives in the midwest and doesn't get the opportunity to ski big hills much anymore. Maybe if we can scrape together enough coins, we could fly him and his wife out for a little vacation.
What do you guys think? If this sucks or is offensive, I'll take it down.
Of course, we could do something like this for the other summits as well. BBi Alpy is similarly close to a good airport.
Not all here are rich dentistes.
A separate thread might be more appropriate for this effort, eh? Gathering thoughts here first.

Also, let's change the fucking thread title to show the correct year.
I would also throw in $100 to get Yetiman out to BBI.Quote:

I really want to do this but looking into hotel accommodations it looks like I may be out priced. Any local mags have floor/couch space avail?? Maybe a VRBO opportunity?
