Looking better this morning! Groomers up summit too
Upside down is for jonesy.
I don't think this will be as much of a problem once we get past the holidays. Besides, if you've skied on Hood for any number of seasons, you know how to navigate the crowds and maintain your skiing sanity amidst the clusterfuckery.
Lift lines not bad at mhm, and I’m getting to watch a guy down climb wyeast face each time I get back on the lift.
Ignorance is bliss or does the person have a very high risk tolerance? Crazy to be on that face after all the moisture + wind...

A cold sunny day at the Doo today. Couple of laps with jonesy and another instructor before lessons started. Then just lappin'. Ed's was in deep shade all morning with the sun so low.

In my new career as an outdoor and cannabis lifestyle social media influencer, I feel compelled to pimp useful products. The OR face mask kit is one such product. Breathes ok with the paper filter insert, wicks moisture well, face stays warm, nose wire creates a great fit, does not fog goggles. The filter will saturate after a couple of hours.

Ms TBS can't decide whether I look like a Guardian of the Galaxy, or Marvin the Martian

Highlight of the day was when mom, dad and two kids tried to load a triple chair. Mom ended up riding with me.
Lines started getting long about 1115 so I called it.
Text exchange with Jonesy
Me, 1120: I'm out. Line time too long compared to ski time. See ya tomorrow.
Jonesy: Copy. Lesson with six kids, herdin cats
Jonesy 12.10: I hate kids
Anyone know if Mile opened today?
Yes, it opened. Looked glorious up there. Looking forward to Friday Night through Sunday. Can't really get any more crowded with parking lot sealed at 8:30 ish. So, WTF? Must ski. It calls me.
I love my OR mask. It is the best of all my sport and non-sport covid masks.
It's not a tube thingy... It's a mask thingy. I have a tube... but by second run, covid or not, I get too warm to wear it.

I do the tube on cold days but overheat when it warms up and go to a mouth bra. Got your hoodoo mask tbs. Delivery Thursday am @ Bob's parking spot. Snow was incredible at the Doo today, uber carvey. I've been removed from jr lessons unless level 4 or higher. Thank god. I need a drinks.
A request by me to Management. 2 of those little shits ;-) were Dannish. Actually I like kids that behave. I screamed at 1 on Easy Rider and the whole run heard it. Vidunderlig
Did the class learn some new words?
Yes they did..... Sie blöd!
The 2 Dannish kids were reserved and Hugo the boy became quite the little skier by the end of the lesson. Most kids don't like to turn.
Dannish kids aren’t so bad really, most of them end up accountants or comedians ... Braddish kids on the other hand end up as frat boy hazing bosses! And don’t get me started on the Timmish ...
