I was wondering how that went. Any sore muscles today?
As for me...my hall pass was taken away, as I was in the valley 2X this weekend. Rode the WROD at my home base.
Today, I will make a couple of laps, locally, and then open the books:cussing::eek:
When you're skiing on technology developed by 18th century Norwegian farmers getting down the slope is considered ripping it up.Quote:

Looks good Bob.
I'm getting my 179's this week (not fats though).
And I'm looking forward to my first Solisunday NEXT week 1/6.
Holy crap!!! What a fun freaking day! Getting to the resort was the toughest part of the day, it took me an hour and twenty minutes from the mouth of the canyon to Solitude. The canyon closed up behind me and left the area pretty vacant, no lift lines whatsoever.
There was easily 6-7 inches overnight, along with 6-7 inches during the day. Add in some wind and what you have is a wonderful day. I'm glad I didn't listen to the lunatic in the parking lot towards the end of the day that tried to convince us we were going to be trapped up there if we didn't leave immediately.
Thanks to all who attended.

Sorry I only saw you for two seconds, Bob, had some issues with the kid getting cold (like frostbite cold 'cause of the wind and because when it's cold he wears this balaclava-type thing, then he chews on it and gets it all wet, then it freezes his damn face. I keep telling him not to do it, but shit he's 12...he'll learn eventually) and my brother who wasn't too comfortable in the soft stuff. We still had fun and tomorrow's another day, see you manana for sure.
Each run got better and better. Was one killer day and one hell of a ride up.
I split when the kook was talkin oretty much cause the leg was toasted, no muscle power left. Knee feels great so I need more work on the quad.
This am was cold but so worth it. Got up at opening and hit it hard. Now at work, for some stupid reason.
24" in 24 hours makes me happy.
Is anyone going to be up tomorrow? I'll be there all day.
Gray pants, black jacket and possibly black helmet, white goggles, skiing on pink and purple lib tech's.
I thought about it till I found myself simply beat now. Legs are worked and I have a feeling I will live up to my boardname tonight.Quote:

Agreed, it was beyond fun. We caught Strawberry just as it opened, sublime meadow skipping fun. I looked for you guys all day, I finally saw Ned as we were driving home, heh. I liked the drive up a lot better than the two buses that were stuck sideways, ;).Quote:

I miss Solitude. Over 60 days at Soli alone during 04-05 and always parked near Eagle.
I have never once paid any fucking attention to these fashion reports. Who the fuck can remember all that shit when they're out skiing?Quote:

I'll be up there tomorrow, look for a wheezing old guy with a bad attitude.
