I'm out tomorrow, my knee's bugging me.
Ben Miller is a bad ass. probably the best skier i have skied with at BB.
Yesterday was fucking epic!

This looks MONEY
It was good to see Tough Guy back in town and getting some air! Here's a few shots my lady-friend got of him pre and post air. The delay on the digi cam seems to have gotten the best of her again, but I think I'll have some sweet shots from my 35mm once I get the slides done. It was a good morning for taking pics.
I think he managed to clear MT's bomb hole in the lower left of the first shot. I like the second shot, right after impact.
green with envy. Now that I'm employed, I had to work.
What is this I here about lift served ridge coming 08/09? please explain.
Big daddy stumpy eh? Looks like he's sporting some new gear, new jobby must be paying him well. But there is no denying his dope ass hat.
btw - i can't believe all the pics, everything is filled into the point of looking unrecognizable (or have I just been away for too long?)
She's filled in pretty damn good.
nm, they're talking about slushman's lift. It's beacon and partner only
Actually on the vid they have posted they say beacon to load the lift, partner and shovel recommended. ? Seems a departure from normal ridge procedure...anyway it's about time. I left in 98 because it was too crowded I can't imagine what its like these days. Long overdue and should really help spread out the crowds. BTW f'n sweet lookin snowpack this year...and staying open an extra 6 days for "customer appreciation"...WHAT A NOVEL CONCEPT...helloooo soli!?!?
I notice griff n jim picked a pretty decent day for their billable hour videotour over on slushy's there, its a PR thing for bb afterall, its gotta look good ;)
we're tenative on a mid-dec thru mid-jan stay next yr- hope its good early again and I can spin some laps on that new thing- should be interesting & I like the mundy tribute in the naming...
enjoy the spring dumpages peeps, looks far from over...
Very very extremely happily surprised by this morning. And I didn't mind it one bit.
today was rad and so is this http://www.montanabeerfest.com/index.php
today was SICK. but no pics. i suck
I did one hike and spent the rest of the day on the lower mountain and it wasn't bad at all.
Gabe- I waited and lapped DP a few times but never saw you again.
Huh, that's funny - I took the liftline pretty much straight back down a couple times, hoping to catch you and meet up or something. Guess we were just out-of-sync.
Saw you again later from the Bridger chair, but you were headed home around noonish or something.
Ridge line looked pretty much knuckles-to-butts through the day, so I decided to pass on that. Surprisingly enough, the fat kid is a slow hiker and doesn't like to slow down the pain train. Shocking, eh?
Pretty hard to argue with how inbounds was skiing though, esp High-T and DP.
One interesting thing is that my usual favorite, Flippers, just isn't that fun THIS filled in. It's like I need some higher consequences for the line, now you can just roll down the whole thing in a somersault and you'd be totally fine.
It just gets better and better. Amazing.
I talked to some patrol today. They are seriously considering eliminating the partner thing all together, everywhere.
[Quote Patrol:] "we are all about getting rid of the bullshit rules."
Besides from what I have seen this year. enforcing it is virtually unpossible.
damn, I think I need a beacon and a bridger pass next year. over 400 inches now!
PS: lone peak was so awesome today, I slightly dislocated my shoulder. ouch. But seriously, it was awesome.
ummm... the telemetry (thanks jb) shows another 13 overnight for 26 total. I know it's employee day but is that shit right? I know it is not always accurate. Does anyone else see this?
thought I saw that at the end of yesterday- but then I got back to sticking forks in my eyes for missing a season like this one...
don't think Ive missed too many daily vids and the one from yesterday looks as deep as any Ive seen all year...
bet theres a skintrack goin up there already today...
trying to be in town 1st wknd in june for a wedding- maybe the corn cycle will be kickin in by then, heh...
lobstah- rode up the lift with the kid who rode with you the ride before. told him I was glad I didn't bring tele stuff because I'd be flailing like the kid below us. he said the guy he just rode with usually tele's and brought a snowboard. He said his name was Rob when I asked. Kept my eyes peeled but never saw you.
I think the partner thing is a good one. One of the best results of the partner / shovel / beacon is that it keeps people from where they do not belong. There are too many people who can get themselves into serious trouble in certain places. There's a good chance that people who ski the ridge often, even if they didn't plan on meeting someone, will see someone they know and can hike with. It doesn't stop the knowledgeable people. It stops the people who aren't familiar with the terrain.
Never Never land looks like an untracked dream until you ski 300 feet and get cliffed out.
they fixed the #'s. no new snew.
I was flailing with half a binding and 2 skis yesterday.
Gaper day this sunday apparently. spread the word
