+1 - they also serve mojitos by the pitcher that are pretty tasty.

At TJ's it's all about the Armadillo. Covers all of the food groups...beef, pork, chicken, shrimp and cactus.
for the 3 times you'll make it down to kwood, isn't it just cheaper to buy day tickets?! :biggrin:
just Brooks' sports bar. the main bar doesn't offer pitchers and their version is too sweet (i think on purpose so they don't have to make them).Quote:

This was in the 10/11 thread, but I thought I'd toss it up here too, just in case.
I'm getting together the same condo to ski lease at Alpine again this winter. We're looking for another weekday ski lease member, plus one more weekend member, depending on scheduling.
This is a ski lease, not full time housing. It is right at Alpine Meadows (ski condo run home and you're in the parking lot) - you can walk to the hill. The condo is 3BR/3BA, 1 car garage, TV, WiFi, full kitchen, plenty of storage, small but comfortable and nice (not fancy). Most of the members are families/couples - not a party house.
For a weekday member, there will be times when you'll be sharing with a winemaker and his wife. They don't get up much during the lead-up to the holidays, but they're there in Jan-Apr. They're nice and laid-back and always bring good wine with them. There's also another middle-aged couple with no kids and the wife skis more than the husband. Sometimes the weekday members spend a few weekdays up there, or come up early/stay late. We'd like to add one more weekday single person or couple.
We'd also like to find one more couple or single person for full (weekend) membership. That means you can go up any time, although we really need to find someone who doesn't plan to ski Christmas week.
I'm happy to discuss costs via email/pm/phone, but it is pretty reasonable and the amazing location makes it one of those investments you're so psyched you made the first time you get snowed in or they close the road for avalanche control in the morning. It is also an added bonus that you really don't need a car. I've had weekends where I hitched a ride to Tahoe and just hung out at the cabin/mountain all weekend.
PM me if interested and I can share more details. I'd love to find a couple more maggots. I've had great experiences leasing ski houses with maggots before (The Dad, StormDay, XtrmJoe are all people I've shared with). XtrmJoe is the weekday winemaking maggot who is with us currently.
Back to page 1.
Summer is unofficially over. I need some dry weather the next few weekends but after the 25th (High 5's Bocce Tourney), bring on the snow!
As a DFJ I'd like to say that I'm committed to add substance to this fine thread this year. Time will tell... and I'm jonesing to get back home to the west where I belong...
Joining the roll call. Personally, I wouldn't mind a little precip to knock down some of the moon dust and if it starts as snow in the high country more the better.
Fuuuuuck. Where's that, Splat?
Can't wait to try out the carbon bro's. Here's to another big year and DOnner mini's in late June.

That's what it looked like, but I was confused by placement in the 11/12 thread, and in the summer, no less. Figured maybe he was "testing" in the other hemisphere.
Ever interested in what the hell I was up to at the end of high school and into college? Some embarrassing shit in there but whatever, still lots of classic Tahoe stoke footage...heh.
95' - Volatile Descent (lots of Heavenly pow, Kirkwood cliffs, June & July skiing at Alpine, Squaw & Carson Pass)
96' - Stitches, Riches & DH Boards (Colorado, Utah, Kirkwood, Heavenly, some Jackson Hole)
97' - World Snow Chaos (Colorado - Steamboat, Crested Butte, Kirkwood, Truckee floods, Boulder Riots)
...and if you missed it, THE SWARM!
Just workin' up some anticipation amidst a remembrance of last seasons wonderfulness.Quote:
