Scarred from KW experiences where they were full at 8am.....
you’ll always get a parking place but you might have to take the shuttle
if you haven’t sent that jacket just bring it tomorrow - she’ll be with me
anyone that is interested in tying in Fri or Sun that wants to be in my Snowbrains story hit me up

Yeah - and just great vibes.
Wait … I mean…it sucks there. Flat and no snow and rude staff. Everyone stick to palisades.
I haven’t been to Dodge in like 30 years, usually went to Bear ValleyQuote:

Amazing First Day up at Dodge Ridge. Lots of Days old, untouched, warm pow. The snow reminded me of early March consistency.

Even getting on the hill at 10:10 after dealing with a big rig accident there was plenty of "fresher" lines to be had.

no shit, there I was - naked and alone - when all of a sudden, out of nowhere
BAM
DAMN
I was just skiing along going Mach looney (scientific term for really fucking fast) and I jumped off a rock and landed on a buried log. I hit it right under my left foot and kicked that shoe. I went ass over teakettle (scientific term for wrong side up) and cratered hard. I tucked in my wing because of reasons and came down on my right side. Smashed my right shoulder elbow wrist and ribs.
I had to posthole back up to the log to get my ski.
