    ITS ON!!!

    My buddy drove up to Alpenglow today and got stuck, we have a day off from school friday, another storm is rolling in [/antijinx] and the best part for those in the know (me) they are running the lift saturday

    Plan: Skiing Friday, Yearbook Friday Night, Skiing Saturday, Skiing Sunday

    They set up a hay bal table before it snowed too, hucking will occur

    AKPM-------> so stoked right now

    now that snow is falling it's time that u quit posting pics of your dumb white-faced halloween-painted ass. we don't want to see some way-too-close-up close up of you hiking either. so... if want to truly gain our respect then i'm gonna need to see some pics of your chunk-lookin ass doin a mid-air truffle shuffle. so hurry up, the Fratellis are coming.
    -You can imagine where it goes from here.
    -He fixes the cable?

    The first two times I skiied Alpenglow were last winter, during storms.

    That was the best snow I have ever made turns in. You just floated it through it like it wasn't there.

    The cornace to the right of the summit (as you are riding the lift) and the gut to the left, around the high traverse, are good spots for launching, as I'm sure you already know.

    The gully by the HT especially, as last year, my buddy and I just straightlined down from the traverse, aired it, and you couldn't even feel the landing. It was just "Poooofff," and turn, turn, turn.
    Only, prob was the rocks under the snow that formed hummocks. They wouldn't grab your skis, but you sure didn't want to ski over them.

    That place is awesome with good snow, at least the two times I went there.

    Kind of wish I was there...

    Nope, I have white Tuas, a gray Arc'teryx jacket, gray beanie, green Spy goggles.
    My buddy was on Volkls, wearing a vest.

    Do you also have Lowa boots and other equipment from The North Face, DaKine, Life Link, and Ortovox by any chance?

    The clue is in his signature. See if you can figure it out.

    Damn, I thought this thread was going to be about how AKPM is now eating back bacon and using "eh?" to finish sentences.
