    MTT, wanna go to Heavenly? More lifts, more terrain, less wind than Rose.

    Rose sans East Bowl and Chutes......

    Why Alpine? No cornices or upper mountain will be open; no backside open, right?

    Funny you brought that up. My left ACL is 30% as 2 year ago MRI. I have already split cartilage in left knee last weekend; I think I am one fuck-up away from an ACL replacement. Need to get on good terms with a Reno Orthopedic surgeon.

    Any names come to mind?
    I have Anthem PPO

    Think on the bright side. At least you haven't run into a giant solitary tree. The skiing equivalent of hitting a parked car.

    THAT was scary, I really thought he was hurt. I still have nightmares of that awful wailing sound he was making.

    I was at Alpine picking up my pass around noon today. It was snowing at the Lodge. Rain just below the parking lot.

    The guys at the special tickets window said Summit was a maybe for Friday and Roundhouse was a probably for Friday.

    The car got about 1/2" of slush on it in the 30 minutes we were there.

    That jibes with the 1:45pm email I (and the other parents of team members) got from Scott Stone, head coach of Alpine's Junior Development Team: "Outside it is currently trying to decide if it wants to snow or rain here at the Base. Lift ops are planning on Kangaroo and possibly Roundhouse Friday the 2nd and a chance of Summit for the weekend."

    Do you think lift tickets will be $62? Its almost worth buying a weekday pass for $199. Should I do it? I already have a pass at Squaw. HUMmmm
