Okay- here's the deal. I have a ten day window to get this thing done. So here's the plan: Today: rest. Tomorrow- head to NYC and pick up some last minute video gear. Fri-Sun: work.
Monday morning at 3 AM TJ and I will head out on the road. Rallycross the Midwest and prairies, hopefully reaching Summit County late Tuedsday night.
Looks like I will have to fly home on Saturday, April 22. I plan to fly out of Reno. So this will be an intesnse road trip.
Although exact dates are TBD- the rough dates are as follows (for me): Colorado: 4/12-4/15, UT 4-18-4/18, Tahoe 4/19/4/21.
We need a place to stay in UT and Tahoe. Also, TJ is driving home solo, so he will need couch space on the return trip as well. He'll probably ski with you guys along the way back, too.
Can't wait to ski with as many of you as possible!!!

You're welcome to stay at my house in Sandy, though it's currently a mess. So maybe as a plan B option. Looking forward to making some turns also!

If you need a place in Fort Collins I have 2 spare rooms with beds your guys are welcome to on either way of your trip.
I also have a bunch of $25 Loveland ticks if you are in need.

I can't ski those days in summit county cause my parents are in from RI those days, but I can offer you some AT gear to borrow if you need some while in Summit County. Just let me know.

Give them to JimS. That would be the fastest way. We'll be in Tahoe late April 19, and departing on the 24th. Originally Posted by SquawMan

I'm assuming you'll be in Utah around 4-16 to 4-18?
If so, I can shoot you guys on the fatty tripod on the 18th, and maybe on the 16th.

p.s. I tried to get you guys a free flight on American with a buddy of mine who's a pilot for them but his schedule didn't sync. If you guys do this again next year I'll try to hook you up.

Alright- we depart in less than 72 hours.
Utards- does anyone want to throw one of those famous Utah drinking fests I've heard so much about, yet never actually experienced, Saturday night?"There is a hell of a huge difference between skiing as a sport- or even as a lifestyle- and skiing as an industry"

Yes indeed. I leave tomrrow after I change the oil in the Vibe. Hey Nilz I found a portable DVD playing with a screen with it for $89CAD. Should I grab it for the trip? Originally Posted by Plakespear
