I work for the Deep Powder House. We have a shop right at Goldminer's Daughter at the base of Wildcat. On Friday I work 8-6. I get one hour off to ski. If anyone wants to demo a new ski I can hook you up for considerably less than our $40 a day price. My name is Drew, I will be the youngest fucker in there. Come in and say hi, and hopefully I can bust 2 laps down the nest with some of you internet brethen.

DPH is a good shop. I bought my V-Pros from y'all end-of-last-year, and the woman who sold 'em to me threw in some crappy rental poles for free, on account of me being a poor knuckledragger.

If anyone needs gear, they should go there.

What about Monday, Alta day for all?? I still need some planks and boots. THink you can do anything for me on Monday, as I am a skier turned knuckledragger turning back to skiing a bit more again.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Buzz

Damn, I can't wait for this thing to go off!! Stoked for sure.

**alto** · 01-22-2004, 05:30 PM

Yes Buzz, I can hook you up. More of you than I expected are going to be looking for a hook up, so I am going to have to get some managerial approval so that this deal is legitimate. I wish I could just go over the boss's head, but a dozen or so people may be pushing my luck with staying under the hook up radar. It shoudn't be a problem though beacuse hooking up a connected group like this cannot be bad for business. I will work this out and get back to you all in a day or two. See ya soon.

Thief!! Quantas personas?

CS · 01-22-2004, 07:25 PM

Hmmm, I might be swayed. Haven't been there since the new lift in Honeycomb. Course, it all depends on what goes down at basin on Sat. How much for tickets at Solitude nowadays?

**xboat** · 01-22-2004, 11:29 PM

soooo...who's got the rental car deal all figured out? any deals to be had?

**Endlessseason** · 01-23-2004, 10:09 AM

Alto,

Lets hook it up this weekend sum time for suma dose nest laps. Always fun to meet someone new. BTW, get the old red haired goatee mofo knee gimping Turner out also - haven't seen him on anything but groomies lately.

SKI DEMO UPDATE

So I talked to my boss today about the Minion Hookup. He said sure, he'd love to work something out. The deal he offered was this: if we can find 10 or more of you who want to demo, we will charge $30 a day per person (regular is $40). If we can't find 10 people, there will still be a deal of some sort available. What this will be is unclear, my guess is at least 15% off, maybe even $30 a day anyway, we'll just have to wait and see who responds.

So whoever needs skis - PM me! I need to know how many are coming!

Demo Shop Skis
Some wondered what skis would be available if they demo'ed something from Deep Powder House. We are currently carring Head, Volkl, Salomon, and Rossignol. So out of these brands, skis that you would probably be interested in include:

Head : M85 - 85 mm waist, fat n' beefy
Mi75 - 75mm waist, still beefy as hell, but more of a midfat if it isn't super deep

Volkl : 724 AX4 - this year's G4
724 Pro - Midfat that splits the AX3 and the AX4
Explosive - But its last year's, so don't get excited

Rossignol: B3 - The Dream Maker
B2 - Money when the snow is tracked

Salmon: Pocket Rocket - Need I comment?
SScream Hot and Xtra Hot - All mountain. The pilot system is kind of like the weights some joggers carry when they run.

I'm liking this idea. Haven't skied solitude in prolly 10 years. Depends on the money and if I can get a delay in the work start time.

wellsir, I just poked 'round real quick and I'm willing to rent a mid-size car from dollar for $160.86 for 2/6-2/10 if somebody is willing to split it with me. SUV is more expensive $266.60 and sick minivan is $244.75

So, if anybody is willing to PM me and commit to throwing in some cash on a rental I'll gladly put it on my credit card and haul maggots around. annnd once again for the 2 people that don't have my flight info, I'll be in SLC at 11:25 on 2/6 and flight leaves at 3:40pm on 2/10.

Will have change for nickel.

i'm down for solisunday.

**cololi** · 01-26-2004, 01:38 PM

Solisunday? I am leaning in this direction. Depends on my legs after a day in the bc on Sat.

**vinzclortho** · 01-26-2004, 03:16 PM

I rented a car.

You've got a PM.

**Dodger** · 01-27-2004, 05:28 AM

Vinzclortho,

I'm in for a ride as paying passenger. Assume we'll meet up Friday afternoon/evening at Alta. I'll send you another PM with details.

**Dodger** · 01-27-2004, 06:28 AM

Bought my plane ticket!!! Arriving early for warm up and will be skiing LCC from Tues 2/3 then following the maggots around and finally leave Wed morning 2/11.

All I need now is accommodation, am thinking of Best Western Sandy for all the stay except Friday and Saturday nights up with GT40.

Is anyone interested in a room share any nights in this date range? Cost seems to be about $37.50 plus tax, including "full" breakfast. Send me a message.

Praying for snow......

**frozenwater** · 01-27-2004, 01:47 PM

It would not be a utah mini without a house party. I would love to have the maggots over to casa frozens, but not sure if there is time/interest.

So, should we have a party, and what day?
