I want to see this WestShore playground next time down in Kalifornia.

Thats bloggorific.

[Roo]

I'm very aroused.

Impressive skiing in marginal looking conditions.

No shit. When I was sking with 666 in Chamonix, extreme skiing capital of the Alps, I witnessed him veer off to one side, into what is technically "the off piste", rise off a small bump into the air, and while still airborne he spun an entire half turn. When he regained the sweet caress of terra firma, blow me if he wasn't facing back in the very direction he had come from, albeit now travelling at a fair old clip backwards. Never seen the like of it.

I do feel this trip report could have been better illustrated with more pictures.

[Deep Days]

That place is so ridiculously sick. After my first day there last week, my first words were "I want to move here." edit: Still trying to decide whether to do a TR. I'm lacking most of the pictures, but it was a wacky, wild, and very fun trip.

And in retrospect, 666, I'm kinda glad I didn't ski with you guys. You would have kicked. My. Ass. (Can you say "in over your head"?)

Excellent TR.

How often does KW look like that this time of year? I thought the mini golfing was awesome and am looking forward to coming back and doing it again, but from what I understand, coverage is shite right now... (Shite can be fun, apparently).

Baby it's cold outside.


But not too cold to snap 1,000,000 pics.

[Greydon Clark]

Everyone loves the east winds.

Its a hidden stash in the sidecountry and has a blind approach. For a small fee, I'll take you out there after you sign the usual release form, and for a couple extra $$$ I'll snap some pics to send to your parents. The pimp-daddy package includes lunch, to and from transportation from South Lake, coffee, locals information, comfortable cabin temperature, and photo book of the journey. Price TBD. PM me for me info.

[runethechamp]

Looks like a lot of fun. Wonder if I'll ever be able to hook up with you guys this year.

Don't do it! I signed up for the "extreme" package and all I got was the clap.

[TurxSki]

What, no free "surprise" base grinds ?

We were over at Sierra on Sat 13, lapping Eastabout and one of the BC gates.
Pleasantly amazed to find some soft & untouched, in the tree's

Used heat packs in our gloves for the first time ever. Still working past their sell-by !

What about a cool t-shirt? Aside from the clap did you get a cool t-shirt?

[Hicks]

Some really nice steeze in there especially when considering the conditions.
Awesome 666 et al.

[skimoore]

Yeah, but it wasn't mint green.

Of back hair?

Nope, straight from the eyebrows...

I would like to take a second to apologize for any Virtual Tennis shit talking I might have done. Crown and Redbull are a deadly match. I was informed later that i was not soft spoken when it came to winning. Once again, I apologize.
