    oooooh ye of little faith.
    as Z said maybe you all better just stay home tomorrow morning cause it will be crusty and wait for the sun to soften it for you to ski in the afternoon.

    btw, the below is to a vid of how bad the bird sucked today

    Yeah X, that looks like it really sucked ass. I hiked for a few turns on my home mountain. It was fun. An hour and 15 up and 5min. down. Tomorrow morning, the Mrs. and I will be at Alta. Too bad the kids get out of school on Fridays at 12:30. We'll have to leave the mountain by 11:30. Damn that Park City School system!

    Who's that gaper around the 1:07 mark giving the thimbs up? He looks like he's thinking "I flew in from NY just in time to get some of this!!!"

    I'll be at Alta tomorrow. Look for the guy on Powder Plusses with a Change for a nickle? sticker on his helmet.

    Alta did not suck this morning...








    but there was a lot of crust, and it didn't feel like 15"

    alta was crusty everywhere except north facing...

    had some great Devils laps in the afternoon, near the apron

    being 4/20 I had a nice burn session with some locals...needed that coming from 400' to 10,500'. It helps the blood adjust, or I feel it less anyways

    rode a lift with schindlerpiste.

    Skipping tomorrow and I'll be out Sunday for the close!

    I doubt it will corn by then, but either way, I want to get out.

    Let's ski wednesday. See what conditions dictate. Depending how bad you want to suffer, we could do some fun stuff maybe.

    Kush I got several pair of demo bros 188/192 and extra ski garb if you need.
    Where is everybody meeting?
    I'll be up probably skin out off Supreme for some untracked N facing goodness before the highboy festivities.

    I'll back up the sprayer on this one. It was good on that west facing aspect, much to my suprise.

    My first 5 laps through the Nest were great! I guess it took people a little while to figure out that north facing was the way to go.

    All in all, Friday was a great morning at Alta and exceeded my expectations. The last two days of pow were a great way to wrap up the season. I'll see you guys at the top of High Boy tomorrow!

    You need to be on the A.M. schedule. Afternoons were last week.




    If it snows I'll be up for a morning skin, anyone?
