In addition to the last post's ramblings on the season, I thought I'd add a few notes on other great times.
**Taylor and Becca coming out for a week! Great to ski with the two of them, even if only for a day. I think Taylor got a great tour of the mountain, even got all the way out the Devil's Castle traverse (only time I did it all season too!), and hopefully was thoroughly exhausted when the day was over.
**Seeing brother Evan on skis. Evan got a bum deal with his foot being flat and slightly turned out, so to see him deal with the pain and try skiing for the first time in years was a great thing. It meant a lot to me to see him do it and check out a bit of Alta with Russ, Mom, and I. It was a great morning.
**Mom skied 6 of seven days she was in Utah. That is awesome and she should be proud of the great shape she's in!
**Garett and Scott Law coming to town was perfect. With all the connections Garett has created in the canyon, everytime he comes to play is a treat. But bringing Scott along as well was a bonus. We need more of that in the canyon!
**Skiing Cardiff Pass on the December full moon with a full gang of folks in 2 feet of fresh snow is something I will never forget. Evening face shots are magical.
** Monday, February 7th. 20" overnight, 10" during the day and the road to Alta was closed all day. Best day of lift service skiing I have ever had...by far. By all accounts it was the best day of pow skiing at Alta in years...country club days.
Sundog outside the lodge on another powder day.
Jess and I at the bowling alley...
Moon rise over Mt. Baldy
Red Bull and vodka shotgun...forget the name of that one. This was during the first closing weekend at our little bbq on punk rock off the wildcat lift.
The New Year's eve torchlight parade. We had a great time skiing down with flares in hand, another highlight of the season.
Being silly in the lodge with friends.
Best one piece suit of the year, Chris looking like gumby.
Here I am slutting it up with a mule kick at the last jump party.

Classic sunset in the canyon...
