Too Busy Pimpin Miss Snowflake
Well actually that's not true, I'm actually too busy with 3 jobs plus raising a kid and keeping my wife in the mentally sane side of this world. Luckily all three jobs are pretty fuckin sweet in their own right. Haven't had much time despite all the good snow, to make a lot of turns. The snowpack here is now deep, i haven't seen plowpiles this big in 4 years (2002-2003 season) in NE. While it by no means compares to the 2000-2001 season, the past 6-8 weeks have seen plenty of epic days.
This past Saturday I was patrollin at K-mart, got in a few runs with the posse consisting of PVB, Git er Dun, Pierre's friend Phil and of course Erik B. The first few runs were deep, 20" of Sierra cement were reported the day before with the upper mountain closed. While the winds were strong up high on the ridges, the trails down below were barely touched. My first run down Downdraft proved to be the run of the day. The pitch on the second half of the trail was steep enough for Miss snowflake to provide my mouth with some snowballin action. While soft snow was the prevalent conditions of the day, the 15,000 people that were also on the mountain made quick work of the virgin snowflakes. Nice round, soft, fleshy bumps were just looking to be played with, bouncing up and down in front of your face all day. hmm...probably having too much fun with this
Had a great time skiing with the boys, wish we could do it more often. Now that the snow pack is in place, hopefully this spring the snow sticks around for a while. It sounds like I will putting in my maple taps this weekend, suppose to be in the 40's all next week, first time since MLK day we will top 40 degrees. No pics for you TK, just stories. Oh and what the hell are you doing to that cone, keep it together man!! Does erica know you like sticking inanimate objects up your ass?
