There's an annual photo contest? I wasn't told any of this in my introduction to PASR 101

Colorado Ski Planning thread has officially turned into COVID-19 updates

That's a decent price for a SUP. Is it inflatable? How's it for transporting on your car? I have a Peak Expedition Inflatable SUP and I'm pumped to get on the water soon. I always have friends asking about it and the other SUPs in the market.

That’s crazy. If a coworker has it, it could have been transmitted to someone else in your office. Your coworkers could have it and just not be showing any symptoms yet.. Are you WFH this week? Stay safe I haven’t worked in the office since February 27th 😳

I know this is 10+ days late... but did anyone else notice that “cancelled” was spelled wrong like 3x? 😂

That’s a lot of cars... went to wissahickon today in Philly for a little hike and no joke, there were a crazy amount of cars. Should have taken a pic. The parking lot was overflowing and people were parking on the sides.

It's true though. He's super slow. I'm down for some touring or laps.

I’m working from home today and Birm’s farts are toxic after a Sunday in the parking lot. we got in a bit of trouble and don’t recommend it ... but we cruised down Burma Road at the end of the day

Amazing day. Here are some food porn pics from Chef @enjoralas spread

I'll bake some cookies. But, not the colorado kind.

The format of the date looks like a sudoku puzzle.... With no skiing pass I plan to tour up mt bleu will need a cold beer - a haiku written by skiincy

@EdBacon I love documentaries and snow. Curious what you come up with. Have you seen this one about Monarch Mountain? https://www.pbs.org/video/monarch-mountain-gmj3ww/

They don't do online orders. And there's a glitch in their system. Do you know if they accept fax orders?

@Mess - When are you going out to Colorado? Remember that some of the resorts close mid-April. Even if it's closing day though, they usually have 100" of base still. I would recommend skiing Keystone / Copper / Breckenridge. They give you varied terrain especially for your wife. Check out the maps. Most of the resorts will allow you to take a run down a black and her on a blue then meet at the same lift. But, I LOVE loveland. There's usually dogs, grills and people hanging out in the parking lot. It's a chill scene. For renting skis, if it's a big powder day and you don't have fat skis - you might want to rent. Otherwise, I bring my out there. I use this bag. It fits my 2 skis, boots, clothes, helmet. And, the roller is key while walking through the massive CO airport. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NK59SB9/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Reminds me of the ski porn, Pretty Faces. The production company, Unicorn Picnic, has a farting unicorn in the intro. Great movie if you haven’t seen it yet. It’s about a bunch of rad skier girls. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7TuVz2fnO8

Get your game on, go play

Hahah @saltyant & @GrilledSteezeSandwich After a wild day, tonight was a 14 course meal with all the different meats like Ghanaian peanut curry, Mozambican chill chicken wings, South African lamb, and seared ostrich meat, Today’s pic is from Cape Point, South Africa

Woot! @RidgeRacer if you pass through Gunnison, stop in High Alpine Brewing for a beer. It’s a great scene. highalpinebrewing.com

Grad school

no snow obviously but took a gondola up to the top of Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦 You can see the sun setting over the south Atlantic Ocean. Incredible views up there.

that's awesome. Beaver Creek does cookies on a platter at 3pm everyday and it really is lovely. But, must admit @enjoralas's meats in the parking lot sound better. More important question, who is going to photoshop @enjoralas face and the meats on this photo first?

looks fun! I'm definitely down for some touring adventures in the spring. I've been reading this book and have been getting stoked to explore more. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1934028142/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Who is changing it up this weekend and skiing Whistler with Chelsea Handler?

It was a hot mess of a fall.. 🙈 definitely don’t recommend it

Agreed with @AtomicSkier . But, it's cool to be cautious. He's right, tree wells aren't magnets but be sure you can control your turns depending on the tightness of the trees. I was out with a guided ski group in the side country / backcountry of Lake Louise Resort in 2016. Once we hit tree line, my speed was fast and the trees were tight. I fell then slide into a tree well. It was quite the adventure getting out.. only lost my favorite goggles, a cell phone, and my confidence to the Banff National Park. Push yourself but stay safe. If you dip into tight trees, ski near other people. Control your speed and enjoy the fluffy powder goodness.
