  1. DO IT! It went up 19 bucks. That's nothing. Do it up bud.
  2. Nice Mess. If your wife skis take advantage of that. Ski trip with her every year. Next year take her out west... Offer to renew your vows at Loveland or something along those lines.
  3. Not to bump this thread but I probably won't ski again until Tuesday and I'm sitting here watching Curious George's Spring Fever special and the kids and currently under its spell so I'll grace you with a variation of Doug's good, bad and ugly dealios. Really Good - Hanging out and skiing with with Barb! - powder in Christmas tree bowl and the chutes at the boat - amazing views at winter Park - the Steamboat steakhouse and the Irish joint in Winter Park - the cheap as hell Olympian pass / lodging deal.(window prices at $120 are insane). - great snow skiers right in Parsenns bowl and the trees below at Winter Park all the way down to the panorama lift. - Waffle maker at the Steamboat Inn. - Positive reactions to wearing a Tom Brady Jersey in Colorado. Good... - good snow overall despite how dry the west has been. - Weezer stoke on the way to Steamboat and the U2 playing from phillycore's phone (he's a closet fan) - snowing on Berthoud and Rabbit ear pass was good for stoke - Free hot chocolate at the base of Steamboat - The PA dude who liked my jacket in the panorama lift line. - The Steamboat local who gave us tips on the Morningside lift - Bluebird skiing each day - the lady working at the pizza joint at the Steamboat base with the female version of my name. Not so good.. - hiking to the top of Mt Werner at steamboat to ski what looked like untouched lines but was crud instead (totally my fault) - Phillycore's single ski ejection that travelled 100 yards down a steep chute nearly piercing both Dan and myself on the way down. - The rental car with 0 horsepower that could barely fit all of our shit - the drunk dude from Iowa with a cold, passing around a flask and coughing up a lung in the gondi at steamboat at 830 am If I think of more I'll post.
  4. Looks awesome...
  5. My entire house is sick. Plus I'm in no rush to get back on PA Hills after CO. I'm thinking Tuesday night.

    Injury

    Sorry about the injury Root. Heal up quick bro.
  7. Some. The best snow was up high. So that's where we stayed. There is so much to winter Park that I know I missed.
  8. Final thoughts while waiting for the plane to board... I can't decide which mountain I like better. Steamboat or WP. I may actually be leaning WP. When I eventually take the kids out west. WP makes sense since the mountain is pretty mild with the exception of a few areas of course. I could bring my kid up to the bowl and she wouldn't have any issues. And the town is cool with plenty to do. Wanted Vazquez cirque but it was pretty bare. A patroller said it was crusty and not worth the 45 minute hike (they weren't running the cat.) Steamboats trees are sick we just didn't get the snow to do them justice. X-mas and the chutes held great snow though. Pretty amazing since it's been so dry. That whole area of the mountain is underrated overall. Not much in the way of groomers to give the legs a break at the boat. Was nice to actually get some of that in WP. Morningside was fun but again snow could've been better. The hike up then down alarm clock to morning side was Sierra cement. The hike back up then down the N side (no names etc) was straight powder. Like night and day. Overall a kick ass trip with the fellas. The Utah mountains (bird, solly) still rank up there for me but boat and WP aren't far behind in my book. Finally a huge huge HUGE thank you to Barb for her generosity. So much fun hanging out with you. Hope to visit / ski with you again soon! Thanks again!
  9. Snow was good pretty much everywhere today (except for the trees) but especially up top. Vazquez Cirque opened with limited terrain and no cat access. Pics were taken in the bowl... Me and PC in Parsenn Bowl Yours truly Phillycore Me and Dan
  10. Why thank you kind sir
  11. Spent the morning on the Vazquez side. Then made our way over to the panorama lift. Last few runs were off of Parson Bowl. Best snow is up there
  12. Winter Park
  13. Worst conditions of the trip so far today. That being said it was 1000x better than home. Chutes and Xmas had best snow. Everything else was crusty. We hiked to the summit today and skied N St Pats. Currently in winter Park enjoying a PASR night with the coolest PASR by far Barb.
  14. PS the picture was solely a set up to make fun of Doug.
  15. I'm pretty sure pizza Hut doesn't deliver.
  16. Pillow lines. GSS style.
  17. Alright dude... You asked for it
  18. Phillycore is getting white boy wasted.
  19. You stop it now.
  20. Wow. This was 5 years ago? And I'm still posting on PASR? Time to re-evaluate my life.
  21. Well the over hyping of the elevator is kinda our fault. Lol
  22. Calling it a day I think. We finished up from storm peak down Morningside to the lift, down chute 3 to buddy's blah blah blah blah to Geanos pizza at the base. The best snow is up top and in Morningside. Some untracked and plenty of powder. Pics to follow. Dan got some baller shots
