  1. @saltyant can you post the haters gonna hate video. That’s one of my favorite ski videos on YouTube.
  2. One more for now. One of the great ski scenes from better off dead, shot at Snowbird Utah.
  3. Good: walking bare foot from my hotel building to NMSkis fireplace suite building down the icy wooden steps past the hot tub where I’d always catch a few sentences of conversation among Midwest ski club people. Somebody said they skied deep powder in Stevensons bowl off of apres vous(Saratoga)..maybe he saw Nazareth jay there. There was a younger woman in a bikini who didn’t have an ounce of body fat. She looked like a professional swimmer. If I had a chance to talk to her I’d tell her that if I was a professional swimmer I’d shave all my body hair in order to be more hydrodynamic in the water. She’d prob pelt me with snowballs and I’m alright with that. Yeah barefoot when it’s 5 degrees or minus 5 outside..maybe I’ll invest in some crocks for next years trip..I can put them in sport mode for walking the tree hundred and fiddy steps to the bagel place. Bad: when there’s 5 days left and you only have three clean shirts and three pairs of clean underwear left. Yeah I wore my Notorious BIG shirt like three or four times. Second time I wore it the waiter was calling me Big Poppy and I explained I only wore the shirt two hours the night before. I actually snapped this picture to send to my friend who gave me the shirt. I look faded
  4. Great topic on a terse Taco free Tuesday. I’ll start with the opening scene from serenade in Sun Valley. In the things gapers said thread on Teton Gravity, some lady on the chairlift at Sun Valley said that rich people ruined Jackson hole lol and sun valley is apparently a million dollars for a one bedroom condo SMH
  5. Nice, what’s the price of chili these days? I think at Jackson hole a cup is $13 and a bowl is $19
  6. Nice..no crackers for the chili? I guess you’re a purist.
  7. It went down colder than expected..currently 20 degrees in the A and 98 degrees in my A..not the band weirdo the temperature
  8. I bet Pops in in the Jacuzzi with a couple of Mich Ultras…you’re trying to upstage me when it comes to trip report prose and I don’t mind….waiting for NEXT!!!
  9. Some of y’all will like this. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jMR28OVAItg
  10. I was chatting with a friend about Jackson hole and she was asking me about the temperatures. The temperatures were mostly in the single digits through the teens early in the trip and then when it snowed they rose into low to mid 20s in the valley, colder on the hill and then after it snowed it was Joe Biden in the basement temperatures Oh Come on Man and then last morning was single digits and felt like the northern part of Miami. On the first cold morning when it was -29 booting up and my balaclava was free of boogers and dead skin, I would guess there were 80-90% less skiers and riders than normal. Where were those other people?? Eating breakfast slower than Nazareth Jay, laying in bed watching the hourly temperature rise from -26 to -24, we all know @saltyantwas watching the webcams with his pecker out. As long as you’re moving it’s tolerable. No peeing in the woods those days.
  11. Nothing was better than the bus and the cracker barrel. My rain man abilities have proven helpful as my mom and sister sometimes text me with questions they know I have the answers to. @skifreak you started this thread say something!! If Zonked, or the guy from the bar or one of Nancy’s friends doesn’t use my buddy pass you can have it skifreak I won’t even charge you for it.
  12. I’ll be up Wednesday..looks like it’s gonna be a beauty!!
  13. They used to have what was called a disco box that lit up..I used to hit that almost every run back in my Pseudo Jibhonk days of straight airs, spread eagles, 50-50 boxes and Tindys. I actually got mandatory air yesterday exiting Stalins Ditch..and any higher I’d need to see a chiropractor. Nastar Glenn would have been a foot higher cause he’s a couple pounds lighter than me..
  14. I told @Dirtwolf we need to check out a laser light show this summer..Matt edge attendance is mandatory I bet he even knows about Lumens..I’m more of a Watt kind of guy.
  15. My grandparents had a house at split rock and they drove 145 and over Blue mountain to get there..there was no PA turnpike at least PASR Allentown. I’ll have to look up when they put in the tunnel but I think 1960s. They used to stop at Nestor’s on the way to pick up ice skates. My uncles business partners Dad owned 100s of acres on both sides of MacArthur road that eventually became the Loews, Walmart, Staples Dicks all that. edit: Lehigh tunnel opened in 1957…I’ll tell you train stories the next time I see you at Blue prob wednesday AM or this weekend Because my business was founded in 1929 and was at a different location adjacent to route 22/the Lehigh valley thruway which wasn’t completed until 1954 so there was a railroad behind it. Some of the old timers still think of tilghman street as route 22 because it used to be 22 and at one time was Hamilton street where the liberty bell belongs
  16. A lot of out of town folks call it 145 and people who are from Allentown call MacArthur road 7th street.
  17. The main reason I visit friends and family is to play with their dogs.
  18. JLaw, your last Element was orange, what color was your first one? You had a Hyundai before that right? This black element is definitely faster than your last one. I know cause I was behind you in the McDonald’s drive thru yesterday and never caught up to you on the drive to Blue. You must have put the hammer down or lucked out and hit more green lights.
  19. All good I have to be super detail oriented cause of my job. Is your dog with you in CB for JFDan to play with?
  20. I think they should try it out on Yeti and expand it from there.
  21. 3” new snow earlier for Walt and Walt..I’m sure with some slash turns they’ll be some face shots in the pics they post later…woo..pumped for you guys!!!
  22. Which ski runs do you think they should add galactic lights to?
  23. Maybe snowmaking late tomorrow night into the morning.
  24. Do you mean the only groomed run??
  25. Id rather just drive to Philly airport. There is no closer Lehigh valley location to the Philly airport than the hotel house.
