So why not if you have to walk uphill or against the wind? Because skis are much better transportation than boots. Please don’t take off skis on a ski slope even if it’s flat..you have poles and can skate. Taking off skis on a mogul run or in the woods can actually be very dangerous and can lead to death, dismemberment or castration. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 I’ve skied Loveland 6 times and never been on that cat track. From lift 9 I just ski straight down one of the faces under the lift. You must have taken the easiest way down aka the herb route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pointed out some coyote tracks, talked about some mountain rodent for 5 minutes, and told me at the top of Lift 9 you can take a piss that empties in both the Atlantic and Pacific. Next ride on the Pomeranean lift, rode with him again and he didnt remember riding with me, so i trolled him by talking about all the topics discussed on the previous lift ride. I still dont think he remembered me from the previous ride. He was a really cool dude. Did he smell of pot?

Looks like my first annual CO ski trip was great success! My luggage didnt get lost, rental car functioned properly, and most importantly didnt get buried in the perder. Thanks for reading, tune in next year for the sequel. What hotel did you stay at in Denver? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Lion Inn by the airport was pretty rad. There was a MacDonalds nearby so I was able to eat some chicken tendies prior to repacking my boots and RTMs for the long flight. I really enjoyed the flight and looked out the window the entire time, 95% of the flight was clear skies which is pretty rare. I saw the great cities of Omaha, Des Moines, Davenport, Fort Wayne, Indiana PA, Altoona, and Hershey. It was sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momskeeztoo Posted February 13, 2019 Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 I love flying out west. Sky is usually clear, and I’m always amazed at the scenery. Every time I fly on east coast, it’s nothing but clouds and haze. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saltyant Posted February 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 Nice pic. I always make sure to get a window seat without the wing obstruction, and also on the side not facing the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltyant Posted February 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) Kept hearing a plane overhead so checked flightradar24. Looks like this plane is not going to Wilkes-Barre but is diverting to Harrisburg. That really sucks for them.

Would you be upset if your flight plans changed and you ended up with the middle seat for a four hour flight?? Happened to me last week. I prefer window seat cause I don’t pee that often and like to lean my head against window. I usually keep the window down when I have window seat.

On my way to Yellowstone I almost got the window seat when they rebooked me to Dallas. Before boarding I asked if there were any seats available, and they said "we have the perfect aisle seat for you", it was next to the restroom. Once I boarded I realized they were being a smart-ass, but still better than middle seat. I've yet to get the middle seat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABE/LVIA as a kid was fun to hang out at the OG Wawa (without gas) or Gregory’s to watch planes land. I enjoy the air show they have had recently too. Hard to get a bad seat.Now with flight radar just watching the major cities and the amount of traffic is exciting. It’s impressive with the volume they have to deal with.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
