Not yet, drinking cream with a little coffee and watching the powder dumping and local news. We're keeping an eye on the gondola and will go down if a line starts to form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a small run just to get a taste of skiing actual snow. Riding the gondola to the Sunshine area. Line wasn't too bad at the gondy. Jammed in with 7 dudes as we speak. The worker put my skis in 1 gondola and I almost went in a different gondola cab by accident (true story). Good thing the dude corrected me and directed me to the correct gondola. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enjoralas Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 I'm not having a good day, between conditions and vis, legs feel like shit but not gonna whine about it. Grabbing a bite in Rendezvous lodge then headed bad out to try to HTFU and make a better day of it.

I hate skiing in flat light, especially when off trail stuff isn't that great. It just isn't fun sometimes as you can't even relax because you can't see what the hell you're skiing in. It's all part of skiing real mountains. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post saltyant Posted February 24, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Taking a break at the condo for some pumpkin pie with whipped cream, a Mike's and some purple Peeps for sugar. It's so fucking sick out there. I've just been skiing around wherever there is Perder and pitch, the black diamonds feel like greens to me these days. Got separated from @enjoralas and @pops, the dumb tracking app on our phones isn't working right. This place is rad but finding the way back to the condo was a fucking pain! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad you were able to find your way back to the condo. Edited February 24, 2020 by GrilledSteezeSandwich 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
