Bummer Eli, Jerry and I were thinking about you guys. We thought you would have had much better weather than us. We were talking about Hidden Lakes Peak Friday. Jay

Ah yes, what a great trip!! Out of all the skiers that went down they missed the east side gully. It was nice to cash in on it. Almost like we were on the mountain alone. As for the three tele ladies...
For those of you who were wondering they had the first annual Granite Mountain Summit performance of "Robin Hood Men in Tights."
Hey androolus, can gwanch ever be classified as mank? If so what kind of mank rating would you give it?
Patti and I were across the freeway at summit west. We just picked up some new gear and wanted to check it out before heading off piste. My first tele day I'm hooked!! ;D We had plenty of sunbrea...

Nice work that was fun to watch! Put a smile on my face ;D
Thanks for the skin track! ;D
