Wow -- swamp, I'm just starting to digest this -- great report
Gondola with Father in law discussing Masonic symbols, you get epic son-in law points for that --
Capturing that greatness on film -- absolutely epic
I'm loving this -- you made the most of it .. I'll keep reading and check back later

Those pics are just beautiful. you're right, the view from pretty much anywhere seems to rock.
u didnt miss much...lots of mouth breathing, which is the main reason i put music over my stuff.
I start at about the first snow gun and stop at the final one.... if you want to google map it be my guest but I think it was around 500 feet total

Naturally this made me think, "I can do the face, it's not much steeper than whoopdeedoo" The Face promptly chewed me up and spit me out. I got to learn what "uncontrolled descent" means and by the time it was over I had a good case of road rash, a chunk taken out of my thumb and some bruised ribs. I also learned to get a locker or to wear pants with zipper pockets. It was a pretty good yardsale.
As in, word got around....I would ride the lift with people, and they'd ask, "How's your day going?" "Terrific" "You're not hurt?" "You saw it huh?" "No, but I heard about it from some people" This happened more than once:)
This is Hall of Fame material. LMAO. Glad you weren't hurt Swampy.

next time, SELF ARREST! Cool pics though glad you had a fun trip and the wipeout didn't slow you down. If you're not fallin' you're stallin'. That looks like some premium sundeck/beer drinking conditions.
