What a day. Got there early for rockstar parking near the grilling zone and Mike rewarded us with free shirts, hoodies, beanies, and stickers! Had my arrival beverage and got out for some early morning turns. Met and saw a lot of skinc'ers out there today, too many to list. The snow was really fast in the morning, and like always, it wasn't crowded. We got in five runs before we headed back out to the lot for some more ice cold tasty beverage. After that break we returned to the quad and saw the crazy lines had appeared. Lift 6 was up and running, but even it was getting crowded by noon. We had had enough of the waiting game so it was back to the lot to check out the grilling scene. Big thanks to 2slik for having the propane grill out and cooking my london broil perfectly. Dude cooked some mean ham and was hooking up all kinds of food to hungry people in the lot. It was quite the scene out there, everyone seemed to be having a great time. Can't wait to see everyone else's pictures.

Chapelphish had to bounce so we were out by 4:15pm. It was awesome to meet so many people out there. I had a blast. Big thanks to Mike and Beech for setting this up and getting so many people a great deal on lift tickets.

That was a blast and met a ton of awesome people. Most of which I have no idea what your names are... Troy and Doug (?) stuck out a ton of runs with us and took vid and pics galore. Also - thanks to Mike for the free swag!



Next weekend = trying not to bust my *** on ice, and drinking more beer. Mostly the beer part.



Thanks again everyone.

Great meeting you guys today. Next week we'll do it up right again. Hopefully the lower lift lines won't be as bad and we'll be able to get more runs in on the front side ot the mtn.



I got lots of pics. I'm going to try and post some tomorrow. I'm about 1.5hrs short of being up a full 24hrs. It wouldn't be a great time without a little pain and agony... :rolleyes:
