After watching the WROD via webcam for opening day I decided to wait until the second day to venture up to A-Basin. All photos were taken with cell phone due to catastrophic Energizer leakage inside camera.
Being my first time over Loveland Pass, I had to stop and gawk.
I got to the Basin around noon. Luckily the lines were half as long as 1st day. Overall it was a good day with a bit of hard pack showing up later in the day.
Look, I'm Michael Bay
Terrain park setup for all the gaper haterz
The crowd cleared out around 2 making for a fun afternoon. With my legs reminding me how much I have not worked out this summer I limped back to the car and headed up the pass to photoslu t some more. Cue gratuitous mountain shots.
Jong, maybe. Braggart, definitely. I don't care, it's skiing in October!
