3 Cat Patrollers end the season in Southern Colorado. Great skiing but the hiking is tough above 12,000 feet

True that --
I haven't made it to Silverton another reminder I should, thanks
I'm glad they let you out of the correctional facility -- if I end up doing time I want to be incarcerated there

So true,went there last year about this time.Dumped snow all day and loved it.Its definitely on my list to go back.Need at least a week to get adjusted to the elevation.the altitude will kick your butt

Unfortunately, got altitude sickness after only two runs. Prior day at Wolf Creek no problems. Here are some more photos
San Juans come into view
First day at Wolf Creek
Farming the left over 12" of snow left over two days prior, beautiful glades off the Alberta chair, saw maybe 6 people over here the whole day.
At Silverton, last time I would smile for two days
Brent
Got to take pics the next day nursing my monster headache while Gordon and Brent skied Silverton again
Gordon and Brent ready to hike
Town of Silverton
Montrose Airport, where we got to sit on the plane 4 1/2 hours waiting for a mechanic and engine parts. Allowed me to miss my connection in Atlanta. Thanks to Gordon for putting me up over night. Not my finest trip but good times with good friends
