If it's snowing, I'm going


Being an audiophile is fine passion, however skiing is what makes life worth living. A very good ski season is barely six months long, which is like only being able to hear your system for half the year, and look at pictures of it for the rest.

That’s what being a fanatic for the white stuff is like. And we’re at least as opinionated about piste/off-piste, resorts, skis, helmet’s etc., as any SET/SS argument. A-Basin and Loveland Pass opened last week. IT’S BAAAACK!

Is there a point here? Yes. A few months ago we had a thread that morphed into a discussion about the skiing obsession. It got deleted. I took notes of who you other guys were. I lost the book. I want to know who and where you are again. Anyone interested in Agon meeting on a chairlift at 10,000ft in CO, UH, BC, WA, CA, VT?

If you see a gold Maxima with “The Legend – Arapahoe Basin” license surround when you’re in Connecticut, wave, or give me the finger or something. Who’s ready for the season??!!

This year's trip to Whistler-Blackcomb is already booked, so, if anyone sees a yellow and black blur hurtling out of 7th Heaven a week before Christmas...it'll probably be me.

Otherwise I'll be in VT, NY, or stuck skiing the crap they call slopes here in PA. ;)
Snofun: I've been going up to Whistler every year for the last 9 or 10, so I know exactly what you mean about hoping I can see something. ; ) Up there it seems to either be whiteout or awesome-out. Grand views, if there are any at all. Late December sure isn't the best time to get them, though. It's usually snowing buckets with the wind howling like a banshee! Except last year. I think Ullr went on vacation last year. : )
Too bad I didn't find this until today :( I didn't have anything worth doing going on this weekend and might have gone for the helluvit.
