Ultra
The latest time killer. I’ll have to do it one of these years, question is, what mode of travel? I’ll have to ask Pete. I love the sled. Looks about 1/2 the size of most others. Condolences to Geoff and Jill, DNFin is a mofo.

Daylight savings
..time happens in a week. Not sure what I think about that. Got out to the Crystal Theatre this morning, feeling a bit foggy on the skin in from a few too many Mighty Arrows and Mojitos (from our mind plant) last night. Snow was a bit crusty and damp on exposed slopes, still plenty…

Guide postscript, and how weeks go by
Got the Guides out for ~2 hours yesterday morning in perhaps the worst snow I’ve ever tried to ski. Rain fell Tuesday evening, then temps went below freezing a while after dark, and more precip fell overnight. The result was cement with an extra-crispy crust below 4.7k, and a thicker but less snappy crust with…

Today’s skiing
Is brought to you by slednecks. Not really. Spring weather continues, today is another of the clearest days I’ve yet seen hear. Colorado spring weather, in fact. Best get amongst it. Gear shout out to the BD Bullet pack, circa 2003. Back when Tom Jones was their head pack engineer, before he quit and the…
