I've seen like two rails on the collin's side under the shoulder. I feel real sorry for the "park crew" cause they're always there digging them out on pow days. Alta gets way too much snow for that shit.

It puked up there today, supposed to clear tomorrow...

When I'm skiing at Alta, I do feel like I'm just going downhill, but it's weird you're not going anywhere at all. Maybe you should switch waxes? Or maybe your skis are too skinny, and you've been getting bogged down in all the pow?

Cause that means everybody must be out gettin some. There's alot of snow all the sudden. Hope everybody's getting their fill, I know I have been.

Tripping adds extra layers to an experience. If you can handle being in that special state while doing something intense, it can be a beautiful, memorable, whatever, experience. It's not for everyone, I think experienced people kind of know what they are comfortable doing while tripping. I...

Elevator shaft (the NE chute) is inbounds. Going off other aspects from the top would be out of bounds.

Heh, all the talk of "no way could you ski on acid" makes me think of a rich concert promoter I met once. He had actually gone heli-skiing on acid. The quote I remember was "oh, it was awesome. We all just watched out for each other to make sure no one wandered into the tail rotor." So people...

I think that might be true, except it'll snow Tuesday, but not Monday we're supposed to have a break tomorrow. It's gonna be out of the SW though, warmer and heavier snow.

If you're experienced, go for it. I'd recommend a low dose - enough for some visuals and interesting thoughts but nothing too intense. That's like a 1/2 an 1/8 for me, but everybody's different. When I did it I had kind of a hard time coming up, felt shitty on the first run, I sat down for a...

There are just so many skiers that are so good. It seems like kind of a crap shoot as to who gets on film and who doesn't.

I have to work today, so I'm not getting any. Yes, it is puking. For the cottonwood canyons, 9-12" today, 17-22" tonight forecasted. A foot on the ground already at Alta. Tomorrow could be decent...

Dorms this morning, winter's here

A couple inches on the ground here at the dorms this morning. I decided to work today, which sucks, cause it's definitely a pow day up there. Cottonwoods Canyon forecast is calling for 9-12 today, 17-22 tonight. It's gonna be deep tomorrow. I'm not gonna be making it to too many classes this week...

Are you trying to say Arcteryx?

Comparisons are being made to Thanksgiving 2001 by knowledgable sources. I know it sounds crazy but 4 feet by the end of the weekend is a reasonable estimate at this point... It's gonna hit hard, break late Sunday, confidence low on any particular forecast for next week, but it's gonna be cold...

Normally it's because the skis were mounted improperly. Sounds like you're on top of it though, talk to both Armada and the shop, one of them should get you a new pair of skis.

A friend watched him go into a seizure in his bombhole at snowbird last season. His friends had to pull him out of his hole. I think that shows his hucking and his seizure problems are probably related. Definitely seems a little crazy.

I just don't want to die in an emabarassing way. Preferably something outside of my control that happens fairly quickly. Or by doing something heroic, that's really best I guess.

They aren't going to open until they get more snow would be my guess. Might not be until December with the current forecast...

Very sad to have a death so soon in the season, hopefully this story being all over the internet can prevent something similiar happening.
