Great trip report Jeff. Let me say that Jeff is exactly as Greg described him to me, a great guy and a great skier. Dude can pound some beers after skiing too.
I was sick that you missed the Slides Sat. literally by minutes. I got the call that they where open at 12:45, probably just as you where heading home. They where open early on Sunday. They skied great both days.
You have to come back for a 3 day weekend toward the end of the season next year. A day and a half is just not enough. Besides the Slides there is some other off map stuff I want to get you in that I know you'll like.
