This is Ajax(Aspen Mt) in 1969. I used a Kodak Instamatic. We were ski bumming around CO during college break, sleeping wherever we could(hotel basements, car, couches, etc.) The week in Aspen it snowed every night and every day was a bright bluebird masterpiece.

You could have some royalty checks coming.

i'm gonna guess by how ugly i was that these two are from the late 70's. pretty "big" air for me. it was from a nelsap area in the catskills named scotch valley which later became deer run. fun little place. if i remember they had a bowling alley there so you could ski & bowl.

Excuse my young ignorance, but what are those devices on the tips?

 

[SkiDork]

what were those called.... Can't remember the name but they were meant to prevent crossing the tips. Fad for a couple of years.

ski anti-tip crossing devices. kind of like training wheels. don't need them anymore;-)

 

[skiadikt]

here you go.

 

[SkiDork]

[RENO]

Looks like you screw those things into your skis? :-o
