I'll be there 5:30PM on for work... Will likely be tied up with the groom but I'll be on the hill after if you're still around.

It turns out I just realized I have Thursday off, and the kids have school so I'll have nothing better to do Thursday morning than rip some moguls...

Probably split around 1 pm and go grab my 4 year old and get her back out on the hill.

Good luck! It took nearly 7 weeks for my last bout of sciatica to clear up and even now, it acts up if I sit with bad posture using the computer for too long. Sigh. PT, massage, and keep moving. Staying still too long seems to make mine worse... Hoping for good news for you!

I'll be out for around opening.

I'm off thurs also. Was hoping to go north but it doesn't work out I'll be at sundown.

Let me know if you're going.

Say hello this time. ;)

Bummer. I had a bout of mid-back pain that woke me up after 3 or 4 hours of sleep. The only way to relieve is was to get up and walk around for an hour. That and a heating pad to loosen it up. It was a muscle strain apparently after recovering from my surgery and resuming activity too quick. Took 10+ days to go away.

Yep, said it's a muscle strain and gave me some anti inflammatory and muscle relaxers. Said it's ok to do activities and ski, but use my better judgment.

We'll see how it is tomorrow, if not will try to make Xmas eve if they are open.

They'll be open 8AM-5PM on Christmas Eve... Then they'll be closed Christmas morning, but will open at 6PM for the remainder of the day.

Jeff, hope you heal quickly...

Maybe be there for a couple of hours either late Thurs afternoon or maybe Friday morning.

Closing at 5:00 on Friday? Another economizer to save operating when walk up traffic is minimal??? ;-);-) Did Pat Riley buy Sundown while I wasn't looking....

IIRC, they've always closed early on Christmas Eve...or at least, the entire time I've been skiing. This isn't anything new. Same with being closed Christmas morning and opening later in the day. It's actually a really nice thing for employees at a family-run hill. Most people who work seasonal jobs don't get to spend time with their families on the holidays because where they work is open.
