    Demos for Dummies (try before you buy in NE)

    I demo'd Icelantics at Cannon years ago that was pretty cool Nomad 105s. They were super playful. So indy brands do show up from time to time.

    Ski jail/Vail jail. The ski-pass cops are looking for a few naughty boys and girls. Somewhere & Sometimes.

    Not because of trying to ski free but our son got busted skiing backwards in a beginner skiing area and got a written warning for wreckless skiing and probably skied better than most in that area. fast forward two weeks - we are skiing at Vail and there was a yellow jacket just be for the lift...

    A beer or drink at Lunch, a warming shot on the Lift, a sip in the Woods. Do you?? Don't you?? How far have you seen a person drink and Ski or ride??

    From Snowdon Express, we saw a guy skiing shit faced with a PBR in hand - everytime he fell he would raise the beer in an attempt to not spill or drop it, The he got up and ponded down more - he was dangerous.

    Ski Resort Response to COVID-19

    They no longer need to go deep up your nose. I was tested recently and they go in just a little and have you breath for about 30 seconds then put it in a tube. East peasy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ski Resort Response to COVID-19

    AND a negative test? The insurance companies are not going pay for Covid tests every time someone wants to go skiing. The test on your own is about $90 and another $99 for lab results at least here in Colorado. We just did it to go on vacation. And that is per person. So the Covid negative...

    What in the Sam Hell is going on out West

    I agree! We did and that is how we found out! Denver to Miami and on the way back Miami to Denver filled to the max! There is no service. Miami to Turks and Caicos was about half full mandated by T & C. BTW Miamiairport restaurants are also fully open. Not the case in Denver. Sent from...

    Ski Resort Response to COVID-19

    Did you notice that the flu deaths stopped in January? Even the CDC estimates that flu deaths range in the 24 to 60 thousand range but it is not clear as many cases many have been counted as COVID-19. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ski Resort Response to COVID-19

    It is not the non locals bringing it in - maybe in some cases but not 100% there are locals that are also getting it by commingling with locals! Technically when this first started there were non locals that brought it in but once it was in a state it does not mean non locals kept it going...

    Ski Resort Response to COVID-19

    We say fuck it but with responsibility - we have traveled, hiked, eaten out, gone to events and all has been good! It is those who say fuck it and assemble in large crowds or feel invincible that are being stupid. In Colorado the three main groups are nursing homes (still), prisons, and...
