I'm gonna see if I can sneak away from work this week to get some turns in... It would be an early afternoon thing if I pull it off.

They'll have Hooker beer truck there--not sure about the coolers. Last year we had a blast drinking buckets of beer while watching. :D

thats why im asking, last year we brought coolers to the hill and nobody seemed to care. this year with the beer truck coming, i was wondering if mtn ops wouldnt allow byob. (either way is fine for me, just dont want to bring a bunch of beer and be told to leave it in the car)

If they didn't bother you last year when they were serving buckets of Corona on the hill, then I'd guess you wouldn't be hassled this year either...but I don't know. I have no official capacity to speculate on that; just going by the precedence.

I'm thinking of just hanging at the bottom the whole time this year instead of the on-hill photography and just chilling and enjoying the day.
