How are the crowds? Did the 6pack stop? Did someone with a starter jacket run you over?

Horrible. Yes. Yes.

But Annapurna is still sick. Deep deep manmade and natty mix. Several good lines.

Those lines are unacceptable. :)

Totally unseeded. ;)

Actually, the bumps were overall just okay. Kinda sweepy, but the snow surface was so good it didn't even matter. And there were several sections of actual zippers. The run kinda went like this: snow making whales with air opportunities > nice zippers at the top narrow section > into the steep section with awesome chalky manmade which was great to carve with random GS bumps here and there > various scattered zippers. The only thing that would've made it any better was some sunlight. Despite being basically bluebird after noon, Anna was in a shadow all day, except for the very top.

Did the 11-3:30 shift. Met up with kingslug at 1 pm. Beer/burgers at 1:40. Back out by 2 pm. Other good spots were 42nd street which actually had great lines the whole way. Nice and sunny too, but eh surface was not as good as 'Purna. Hellgate was good, nice bumps at the turn. Cliff was a hard pack city, but nice LSGR on the sides. Racer's was grea with fresh manmade, flat, but fun.

Overall, just a really really fun day. Nice to see and ski with kingslug again. It's been several years. The hot yoga is paying off....he barely seemed winded at all today. I was. :oops: :lol:

Great video! I did the morning shift and there was no sun at all over there. Looks like you guys got a bit up at the top at least. How was it late in the day? Seemed to be holding up well when I left.

It was great all day. Only one area that got scraped down to dirt and rock. Far skier's left. A stick or too poking through here and there-no biggie. Overall, excellent.

No worries. Like I said, we'll have a screening of it in 2017. :lol:
