Trip Report:

after running around the city doing some bill collection. left the city about 3:30. on the ride up spoke to Root on the phone. gonna try and meet up while he is at kton and im at okemo.

pulled the lot about 5. the lot was pretty damn full but it really didn't look like there manny people comming down the choke to the lifts, so i new id score a spot in the first two rows. booted up and was on the lift in 10min flat.

jumped in the singles line and was on the lift in two chairs. i could see the had blown some snow on gorge run.

its a sd 790. they are still writing a new firmware version so you basically have the same options as any canon DSLR but the thing i want most is the ability to shoot in raw and bracketing. once i get the new firmware on i will be able to do some cool stuff. it and the sd1000 are the perfect size they fit right into the side pocket on my pants.
