Weekly Sundown Night Skiing Gathering: 2008-09

[Greg]

I started a similar [thread="19241"]thread in May[/thread] last year, so what the hell. This is one of the things I miss most about the season. Feel free to share any highlights from last year here.

Do Wednesday nights look good again for everyone next season?

Honestly, Greg, I have no idea what to expect next season. But your effort is to be commended.

Highlight had to be that Friday night when it dumped and Temptor just opened. Tons of snow and good company. The lowlight of the evening Marc. Espcially after he broke my brake and cut me off.


Wed. should work. Sliding day if the conditions warrant it.

Agreed on both fronts.

That was a pretty sweet night! On the flight back from A-Basin last week Randi and I were talking about our top 5 ski days of the year. That snowy night on the temptor bumps made the list at #5.

Wed. night should work for Randi and I

PS - Greg, we skied a REALLY steep bump run off the Palivinchi lift at A-Basin called.......................................wait for it......................................RADICAL. As soon as we saw the trail sign we both laughed and thought of you.

But if I made it, it would suck

 

[Beetlenut]

I should be good for a few Wednesday nights. Hopefully more than two this year.

 

[Greg]

Looks like they're pushing to be open until 4/4/09:

That's cool.

We're probably about 15 weeks out from these. Getting a bit psyched. Temps in the 40's this morning definitely gave me a bit of a ski jones boost.

By the time I left for work this morning it was in the mid 50s and felt great! I have this thing about driving with my windows down as much as possible and this morning was no exception (I did eventually have to turn a little heat on though. ).

 

[Grassi21]

WHEN DO WE GO!!!! NOW NOW NOW!!!

Wed. should be fine. I'm hoping to do 1 or 2 days a week with the pass.

 

[2knees]

i've been dying for this to start since the sundown challenge.


temptor then gunbarrel. I still cant believe it.

 

[Beetlenut]

Have short poles, will travel! Looking forward to more dumps like that Friday night in Feb. Work schedule has changed, but should still be able to make some Wednesday nights.

Yup. Uh huh! Once Gunny gets the love, there will be little need for me to travel except for powder days up North.
