Best Gaper qoute of the weekend?

[old goat]

(why are ski patrollers always so full of shit?)

Because they have to deal with idiots and assholes all day.

yep

Here's one that's the opposite of a gaper. A guy, probably mid-late 70's walks past me with some well worn Descente gear and Spyder gloves from the early 90's and a nice pair of Stockl GS skis. I overheard him say that 1/2 of skiing is looking cool. haha.
Turns out he was parked next to me and had been skiing with his daughter and granddaughter. At end of the day he was smoking a ciggy while his daughter took his boots off for him.

I wonder how many FT and Dalbello cab boots are sold to us 70-80 somethings. I don't want to be the guy who came into Olympic Boot Works to have his boots removed. Unfortunately my boots will probably outlive me so I might have to wait until my next reincarnation to switch to cabs.

A guy asks me, as I’m headed to a sidecountry spot, Do they dynamite it up there?
I say Dynamite?..for avy control?
Yeah he says.
I said no…they don’t do that here in Vermont.

Glad he was thinking anout avy stuff but he was perhaps a touch optimistic.
