    Skiing every month. August mission. Whistler area.

    Me and Steve are trying to ski every month this year. This trip was sweet. We were making turns only 2 hours from the car. It was so good we took 3 laps!

    Well done. Those the 99s or 105s?

    Sent from a mobile telephone (how crazy is that?!?)

    Those are 99's. They are are sweet.
    We skied Brandywine in June, Locomotive in July and now Metal Dome in August, all of which were pretty easy and resulted in pretty good skiing (all things considered). I think September is going to be the hardest. The most likely options are the Anniversary Glacier or Wedge Glacier. Or I guess we could go down to Baker but its a bit of a drive for us. Would be interested to hear other peoples suggestions.

    Kudos!!!

    That is the way I started mine. The goal was 12 months...I'm up to 94. It is a bit harder going living in Ontario. :O

    Nicely done!

    I think we can all safely say, it's too damn hot in the city.

    Excellent work. Smeary sun cups = tasty summer treat. Never quite managed to bag August or September myself. Best of luck to you in September.

    Excellent!

    Your August turns were way better than mine.

    I've always loved the jackhammer solo in that song.

    That's what I was thinking as I clicked on the link. What a silly thing to do, and something I've always planned on doing ... one of these years.
