    Ever write a letter that made it into POWDER?

    My first one, but I didn't win the free rig...

    Some of those eastern maggotchowds will undoubtedly want to touch you. Do not let them.

    I had one published once. It was a rite of passage of sorts for me and a couple of my long time ski buds.

    They threw a stupid joke of mine in a few years ago that they lifted from the old powdermag site.

    Letter published Sept 97.

    It was the only time I ever wrote in the 17 years of getting Powder. I remember being excited as hell when I saw it.

    edit: congrats, nice letter.

    Nice letter. I've written two and had two get in. One in November this year and also had the LOTM a couple years ago. Still have the prize , a pair of sparingly used Kniessl recreational GS skis hanging in the basement.

    Good luck. But once they get there, the stoke level is VERY VERY high...

    Goosey....

    I actually wrote another one about a month ago once it started turning cold. Curious to see if it will turn up...

    P.S. Congrats!

    Nice letter....funny shit.

    I too wrote one this year, and am hoping to see it....it isnt letter of the month quality though....just a comment (swapped a few emails back and forth with Ron Ige about it.....).

    Britney got letter of the month last year (so I am sadly living vicariously through my fiancée).
