That'll never happen in my house. It'd be more like bourbon and Slayer.

I go along with the jam band and bluegrass thing sometimes because if I didn't I'd have no friends but that music generally makes me wanna stomp on a banjo. Probably the biggest thing I miss about living in a city is the music scene that doesn't revolve around jam/grass.

As far as the weather, yesterday was pretty damn nice sliding in the woods with the dog. Maybe I'll write a banjo song about it. Fuck!

PPS

I could have written that except for the part about my friends liking that shit or me going along with it. Anyone remember Slades Underground? We used to have punk and metal bands frequently. Ski towns are so soft these days.

The Steamboat lodging prices escalated quickly. My wife and I have been staying at the Steamboat Hotel a few times a year for a decade for $100 or sometimes less. Luckily I've got a couple hook ups but shit is outta hand.

or if you can make it over to Centennial I always went to Eskimo back when I lived down there. Great small shop.

Good to see Eskimo getting some attention. I thought it was too far south for most maggots.

I grew up in the chatfield area so was pretty quick to just hop on 470 or county line and head there. Plus they were one of the first shops in the area to carry a whole lot of Armada stuff which I was stoked on at the time.

There used to be an Eskimo at belleview and Broadway where I lived for several years, gave them quite a bit of biz. Not sure if they always had two shops or just moved or what.

I think they closed the Denver store.

I used to go to Colorado Ski and Golf. But after they became Epic they couldn’t even mount a pair of skis. The Epic shop guys actually recommend Eskimo, and it’s been my go to shop ever since.

I wouldn’t trust anyone there but one person before but nothing changed but the name. They were owned by Vail long before the name change. Same employees no golf.

long range is not looking.. great. could really use a reset here. I mean the basin was still fun today but seems like more rocks are making there way back out, waterfall is skiing kind of rough for instance. the face was pretty smooth for ripping down fast.

But….Joel said they’d be a pattern change in two weeks one week ago….

Tomorrow's 1-3" should reset things nicely
North Glade & International were riding way better than Alleys on Sunday, but it's pretty beat out there. Sharpen those edges!

Just took all 3 pairs into Eskimo to get 'em sharpened and waxed.

Guess that'll guarantee at least 3 more weeks of high pressure.

The RFV’s skiing great.

I’m out of town but I heard Breck was a bit sleeper skiing boot top deep above treeline yesterday.

The high alpine was skiing pretty well on Sunday even without much recent snow. Elevation and a little wind makes a difference.

Iceboat serving up the #ChampagneIce, getting full mileage out of my rock skis this year. Light flurries now for some dust on crust action.

I was hoping we'd get massive dumps to scare away the new covid wfh'ers that hate shoveling, now I'm thinking maybe they'll leave because we're not getting shit. Double-edged sword for sure. Wishful thinking...

[Chair 6]

^ and yet my wife says the covid transplants she works w/ have been complaining about all the snow and lack of sun. Aside from a few inches here and there the last storm cycle here was 3+ weeks ago from what I remember.

WTF?
