    Friend of mine, who's actually a good skier, told me this story yesterday. She was coming down Red Dog face at Squaw--moderately steep, wide, usually firm runout of an otherwise easy intermediate run. She sees someone slowly snowplowing down, obviously struggling and makes a mental note to give her a wide berth. Yet somehow manages to misjudge speed and takes her out. The two crash into the slow banner near the bottom and wind up wrapped up in it and skid to the bottom. My friend's husband (also my friend) looks up to see the large orange ball coming down the hill--can't figure out what it is until it comes to rest at his feet. It took him a while to compose himself enough to help untangle his wife and the innocent victim. No one hurt.

    No, that's not true. He's constantly satirizing the testosterone filled dude that has to be all core and shit in conversation about everything in their lives. You're the little bitch that constantly has to say something all teenage girly to insult people here in order to make your miserable life a wee bit better for the moment.

    Was at the gates to board a 6 pack lift solo when a 20 something couple slid up and boarded with me. After loading and settling the guy pulls out his iPhone and looks at it intently. The attractive woman (as far as I could tell blurts out "you should pay attention to me not some chick your brother met on Tinder!" He didn't answer, but put the device away and we all watched the scenery in silence.

    Technically there wouldn’t have been a bbi without Digitaldeath. In reality I had nothing to do with it but hope to attend.

    It did look steep the one time we saw it.
    I think I heard once that it's the steepest ski area in N Am but I have not source for that lol
    but yes can be icy since it's north facing. Lots of race teams come there to train
    either way it's a nice little resource. if we didn't have JHMR right there it would probably get skied way more

    I might believe that Snow King has the steepest average pitch of any resort. Never been on it, but that front face above town is no joke from what I recall.

    The girl telling her boyfriend to stop looking at his fucking phone? Yeah, she gets it. Sounds like my kind of lady.
