Heh, the dope is this: last night some friends of mine and I were sitting at the bar, and they suggested I should go ask Pat to groom the outrun. I told them that I would certainly not ask him that, but I would go discuss it with him.
I walked over to Pat and said, "So how many more inches of snow do we need before the Outrun has enough to groom?" Then I said something to the effect that I, not being an idiot, understood that in the past two days, only four inches had fallen on the rocks-to-14"-moguls that had formed there in the past couple weeks, but people were putting me up to ask the question. I also mentioned the idea that with the oncoming cold, a snow gun on the Outrun could bring it to a groomable depth.
Pat didn't get defensive, but naturally, acknowledged the wisdom of my statement, then left the bar, fired up a CAT, and headed up the outrun, as the guys that had prompted me watched in stunned confusion from the deck, I too was surprised, and asked, "Did that just happen?". Well, Pat told me after coming back down, that it was something to do with a snow gun.
Then it snowed 6-10", based on not just the report, but from personally skiing to close on Thursday. In addition to the inches, it was a very frosty night which dried out the snow immensely. the Outrun was certainly groomed in the morning, after the night's snowfall, as I could see corduroy on my first time down it today.
I got many a lap-full of snow today, some of the best turns of my life I think, steep, rollover falling through space type turns WOW!
However, the mountain got hammered down hard today, by a powder starved throng such as is rarely seen at The Bowl (since we rarely have much snow), and by the end, only the most cagey prospectors were deep in it much.
Great day at the Bowl!Last edited by Rasputin; 01-11-2013 at 10:26 PM.

Nice work, Rasputin. That was definitely a leg-saver yesterday. The swarming hordes no doubt appreciated it.

I had 3rd chair and was the first down griz. I had planned to hit west ridge but lavelle was closed and the lifty literally stood in our way and said not to line up at lavelle. Never had time to set up my go pro. Tear.

I'm not going to 'make you', More likely I'll 'prey for you'...
It might be time to take some personal stock.... if you're trying to take out someones knee with your skiboot, taking swings at strangers, and acting like a petulant child in a lift line your not in control of your emotions or your life.

Stuck, every day is a new day and a new chance to interact positively with people. By and large people suck and are slow drivers, but there are exceptions. Rise like a phoenix from the ashes, young stucky. Don't invite the attention of "big sis" if ya know what I mean, by getting all aggro on the webs. Take your anger out on the snow and the rocks and the trees, feel the power of the dark side flowing through you, young Skywalker! And don't you have a brother in Montana as well?

Yeah, I got a decent job for now while I finish school, so that good. Someday I'll type the whole story as best I can remember, but the tgr crowd will probably still tell me I'm a cunt which is why I'm not super eager to tell it. Well, the Snowbowl crowd anyway. We all know what cunts they are.
Thanks for the kind words. My brother has been in Cheyenne for the past year and a half because of his wife's work, but I see him occasionally. With any luck, they'll be back in Helena in May, around the time I graduate.
yay.
Another thing I don't get: If I need to have so much experience to get an entry level IT job, where the fuck do I get more experience? Seems like a Catch 22. Stupid economy.

Let me get this straight:
Angry young kid passes long time local on access road.
Saves how many minutes, and ends up being in parking lot before one car that he otherwise would have been behind.
Gets called out for it in the lift line, and then flips out, blocking others from being able to load lift.
Wow! What a winner.
Bet Stuck is one of those guys that drives like a maniac to get to the hill, and then hangs out in the parking lot for fifteen minutes getting "ready".
LMFAO.
o.k. done cunting up your guys thread. Have fun.
