maybe digital death saves some kittens from a tree and befriends blurred 11* on an AK heli trip?


*well unless he IS blurred, and presuming he/she/ Xe is real.

or KQ and Damian Sanders make a bakesale for..... well I don't think there would be one thing they could agree on to do charitable work for.

I'm just here to say that despite the fact that he occasionally gives me shit, Benny is one of my favorite posters here, and has been for years. I think the dislike largely stems from people who get uncomfortable when someone is direct and calls things as they see them. I appreciate and respect astute pessimism.

The only thing worse than a young pessimist, is an old optimist.

^^^ Benny: today was as good, if not better than, the day you & I skied. Pow halfway to my knees. Remember all those tree runs over on Moonlight that we were looking at ? That's what I skied all day today. Where are you ? Get back up here !

I had a ton of fun skiing with you. Don't be a stranger.

Dude, thanks, but, I don't pay retail. As I said, you are a lucky dude with that at your doorstep. Enjoy.

You skipped epic all time day with Harry at Big Sky for a few bucks?

[yeahman]

Big Sky April passes just went on sale...22 days for $199. FYI

[Viva]

I kinda dig this baseball shirt + emblem combo.

"Real Mag Qality" belongs on a "I skied with AKPM" tee shirt.

Benny let's ski Alta this week I'll take a day off work if need be. Will likely be good sun afternoon, Monday, Tuesday, and maybe even Wednesday due to delayed terrain openings.

Benny if ya come to SLC please holler. That is all.

Next few days is looking like a proper Wasatch sno party! Count me in if Bunny comes to town. Anyone who rips on Lhasas has to be a good guy IRL! I got some supreme hookups on lift tix so retail does not need to be paid and I also have some beta on hotels with the best pocket meat selection in the valley!

snowing in colorara

[BigDaddy]

No way. I've been learning that making bitter old white guys smile on this trip is almost a life changing thing. I could tell you stories.

I don't think you could top this story just as it is. Your ascent from crusty curmudgeon to "Maggot of the Month" is already one this years more bizarre tales. Maybe if we could get you, DD and DSM to Magic Mt., that might be something even Kissinger would be proud of.

[Aldo]

This reply should be good. Nice job.

[Toadman]

No doubt. Sometimes paying retail for powder is something you just have to do. It's cheaper than heli time.

[Toadman]

Kissinger is a war criminal.

Hemingway then.

[BigDaddy]

^ or Jimmy Carter, if we want the pure of soul.

I would have gladly chipped in the extra $10 so Benny could have skied. Seems a shame to miss that, but thanks for saving me some. (Maybe you really are ok?! )

[yeahman]

Bridger is only 60. And worth every penny.

There you go. Now you can get even cheaper by doing the mom-and-pop ski area tour up to Great Divide near Helena, which has been getting pounded, then down to Discovery ski area near Philipsburg, which has a very worthy steep backside. Pretty sure both mountains are under $50 a day. If you can only do one hit Disco.

i thought it would be better with "change for a nickle?"

[Cosmic Suncloud]

so Harry is Bunny? whoa

[yeahman]

Yeah, I got the word on Discovery from an, ahem, local. But, I'm outta here, heading south. Next time. Montana rules.

Safe travels.

I would have done his base repair for free if the tenner was holding him back...

Remember the $52.00 video?

It went up from $52 but is it worth it if....

you cant ....

ski the WHOLE FUCKING MOUNTAIN?!!?!?! Should be ASHAMED.

[east or bust]

quite possibly the most epic freak out video that will ever exist

[east or bust]

there is no accent. I'm saying he's from Ohio.

On the bucket list. By the time I get there, it will probably be $65 to ski there. But I may be more than one year older when I do...

[Bunion 2020]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but, I'm pretty sure that's the only CHAIR in America, at least, that requires a beacon for a ride.

Sorry, the Moose out front should have told you.

Hah... Looking forward to popping my BB cherry this Saturday. I'm willing to bet, you'll be younger than me when you finally do it. Better late than never!
