WASATCH STOKE, CONDITIONS, OBSERVATIONS and ASSORTED DRIVAL 20-21

[Kevintheskier]

What the others don't appreciate is the fact that YOU can't let go with your inane drivel.

My drivel? You mean my ONE SINGLE post I made? THAT drivel???? Or do you mean all my responses to the countless endless replies to that ONE SINGLE POST?... Which is ironic since I am just responding to another one, made by you.

You keep claiming it wasn't the greatest day ever, fine,

I keep claiming it? I claimed it ONCE. You guys just want to keep claiming that my opinion is wrong.

but everyone else was stoked and has at least posted something positive instead of shitting and moaning about currency trading and inaccuracies in the reporting of canyon traffic.
Post stoke or STFU. It's fucking simple. Nobody would be arguing with you if you hadn't started your morning with a contrarian post.

First, I don't agree with your premise that everyone else was stoked. It is POSSIBLE everyone else was stoked, and that may be the case, but no one has actually said yet that they were stoked about Alta today (and seeing dejected faces going back to their cars at 11am would suggest it isn't true anyways). Virtually all the posts have been about arguing with me about my opinion. I assume all these people are office workers and have no place to comment either way because if they were STOKED then they would still be out there right?

Second, as I already pointed out (you guys with the horrible reading comprehension again) this is not the "WASATCH STOKE" thread (you are more than welcome to create that thread if you want). This is the "WASATCH STOKE, CONDITIONS, AND OBSERVATIONS" thread (and if we want to get technical "drivel" as well so that would also be welcomed here). I posted about the conditions and observations so my post was more than within the confines of the relevancy of the thread subject.... Your post however was angry vindictive cursing telling someone to STFU so actually it is YOUR post that is not within the subject matter of this thread. Not mine.... But thanks for playing and thanks for making yet another post for me to reply to that makes you look stupid to everyone else who would rather just talk about something other than what I thought of todays CONDITIONS AND OBSERVATIONS.

USA Bowl lighting up last march. Came out pretty good considering I use an iPhone SE and don't know how to take pictures.

Very nice, possibly the only pic I've ever seen of USAB that makes it look appealing

lol dude you really gotta relax

holy shit, mellow out kevin.

Dude's righteous indignation is increasing by the post, his understanding of what he's doing wrong not so much.
I think if we keep poking him there's a good chance he'll explode. Worth it in my book, I'm going for it:

Kevin, conditions are good but not great, observations are mostly that you're a gargantuan twat. Nobody likes you, go away.

i never complain when i get to be on skis.

Doing it right.

Down the memory lane of stoke we go, this page needs it.
12/16 a couple years ago, that was a great start to the season:





12/19 three years back, almost as low tide as this year, no grumbling about skiing rocks and crossing flats:



12/18/2016, W Scotties was already loaded to the gills:



12/19/2015, can't remember much but it looks like there was enough snow on Kessler to ski the Mitt and send couloirs, can't have been that bad:



Nothing in the phone before that. Bet I was skiing in 12/15ish/whatever year since the early 80s and was pumped about it.

Whyturn and I enjoying the uphill before a Memorial Day weekend pow lap.


Me last week skiing Alta on my 50th birthday. This was the best day ever at Alta, until the next day.

Snow will return like this soon and Joey above will hopefully return to Texas

Really? Because so far everyone who has tried arguing with me has gone away as will you... unless you want to pollute the thread. People like Benny and Jer would just drive you nuts not the other way around.

Kevin, conditions are good but not great

So now you are agreeing with me? Damn, I thought you would just go away, I didn't think I would actually outright win by you coming to my side. Glad you agree with me. I see you agree with me so much that today was completely forgettable that you and everyone else have resorted to posting nostalgic pics of better times. Thanks for agreeing with me but you don't have to go that far.

Anyone else in for a round of "Kevin says Alta sucks" stickers?

I'd take a few!

outright win [...] agreeing with me

I don't think these words mean what you think they mean.

As far as going away, if you look at the Wasatch drivel threads from years past I think you'll be disappointed. I tend to spend a fair amount of time in there until May.

Anyway, it's not the first time I use this pic but it's most appropriate right now:

[Kevintheskier]

Oooooh now I get it! After seeing all your pictures I get it! You guys are all OLD! It makes so much sense now. Old and cranky and filled with regret. Ahhhhh, now I get it. I should probably feel quite a bit of sympathy for you old slow guys trying to convince yourself that your days actually are good days but... I don't. At least I get it now though.... So is everyone here old as dirt?

[tgapp]

whyturn, jmills, TWA, and others - great fucking pics, thank you!

kevin, please, shut the fuck up

mods, sorry if that's not allowed or whatever, feel free to remove this post if inappropriate

i think i speak for a lot of us tho

[Kevintheskier]

kevin, please, shut the fuck up

Now you do understand all I am doing is responding to posts specifically directed at me? You do realize this? Just not sure if you have caught on to it yet since you speak as if I'm spamming posts or something.

[whyturn]

Antelope island locals got some attitude. I took this last year on a trip to the old farm.

some fucking bison stoke, i dig it

dude looks like an absolute unit

[mall walker]

lol will someone just please go skiing with kevin and explain to him how this works

[Boissal]

We're too old.
He could take us all in a ski-off.

That bison looks a bit close for comfort! Had a couple sneak up on us this fall while biking, they're impressive hunks!

[snowaddict91]

I already volunteered to a ski-off but he chose to ignore that one single post.

Kevin, do you have touring gear?

I feel the need to land on you Kevin but, I’m going to show restraint (and having a protracted word battle with a emotional moran is not conducive to the general well-being that is kept here). I lurk here often and have skied with some of these better balanced peeps in their backyard.

STFU and Ski Grunt (= recalcitrant boot)


eta: to the indentured... letthe smilly snowie piks of yore flow

[jmills]

Kevin, I’m usually at Alta every weekday afternoon. Let’s meet up for a beer or water from my cooler and take a lap or two together. I’ll PM a you my info.

[skuff]

I definitely didn't feel that last chair was best chair. For me at Alta best chair was 1pm an hour into the heavy snow but before it got too crowded. After that it did start to come down much harder nonstop but so did the people. Every chair was taken on Wildcat (and I think Collins too) and there is only so much terrain for everyone so despite the heavy snow the people were skiing it off quicker than it came down. I ended up leaving an hour early since it was clearly not getting better despite the heavy snow.

Is this your first time skiing at Alta? Shit get skied out faster than... something's that's really fast.
