Poll: how many have attended a Summit…

[riser4]

Indeed. Granted, that was a long time ago.

No shit. I met you and a few others at a NET fest at Jay. I still have the Voilé shovel that I won in the raffle. And as we predicted, my wife thought it was a great shovel for dog turds. I have had to rescue and wash it a few times. It makes a great car shovel.

[XXX-er]

he's not as much as a narthland hermit as you, eh


and hey, a few of us have been up to your latitudes, too. I'd love to go back one day.

not gona argue with that
looks like me 3rd from left

[MyNameIsAugustWest]

So who's up for inviting Buttah over for tea?

He keeps his circle small but if you're in that circle, you might be shocked...

Thanks for the kind words MNIAW. I hope to ski ya this season again. Too few turns last go 'round. Let's fill in some blanks. Bring Goniff, he's a go'er. And moar fun EC mags.

Singlecross, come back!!

Gonna try to make it happen fo sho. Goniff needs no encouragement...He's always up for a good ski. He might be at Mammoth right now.

If I start meeting you dirtbags, that might lead to us hanging out together. That of course means we might have a beer, make turns, or ride bikes with one another. Next thing you know, I’m inviting you to a party at my house and having people crash on my lawn. Now lord knows we can’t have that kind of bullshit going on.

The end of the EC Ullr-fest and the best one I went to although some of the earlier ones at Big Daddy's place were legendary from the TRs

I’m just trying to keep one step ahead of the maggot hoard. Despite my best efforts, some have found me and ended up crashing on the couch of my new place. Like fleas on a dog, I tell ya!

It's a great couch...

I consider myself irregular, but there was UT 2002 (scissor scrapings in Eagles Nest with Splat et al), Marshalls batch at Silverton (2005?) the Alpental BBIs, one BBI at JH and what, now, 3 EuroBBIs in Rueras, CH?
fwiw, possibly the longest TGR registered ongoing imposteur. (is Owens sleeping yet?)

BTW, I didn't see a poll...

You're going to leave out the original, stealth, Nelson/WW summit? We didn't even know what to call it back then. I recall it got a little write-up in Powder (with some of the facts wrong). I have some photos somewhere.

That one was the closest I've come to a real summit. I guess one day at Loveland years ago (LBD, which included my moment of greatest glory, triumphing in the Chinese downhill) might also qualify, along with a day or two at Magic when I happened to be around. Feel like the summits are kind of gone, for better or worse. Rob Story's fault??

I went to the Utah mini at Solitude because I was a local there, so I showed up for one morning. Met a bunch of great people who don't remember me! And some other great people too and had fun skiing with east or bust, Norse, yetiman, dibs, and more. Was looking forward to skiing with iceman splat and djongo but they just got stoned went to breakfast.

Where's Happytimefunbox aka thefujitive these days?

[lowsparkco]

I came across him somewhat recently in a thread on MTBR... and he was cvnting it up, of course.

[zion zig zag]

I lived in 11 acres when I first logged in here. After meetups, ski days, biking, camping, bars….had a big party on the UT/ID border. Full on Buzzapalooza. Mags passing out anywhere the could. Tripped over a Woodsy laying next to a tree around 3am. The UT mags showed up and kicked down.
Anyone remember that dude from Jackson that came down to party, long hair guy? He was the only super crazy guy I’ve met.

Didn’t I lose a shoe to that guy? Memory is fuzzy but I seem to remember something about vomit and a shoe.

[El Chupacabra]

I've met a whole bunch of mags, but I have a hard time matching up real names with screen names. I made it to one of the Mammoth mini's awhile back, and several Gordy camps (those were fun!), and IIRC there were some of you on the Best Groupon Ever -- that cat ski offer from Big Red Cats many years ago.

[Buzzworthy]

I vaguely remember vomit in a shoe but I had no recollection it was yours. Of course it’s been a while.

Memories from that day/night are certainly difficult.

Let me guess, nice guy IRL? lol

Feel like the summits are kind of gone, for better or worse. Rob Story's fault??

The BBI franchise got them going again pretty strongly for a while, and they still occur. Minis, Europe BBI, etc. Rob Story can't kill us.

[snapt]

Only summit I made was the Donner Ski Ranch early June powder day in 2011? Splat was as advertised. Met and skied and fished with a fair few folks. Scored housing etc from folks here.

[BobMc]

Where's Happytimefunbox aka thefujitive these days?

I was sitting in Discount Tire two days ago getting my snows taken off. In walked Fugee to get a leak fixed. Hadn’t seen much of him lately, he’d kinda dropped off the face of the earth. He’s doing well, keeping life’s affairs in order.

[whyturn]

Mostly minis with 2-3 mags and ski. But biggest was with telefreewasatch. Went to his house for big past dinner and learned a lot about the cottonwoods and fun stories. Great to catch up with a bunch of mags and stellar night.

Seems like most folks just read the Padded Room and their one regional thread. Too stovepiped, IMO, and they miss a lot of cool events and discussions.

[Buster Highmen]

EuroBBI2024 is gestating, stay tuned.

Mid March, mtlodge_sedrun as the hub with forays East and West being researched.

[cat in january]

^^^^^Yeah!! Don’t know if I can get back, but stoked to hear the development

[Ski220]

The only summit that I have attended
was at Jackson.
Got to meet and ski with a lot of local
and visiting mags.
Thanks for organizing and hosting at
the waxroom DJ.
Good times were had both on and off
the mountain.



The only other times that I’ve skied with
other mags were at Snowbird when I
met up with SuPu and some of his pals.
One of the most fun days ever skiing
the ‘bird. And Harry and Bunion on a
10 inch powder day on wanker Wednesday
at the Big rock pile. Was too powder crazed
for a hut tour.

I'm really going to try and make it happen next year.

You're near Burlington now, right? See ya next week

[singlecross]

Singlecross, come back!!

I’m working to fill up the ski travel fund as we speak. Planning a 5-6 week Mountain Collective loop with the truck camper next Feb-March. A few days in Jackson is top of the list... Ski you and other Mags then, DJ!

[Whiteroom_Guardian]

I have a bunch of photos (and video!!) from CO Abasin Mini 2006.

If anyone has a deck that works with MiniDV tapes and connects to a computer I would love to borrow it.

[singlecross]

Many EC Ullr-fests. Sadly that has played out but singlecross' summer minis are gaining traction.

Just over a month out… Aug 4-6. will update when customer boats are all launched.

[phatty]

Lot 4 at Alpental is a mini pretty much every weekend. Got out with a few new mags last year and it was awesome. Hoping we can get an honest to goodness BBI going for next year. The last one was... eventful.

[stuckathuntermtn]

Meeeeeeeeeee
2 of them.
Hi, Harry!
