Ski Day #3

I had what I consider to be an ideal ski day.

The drive up was easy and smooth. I had nobody in front of me and nobody behind me all the up the mountain. A slow driver in front of you is annoying.

I got up to the mountain at 8:50 and took about a half an hour to get myself dressed, boots on and up to the lift. The weather was clear and sunny, high above the fog I left in Spokane

The first couple of runs were kind of tough. The snow was hard, like a 70 year old Prostitute on Saturday night. About half way down the Northwest Passage Run, the snow started to soften up.

I found a good run off of chair three that I skied several times.

I ended up with 11 runs for the day. I was going to stop at ten but that last run was so good I decided to go for one more.

That gets my total runs for the year up to 24 which means I am at $16.67 per run. It's starting to get affordable.

I went up the chair with a woman named R.D. At first, it sounded like Arty but we got it nailed down. She was from California and had skied at Mammoth for $267.00 for a day pass.

That leads me to believe that Californians are stupid. They have much more money than sense.

I am a bit frustrated with the Mt Spokane's Web Site at the moment. While skiing today, I made a conscience effort to pose myself in front of a couple of the cameras and note the time. That way, I could go to the web site upon my return home and see myself on the webcams.

Unfortunately, all the webcams are currently off line. Perhaps my wonderful posing was too much for them and knocked the damn thing off the Interwebs.

So for now, I just have the pictures I took with my cell phone.
