    whoa that sounds pretty cool.

    Powder snow skiing is not fun. It’s life, fully lived, life lived in a blaze of reality. What we experience in powder is the original human self, which lies deeply inside each of us, still undamaged in spite of what our present culture tries to do to us. Once experienced, this kind of living is recognized as the only way to live–fully aware of the earth and the sky and the gods and you, the mortal, playing among them. Dolores LaChapelle

    Beer and beacon searches go together like mac and cheese.
    I don't like being outdoors Smithers, for one thing, there's too many fat children.

    Can do shithead!

    I only have gone through the whole beacon basin about 4 times already this season. Someone had to help bumpy set it up. Oh and teaching the beginners how to use beacons and not die last night can't help either.

    Edit: I'm probably naturally going to be disqualified by helping Bumpy run it. You showing up?

    If still available I will take you up on that offer. I just got my beacon and any extra practice with it before I take an avi class would be great.

    Done. Check the First Aid Room bulletin board when you make it up there.

    There hopefully be a couple of extra comps in there for anyone who shows up. Check the backside though to make sure it doesn't have someone's name on it.
