His Blogness, getting it in Colorado.
It’s hard to get work done when there’s so much lovely snow to ski. But wait, this is our work. Snow is good!
Lap number two, or is it three, four?

Looks like a fine day out in the backyard! Send some of your excess up here 🙂
Yeah Dave, one of our top 3 or so winters in memory… I’m heading over to EU shortly so I’ll get punished for all my exuberance (smile). Lou
Ahhhhh man! That snow looks awesome!!!! <3
Thanks for the primo skin track today! Your hut is buried.
Julia, you should be here!
My euro-skewed skimo eye sees some wiggle turn tracks in the distance, how come !?!? I thought you all slay powder with those big fat GS turns in NA 😀
(sorry, couldn’t resist)
Some folks slay the wiggle!
George, that wasn’t our skin track, but it was ok. I would have made it a bit lower angled and not had super steep sections going to flat sections (grin). But I understand how testosterone influences the human brain, so I’ll shut up.
Or, perhaps add one thing. There was an amazingly terrific skinner up Alley before the last snowpocalypse, made by a certain individual who’s up there more than just about anyone and is crafting some mighty fine routes. Did you get to use that before the storm? Amazing.
Lou
drool. See you soon in Europe. Kinda dry. But snow’s in today at least. Still some goods if you know where to find em.
Just had 4 days in the Telluride BC last week and there was deep, creamy pow everywhere. Heading to France and storms on the way with 1 meter new snow forecast, so snow gods seem to be following me this winter! ??Where are you going In EU Lou, I’ll try to bring some to you ?
Eric, I’ll be in Austria and Dolomite, most days are travel days or ISPO, not a huge amount of ski days, I scheduled it that way since the skiing back home is so good, and thus a shorter compact trip was in order. Good to hear France will get some! Have a good trip. Lou
