[CalmerThanYou]

cat riding is the SHIT.

[chairmenmeow47]

whistler owns. i want to go back. i went in 2006 and they had the best snow they'd had in 100 years. so beautiful. also the best four seasons i've ever stayed at. man, i wish my girl still worked there...

[Young blood]

cat riding is the SHIT.

its free!


The best part about sking/riding in colorado is that its an hour from denver to most resorts, and there are always open couches to crash on for the weekend at the resorts themselves.

[CalmerThanYou]

whistler IS the best place in the world, its SOOOO expensive though.

We stayed at the westin there, it was amazing.

The new peak to peak gondola is being done this dec, at one points its a MILE off the ground.

There is a ton of weed in Whistler last time I was there it seemed like every other person was smoking a joint.

[CalmerThanYou]

thats because every other person was smoking weed.

st. moritz is still the best mountain i've boarded, but whistler is a close second.

some of the lifts in whistler freaked me out. i went to the top by myself since my girl isn't very experienced at boarding. man, it was snowing HARD. i had to stop just before the top since i couldn't see anymore. they didn't have the edges of the mountain very well called out either. i thought i was going to fall off. it was badass though. the nintendo terrain park seemed dope, but i'm too afraid to try jumps or anything, i'm not quite there yet.

and i wish one of those weed smokers would have found me when i went, boo

the only thing that sucks about whistler is the road up. there was an accident when we went. we were stuck for like 5 hours on that road up. we had flown into seattle and rented a car to drive straight up, so we didn't have any food or anything like that. thank GOD i walked not too far and found a little general store. these british sounding people kept asking for beer and then they were like "do you have any sort of alcohol at all" and they sounded so sad when the grocer said no, lol. i also had a really nasty sinus infection and had fever nightmares in the car while we waited. and i had no video on my laptop, so we were bored to tears.

the lift:



the nintendo terrain park:



the horrible road up:

[Young blood]

2 lanes of pure hell

soon to be 4 with the olympics that are gonna be there. here are a couple shots from my trip:

[EcraJ]

I'm moving to Telluride sometime in late Dec. and currently "home schooling" I could not imagine a sweeter existence. The house is right off one of the ski runs.

[chairmenmeow47]

OMG I WANT TO GO RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!







i accidentally went down a "home run" by myself in whistler thinking it would take me to the bottom. instead i just stopped in this condo area on some pavement and had to walk an hour down the mountain by myself with no idea where i was. it's funny, cause i remember my friend ryan called me that i hadn't talked to in a long time and i was like "I'M LOST IN THE WOODS IN CANADA!" lol

and they have some pretty hopping clubs for a mountain town. we went to this place tommy africa's that was pretty cool. i had inquired with a candian friend about EDM, and we had OPTIONS! unfortunately we slept through the drum and bass night we were going to go to, but still, there was more going on there during the week than there is here in arizona on a weekend, lol. i guess all those people can afford to go out cause man, is that place pricey. i remember that anything that would be under $5 here was almost $10 there. nothing was under $5.

[CalmerThanYou]

some REALLLLLLLLLLY fun clubs.

A couple nights that shit was going off like the sahara...no skidding.

People crowd surfing, etc...it was amazing.

That will be rough.

The one things thats great about telluride is its a destination resort pretty much all locals and open runs with no lines.

I've never been. :-(

[algunz]

OMG, I can not wait!!!!

[CalmerThanYou]

[algunz]

Yes, we stayed at Tamarack -the cross country skiing lodge near Twin Lakes.

[CalmerThanYou]

i hope you werent cross country skiing, LOADS of work with little to no visible reward...

[algunz]

We thought about it, but the snow was too good. This is how we got to town every day.
