First and foremost...
Congratulations to the NFL
Champion Pittsburgh Steelers!
Our man The Shust, with the help of
his local bank secured a couple of
medallions that allow skiing at any
Summit County ski area for Mean Gene and I.
Since it was such a nice day we decided on
Arapahoe Basin because of their
latest expansion that opened
last year. Montezuma Bowl increased
the size of the Basin considerably.
Its a big wide open, nearly treeless
southern exposed bowl, much like Vails
back bowls, or Copper Bowl @ Copper.
It was lil' sunbaked and coverage a bit thin.
I nailed quite a few lil' granite beauties,
hence the title of todays post.
Tremendous view facing southwest.(8 panel panorama)
An unknown skier leaps onto Pali face.
The Shust (front) and the Yeti Slayer (behind).
The new Zuma quad and beyond.
Weird momentary stance.
A second panorama with Keystone and Breckenridge in the distance.
Shuuuusssst.
Buffalo Mountain.
Jeen.
Tearin' it up.
Some pretty nice steeps, bumps, and chutes, and rocks too.
Goin back to Pali, Pali, Pali, I don't think so.
Headed to the Alleys.
Heeeerres Geneeee.
A shot of Breckenridges windy Imperial Peak at sundown.
Big thanks again to the Shust for
making today happen, and check out
the Legend some afternoon!
6Wulf!
