18 & 4.0: The Christening

Welcome Back!

The Afternoon Ski Club's 4th

season got underway today,

this the 14th day of October

in the year of our lord 2009.

This may be my earliest start

yet,... season 18 for me.

Hooray, Happy, Joy!

Off to get our season ski passes. This season

at A-Basin w/ some Breck/Keystone days too.

"More cowbell!"

Best pass picture yet...

The lone "Exhibition Lift" accessing a

single run, and a lil' terrain park

AAAAYYY!!! Captain Vagabond/Mean Gene

gives this official thumbs up to begin the year.

Slightly thin on the coverage.

Our visits may be limited until the amount

of available terrain expands a bit. But I encourage

all to come back and visit occasionally to see

what we've been up to.

The Bulgarian Connection

Well , we're not done yet I guess,

and thankfully so because an awesome

day was had at A-Basin this cloudless and

warm afternoon thanks to the K Man.

The K man could'nt make it however

due to a bout with the brown bottle flu. 

Ethan aka "Swank" delivered the medallion that

 gave me free ski powers here at the Basin. 

We were joined by Ina who originates from Bulgaria 

but is American too. Sweet. 

Swank, Ina, n Me.

Mash Tater Mounds...Got Gravy?

Swank on "The Nose"

Soupy Pali.

Whooped remains after a run on Pali.

I'm not sure we're done 

so won'tcha please come on back again.

Thanks,

Jake's Ski Team

Some friends from

Jakes Dive Bar in Breckenridge

met me just after 12 noon for some

end of season turns at Loveland.

Josh,Ethan, Krowman and I all agreed

that the first couple of runs kinda blew,

but we managed to salvage it into 

a decent day, as long as the sun

stayed out, Disaster was nearly

averted as Krowman had an incident

involving a chairlift, all is well now.

Ethan, Krowman, Josh from left

...Yeah, pepperoni and sausage, top of Chair one.

Super rad adjustable titanium fresh!

Black sky above the Ridge.

Every car should have one.

We might not be done yet either.

Thundersnow!

I guess thunder doesn't only

happen when it's raining as our

weekend storm brought us, as a local

forcaster called it..."Thundersnow"...

And a boatload of it too...nearly 3 feet

in 3 days at Loveland. So B.O.B., M.G., and

Me came to enjoy the remains on a glorious

sunny Monday afternoon, Day 40! I reached

my seasons goal...HOORAY ME!

The good Captain and B.O.B.(pre-crash)

Chair 3 Base in it's sunny glory.

Some cruddy crunchy choppy stuff we encountered early on.

Fresh tracks over yonder way.

This may or may not be this seasons

last post, but I think we may be back a time or

two yet before it wraps up, so look on back soon.
