When NOAA states that there is a "Lake Effect snow warning" this can be loosely translated as " skip work and go ski. " to day was a little different because I PAID to ski. Generally speaking the "pay to play" market, for fun should be completely subverted by the " liberate fun " ethic, poaching can be such great pleasure. Granted this is an ethic that could lead to death.
As the Lake effect fell, I paid to ski for the first time. Rode a ski lift for the first time. Got knocked off the ski lift for the first time....and got schooled by an 84 year old woman in alpine skis. I only wish i had had a sticker to give her. her partner was in her 60s and also was out having a ton of fun, and skiing lines that i was afraid to hit. Nan, if you read this- contact me and i will mail you a sticker.
I free healed it down with the Nordic BC/ cross country downhill set up. Army surplus Karhus, Soloman Raid Bindings and The Greenlands. I learned the shortcomings of my Telemark technique, and ate shit a number of times.
