Minor repair required on The Powder Wagon as the fan clutch went out about 10 miles west of Bozeman. Coasted into town at 50 mph. Repaired by 11:00 a.m., on the slopes by 1:00 p.m.
1) Brett's life for the past 3.5 years. He will graduate from Montana State in May 2010 with a BS Degree in Civil Engineering, Go figure!
2) Bridger Bowl in background. Skied 4 runs on the new Schlashman's Lift which goes to the top of the Bridger Range. You literally look down the western side when you boot back 100 steps up after getting off the lift. No easy way down! Avalanche beacon, probe & shovel required for all skiers on this lift.
Finished the day skiing the old side of the mountain.
3) Day ended with a pizza dinner with six college friends. Conversation: The Fall of the US Empire; Extreme Sports; Deep Survival - Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why; Skiing Powder; and Beer. Good stuff.
Does the helmet ever come off?
ReplyDeleteBruce, I am so enjoying this! You are having quite a time. And it looks like Brett is too.
ReplyDeleteHow are the ol' bones holding up? Tired? Nah, not you...
Love,

A ski bum since the mid 60's. You've come a long way since skiing at Blue Knob with Dad!
