Dropped Cheryl off at the Eagle-Vail Airport at 12:30 and was back on the slopes of Beaver Creek by 1:30. Ripped off 20,500 VF by closing time and headed back to Breckenridge for the evening.
Tuesday was a blue sky day at Breck with Steve and Monte. Snow conditions were packed powder in the bowls and groomers on the slopes.
1) Top of Birds of Prey downhill run at BC
2) Sign at top, great name, you must ski to the brink before you can see over the edge as the run drops off below your ski tips.
3) Breckenridge ski area, Peaks 7, 8,9,10 and Quandary (L-R)
4) Imperial Lift at the top of Peak 8, Summit Elev 12, 998’
5) Quandary Peak 14,265’
6) Buffalo Mountain as viewed from Breckenridge.
7) Steve and Monte are so well connected with the bar and restaurant owners in Summit County than we were able to have Pele accompany us for dinner on Fat Tuesday. Of course upon entry, I played the blind guy and Pele was my Seeing Eye Dog. By the time we left and after a few too many Margaritas, Pele was the Blind Dog and I was the Seeing Eye Guy.
Cheryl shows up for a few days, you drop her off at the airport, and an hour later you're back on the slopes? What a Ski Bum!
