I'll make another attempt, let's see what happens....... Getting the size down to 640 x 480 did the trick. Hey, cool! Merry Christmas and happy new powder!

Here's some pics of my tree; and photos for testing of my meager image attachment abilities. Let's see if I've got them sized just right..... They don't show up in the preview, I'll just hit *submit* and let the moderators pick up the pieces...they're all JPEGS less than 110k, 600 x 800 or less...

>>>At least you were able get past the horrible winery (theres two- one ok, the other truly... ummm, wretched) at the interstate exit in Palisade to get to one of the better ones, on your trip back to the Beehive (oops, I mean "behave") state. >>>which of the 2 at that exit do you find...

Well, that's a damn fine bit of markeing gimmickry, to get you guys to drive 7+ hours across the stinkin' desert for those wretched conditions. Sounds counter-productive for the marketing guys, are you more inclined (or less) to want to visit Keystone again? I'm not too sorry I missed out on...

I guess Silverton gets more than enough college students from Durango willing to bust trail for $39, they don't need to offer more. I've skied in NM and AZ on some bare-bones terrain,where the mountain really should not have been open... oooh, maybe it WASN"T! but that's what rock skis are for...

Yep, sounds like signing up to be bootpackin' mule is the better option than paying for a lift-ticket. I can't quite imagine how much an entire day of Packin' would git ya soaked and stinkin' and tired to the bone. here's the info-- Bootpacking Dates: Dec 1,2 & 8,9- Earn free skiing and enjoy...

Hmmm, with six guys your best deal is gonna be a condo on the mountain. Although I think the variety of nitelife is wider in town, Ski time Square has the Tugboat saloon and some nice restaraunts, none notable enuf to mention. The bus from town to the ski hill is convenient (or vice versa, to...

Well I am surprised that no one has been talking up Chuck-a-Rama! My image of post-ski Utah dining has been permenantly stained by letting our Greyhound charter bus driver stop there after skiing LCC on our college trips, before those 18-hour all-night rides south to Arizona. Geez that was...

Yeah, Chris C. is right-- I was just Cranky! And, I have a short attention span and selective memory that puts those semi-epic early season days front-and-center. But what I really really don't like is when there's an epic storm brewing, and the weatherman judges the upcoming weather to be...

Ummm, I didn't have much of anything when I moved to CO, my final unbroken pair of Volants and some beat-up college furniture. But yes, I did have one of those giant yellow Ryders --took the long way around, over Lizard Head Pass. I've since had all my techno-goodies imported on...

Based on my experience, the place for top-notch lessons is at Snowmass (or, for kids, Buttermilk) Snowmass has massively upgraded their ski-school infrastructure this year, also. Iv'e been skiing for 40+ years, and when I got the opportunity a few years ago to take a lesson at Snowmass, I was...

Thanx for the update-- I'm heading over to Utah on Friday, a couple of weeks ago I was planning on (dreaming on...) spending that day skiing in awesome fresh powder at Alta, but now....stopping off for a desert trail run or mtn bike ride near Moab on they way over, looks tempting instead. I'm...

>>>Do you have a favorite Colorado late season ski place since you live in central location to get to many of them? Sittin' here a week before my first '07/'08 ski day, thinkin' about how it's all gonna end is is tough. Especially this year, as I've got the first three weeks of April already...

A few incindiary comments Re: Taos vs Snowboards. 1A) I really don't want to spend too much time on this site thrashing on snowboarders (just a little), but I think that we should be allowed to keep a couple of places where the ski experience remains. I remember how the quality of snow changed...

Those are some long SLC restaraunt lists to totally forget about the RED Iguana for mexican food, between downtown and the SLC airport. It's the best mexican I've had north of the border (the Arizona/Utah border). The absolute Worst. Meal. Ever. in my experience was at Samba Grill in Gateway...

I've skied Snomass a weekend or two every April for the last 12, I think it's a great place for late-season. Way Way better than someplace like Steamboat that time of year, which faces too much to the west and is lower elevation. Most of the feedback so far is on-target. Here's how it skis on...

Last season I got some Rossi Bandit X former DH skis at the local ski swap for $75, and put my tele bindings on them. They are very nice, I found out afterwards that they are one of the skis commonly converted for tele. I havent' completely switched to free-heelin' it, my ski ability lags way...

Hey lookn4, and others, Here's some Colorado pass info, it's definitely a good idea to visit CO in the fall, to pick up on some of the "local's" deals. The Colorado Pass is Vail Resort's discount program, they are sold at CO Ski and Golf, and some other front range locations in the fall...

Here's my belated Vail Report-- Tony, sorry you weren't there a couple days earlier, the skiing was.... very interesting........ I skiied at Vail on Friday, Mar 30, (sorry for no earlier post than this one) the report was 29" new in the past 7 days (on top of unreported frozen corn, evident on...

Saturday I spent the day at Powderhorn, and took advantage of the demo day test skis of K2 and Salomon. Right now I've got Salomon Pilot 10's, about 4 years old, those replaced my old original yellow X-screams, which were my first shaped ski, and the last time I'd demoe'd anything. What! I have...
