    Deer Valet 3/14/14

    I've been to DV a few times. I have to say it's more about luxuriant awesomeness, than the skiing for me. That being said, the first time I was there it had snowed a foot the day before, and the mountain skied beautifully. The last time I went, was February 28th this year, and it snowed 6 inches...

    The cottonwoods would be okay, but places like PCMR & Snowbasin would expect a lot of rain.

    Snowbird 3/3/14

    Snowbird was super solid today. Chalky up in the bowls on the gad side. Went over to mineral basin and got super lucky as they had just opened some terrain in the far skiers right: The lift line there was the longest of the day, about 3 minutes. We got unlucky on the gad 2 lift as they had a...

    Today was pretty nice up there. Great snow, great people, lots of fun. Thanks to all you Utah people for showing me such a great time. I only got one shot, from sugarloaf lift, but it was more fun to ski than to take photos.

    SLC this weekend

    So, I'm heading out thursday with my father to SLC. I have a few questions: 1. Does PC still do that thing where if you sign up on the chamber of commerce you get a free lift ticket the day you arrive? 2. We aren't renting a a 4 wheel drive car, but staying at the holiday inn express in...

    sweet, I remember reading that Deal's replacement was going to quit, but obviously she didn't, or maybe she did, and talent is a dime a dozen.

    FTO gets a facelift

    I gotta be honest, I'm not in love with the all black borders and black column on the left. I think there should be more delineation of sections. I think it could be cleaner, but then again I'm looking it at on Safari.

    Well there is a reason why many people think of that album as one of the all time greats. I just hate when I hear out of phase drums, and vocals that are so low in the mix... it's just a preference thing. At the time of its it certainly stood out.

    For sure, although I feel the production (steve albini) on surfer rosa ruined what should have been an all time great album. Who opened?

    Based on your response I have to assume that you didn't watch the video to the end. Perhaps you don't agree with the implied assumptions made at the end of the video and chose not to watch it. Heck, I get it... the climate has been in a state of flux since gravity formed the earth, so naturally...

    Interesting piece on Lintzen/climate change

    Oh...i've been on quite a few glaciers, and seen them calve from boats too. The horrifying element is the speed and acceleration at which those glaciers have receded over the last 10 years. When I hiked piz bernina in swizterland one of the fascinating elements was how far the glacier had...

    Yes. I agree fully. Check out this video though, it's pretty horrifying. http://www.npr.org/blogs/krulwich/2014/01/31/268356264/a-hunk-of-planet-dissolves-before-our-eyes

    Interesting piece on Lintzen/climate change

    Co2 isn't the only greenhouse gas being blamed for AGW. I think it's a rational assumption that 7 billion humans can collectively affect the global climate. Humans have been changing their surroundings (local environs) for thousands years. This is a young science, so I would imagine that the...
