The Dark Days of December

Posted by Mark on Dec 06 2009 | Uncategorized

Wow  - the days sure are getting shorter! Every day it’s colder, darker and feels a little bit more like off season. We’re still in a full on drought, but our latest weather reoprt;

“A MAJOR WINTER STORM WILL IMPACT THE REGION MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED FOR THE SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL

MOUNTAINS”

Well……

It seems positive to say the least. Rode A Rockstacker to Jackson’s loop yesterday and didn’t see a single

person! Even on a Saturday. granted the high was like 35F or so.. but the trail was dry, the skies we’re … kinda blue and the skiing pretty much everywhere STILL sucks.

That should(hopefully) change soon, but all those signs point to the depths of off season.
Western Spirit has sold it’s entire rental fleet, the guides are all off at the ski areas and those left are thinking of Holiday X-mas parties or soon to be deep dayz @ ALTA.
Well it’s time to stick another log on the fire & refresh my cocktail, so until next time keep those wool knickers close by and the skis waxed.
And since it was Der Kaiser’s b-day a few days back… Have a braut or three for the Holidays
