I saw a ton of photos on facebook today from my non-pug friends! Must have been so fun. I couldn't make it dammit and I'm sad.
Today was a ton of fun. We ended up going bell to bell after initially calling it around 1:45 and then deciding the final bell was in order and heading back up top.
Some clouds rolled in that maybe kept the afternoon stickiness at bay, but took away a bit of that pure sun soaked atmosphere. Reveal was a strange beast - a berm set up that never broke, and it slowed down snowboarders so much that one after the other dunked either right at the edge or on the other side. And a bunch of skiers surfing with knees apart hit the berm and then went OTB and blew up face first on the other side. Awesome.
First surf of the day by one of mine...
The berm and its chaos...
^^^beware wearing a lifeguard costume and getting called into duty.
Putting the rescue tube to better use.
And not rescuing yet another boarder causality.
I did three passes, my first ever, with no dunkings. I've never wanted to do it with boot heaters (and fear), but the approach was clean and fast so I said screw it and had no drama runs. There is word of pics and video, but not on my phone...
The expected midday lines suddenly appeared at 10:45...
