Local: The White Ribbon of Death
0If you’re in the Colorado area, you’ve undoubtedly been told in many ways, that the season has started. A-basin, Loveland, and Keystone are in full swing, although the number of runs open is of course small. Each year, we all flock to the mecha of our choice to begin the season anew. Today I ventured out to Keystone with Chris. Keystone had their official opening day yesterday, so as you would expect, runs are very limited, and attendance was good today. One soon finds out quickly, why we dub the pre-season “The White Ribbon of Death.” Keystone did a good job of creating a very long “white ribbon of death” this year, but none the less it was packed, and a bit crazy.
Local: Season is upon us!!
0Here in Colorado, we’re starting to see the temperatures drop dramatically, and the white dusting of the mountains. The signal, the season is upon us, shoots up much like the bat signal. You can feel the excitement ramping up, especially with the opening of A-Basin and Loveland this past week, and Wolf Creek opened with three feet of powder. I’m hoping we have a pretty epic snowfall this season, and from the start of the season, it’s looking promising for sure. Stay tuned, it’s going to be a great season!
Thoughts: Premier Season
0So this is the time of year, when we all get giddy, and start to ramp up excitement for the upcoming season. I’m not sure about how you do this, but here in Colorado we get together and hit up the movie premiers to start building up that feeling again after a summer break. This year has a slew of awesome flicks in the lineup, and I can’t wait to check them out. Everything from Capita’s “Defenders of Awesome” to the Travis Rice file “Art of Flight,” it’s sure to be a great season. Check out the lists below and see if there are local premiers in your area. Anything specific you’re looking forward to seeing?
