I hit up Afton today, first time out in like 3 years, miss it.
15 bux, went for like 4 hrs.
Still only like 9 runs open, but what the hell.

i just got back from Afton. The snow sucks really bad. There is only a couple inches and after that its nothing but ice. Even the bunny hill hurts really bad when you fall, which scares the new boarders. I dont think it was worth the $16 I paid. I'll wait until the REAL snow starts to fall...or atleast until they groom the runs. Oh well...I got the feel back.

i went to hyland when it first opened last year and it was horribly funny... slushy during the day, and if you went on the catwalk at night... you were destined to scratch up ur board from the ice and rocks... and then most likely biff it and eat the stones...

Ya, i think im gonna stick to the AM runs this year, I used to allways hit afton at night, neat under the lights and all, but the ice sux.
Kinda nice having the place pretty empty in the morning.
Deff need some real snow, but beggers cant be choosers.

I went to White Wolf afterwards and bought a set of Oakley Goggles as I lost my old ones.

I need to try going in the morning. I heard it was the best time to go. At night does suck a little, especially if you dont have goggles like me. My eyes get all teary and I cant see crap, so I slow down..haha.

I'm up for the DSMstyle Ski trip!

I will probly need to go once or twice before i hit up Squaw Valley and Heavenly in Lake Tahoe. Can't wait to go though, they almost always have DEEP powder. Gotta love mountain skiing...

I cant wait to go to Spirit Mountain, I heard that place is really good, because they're runs are way longer than Afton's.

hmmm same ol same ol hyland thats for sure. it was ok not the best... but for early season it was decent. they have some stuff set up in the park too.. two boxes a small SMALL rail, the mail box, a huge jump, a lil kicker, a rainbow rail, and a rainbow box. it was super crowded though. best thing of all is going with a hot snow chick.
