Tim has just finished off the final 2 clips for the 2005/06 northern winter. Here are some low quality versions (these are 8meg – the full quality is 800meg – should look good on a 42″ LCD,  they actually come out as movie quality). Little Jimmy’s Compilation Tom’s Compilation Remember – right click and then save target as.  They are in MOV format (some crappy … Continue reading Final footage for 2005/06

As well as a tonne of people arriving over the next couple of days – there is another big storm coming through. In the next 48hrs we expect a minimum of a foot of snow.  I’ve had a couple of boring days doing some end of month/year paperwork and I’m pretty pumped about some pow.  Spent the afternoon doing a little tuning (see pic below … Continue reading Another Storm on the way

Over the last couple of days I’ve heard about this Colorado storm from people in other countries (Spain,  Aussie,  NZ and the UK).  It is true there was a bit of snow but it did come the wrong way for most storms and we didn’t get as much as Denver itself.

These guys just had a week of race training in Steam Boat – … Continue reading Al & Jarisse – post race training.

Normally we get a couple of these a year here. He wasn’t a snowboarder and that being the case I am no longer a suspect…. KEYSTONE, Colo. – Dec. 11, 2006 – A 20-year-old male from Oregon was pronounced dead at St. Anthony’s Hospital last night after a ski incident on an intermediate trail, Spring Dipper, at Keystone Resort. A call came into Keystone Ski … Continue reading 1st Fatality of the Season

I don’t know about you but I hate Monday’s. All the weekend warriors have gone home,  there is no traffic,  no lift lines (not that we get those even on the weekends),  no people over the hill and Josie doesn’t start work until 2pm so she can come skiing too. Started the day with a lazy wake up,  bacon and eggs and then we cruised … Continue reading Why I hate Monday’s
