TV goes on the wall

With Johnny Collins here we have the ‘skills’ to get the TV up on the wall.  Now the TV is pretty bloody huge and it weighs 50kgs so it involved a little more than just glue. It ended up taking us 3hrs but it looks AWESOME!!!! Tea time. Lifting the darn thing took a fair bit of effort – Tim is up in the little … Continue reading TV goes on the wall

Monday’s do suck

Monday here in Colorado,  all the weekend warriors have gone home and we have the place to ourselves again.  The boys hit up the park in the morning and Tim threw this 180 attempt – click here to download. After some lunch we drove the 5 minutes up the road to A-Basin to hit up some steeper terrain.  A-Basin is pretty high – from this … Continue reading Monday’s do suck

Erickson Bowl

Yesterday was a Saturday and after nearly 10″ of fresh snow on Friday there were a few people around – so to get out of the lift lines (which were a whole 5 minute wait) the crew thought it might be a good day to do some hiking. The hike from one of the outer day lodges took us just on 1hr and our highest … Continue reading Erickson Bowl

Couple of pow day pics

This was an epic day – being a Friday there was nobody around.  We had at least 10″ the night before and it was still dumping!!! For most people the only thing you could get run over by on a Friday is a bus or a train – we have to watch out for snowcats. Tim with only one ski…. AGAIN!!!!     Continue reading Couple of pow day pics

Little Jimmy and America’s Next Top Model

I was expecting to watch some Star Trek with Little Jimmy but I didn’t expect to catch him glued to America’s Next Top Model…. Even Nic seems a little weirded out by it mate. Continue reading Little Jimmy and America’s Next Top Model

Another Storm on the way

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

Yes the reports are true…

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. We only got 19″. Pali’s up at A-Basin opened during the last day of … Continue reading Yes the reports are true…

Meeting the neighbours

Over the last 3 weeks or so now we’ve met a few of the neighbours. Next door is Grandma Bloom – Jeremy Bloom’s Grandma (Jeremy Bloom is the new voice on the Warren Miller films – I think he is an Olympic Mogul skier). Tonight we had another neighbour drop by – we didn’t know if he was dangerous (I’ll ask Master Yoda tomorrow – … Continue reading Meeting the neighbours

Al & Jarisse – post race training.

This was a mid morning run on Saturday – few too many people around for my taste.  I’m more a mid week skier. Couple of movies of Al and Jarisse – this isn’t what we normally ski but we’ve had a freeze/thaw cycle the last couple of days so offpiste isn’t too pleasant. These guys just had a week of race training in Steam Boat – … Continue reading Al & Jarisse – post race training.
