Yes, I'm headed back up to the slopes tomorrow. Unlike last time, I'll be wearing a fully-fledged snowboarding helmet, which I'll need because I'll be strapped to a bona-fide snowboard that's both long and waxed. For those of you from Jamaica, long + waxed == quick.
Also on the upside, I'll be getting up on the slopes hella early—which I see as a bonus. It was awesome boarding with Rich and Manuel last time, but we didn't get home until like, 6ish. Tomorrow morning Rob (yet another Rob) will be leaving Redmond at like 7am, so we should get a ton of boarding in and will still get home by 3. Hot.
So, this should be fun.
Update: Here's a satellite photo with my routes from last time overlaid. I spent the vast majority of my time between pushpins 1 ("Top of the carpet") to 2 ("Bottom of the carpet") where "the carpet" is an uphill treadmill-like thing that works like a chair lift without the chair. Pushpins 3 through 10 detail my one attempt up the "Daisy" lift and the ensuing hilarity.
