Beastieboy..sorry, I forgot your handle here. Escapade has long been one of my favorite runs (and most overlooked runs) at K-Ton. I'd be interested in seeing how she did (I'll assume Jordan/ paul blasted it). Hey Green Trails, I count jeff (and Andrew H) as the elder statesmen of the next generation as well. It's great seeing you, the boys and the girl all skiing as a family-some with red coats and some not.
Epic--sorry, I did not mean to be irresponsibly offensive there-I'll delete the comment.
Byron, that's what i'm talking about--you know no other sports really enable this...I won't be playing a serious game of basketball against my teenage grandson some day (assuming I live that long), but I know we'll ski together. The ability and desire to really share at a trans-generational level the joy of this sport--and that it is something equally accessible to children, adults and older adults alike (concurrently) really sits at the heart of why we are all so passionate about this recreational pastime. And why we get in a dander of technique, and a lather when defending our favorite trails, ski areas or pair of skis.
But, looking at the gang of pre-adolescents, tweeners and teens who haunt the patrol lodge and roam the slopes in varying packs, I got a good feeling this passion will survive in the hands of folks who have learned the best of the sport inside and out (from the technique to the adventure to the larger community that surrounds it).
