Day 1

Went to A-Basin today. Did laps on the 2 trails that they had open until about 2 then packed it in and headed over Breckenridge to see how the mountain was looking. A couple of observations so far. 1. I should have worked out my legs a bit more before heading up here. I'm a bit sore this evening. 2. There is quite a bit of snow on the upper slopes of Keystone and Breckenridge. 3. The pine beetles are winning. If I had to guess I would say about 35-45% of the native pines around here are dying or dead because of the beetles, kinda sucks. It feels great to get back on my board and fling myself wrecklessly down the white ribbon of death.
