This is not me but believe it or not today was the day that I fulfilled a long time desire. This is what I looked like when I LAUNCHED off of a 10 foot cliff around 15 MPH and and traveled 20' airborne and landed in a patch of fluffy white snow with excitement writted all over my face. Tomorrow we will have a camera on hand, you can be sure of that...
This is my buddy Mike and I waiting for the shuttle to come pick us up from the airport.
To view our "BAD ASS" condo go here to OUR SWEET SUITE and scroll down to "The Chateaux At Silverlake" and click VIRTUAL TOUR icon. YOU GOTTA SEE THIS.
"KING MIKE" and I workin' on our boards and our "group" shot! Don't mind the date error!
Me puttin' this damn thing together. Mike's a wise ass!
Here it is 2 days into the trip and I am totally having the best time! We've gotten almost 6 feet of snowfall since Sunday and we are puttin' it to good use, believe me YOU! I am ready to pack my bagz and start a new life! IT IS "BETTER OUT HERE"! Mike was generous enough to invite me out here to enjoy the fantastic and fanatic fun out here. Appreciation is only a word that can NOWHERE near describe how grateful I am to be here. THANX MIKE it's been fun and we'll continue this fun, but that's a given!
DAY 3
OK, it is the 3rd day of fun and we thrashed it up HARD! We started off in the trees and ended up back at Scott's Peak for some more BIG AIR! And big tumbles too. The snow is still thick, fluffy, and heavy too. It is falling as I type this and I am excited to hit the slopes. We took a lot of video and I'll try to get them on when I get back. We moved into our NEW Condo and were expecting a smaller living quarters but as shocked as we were, it's awesome. Well, 'til tomorrow, have a Happy Easter Sunday.
THE HIKE to the peak!
THE VIEW from the summit.
THE FUN!
The last run of the day and we were DEEP into the trees and had no idea where we were gonna end up. But the important thing is the snow was the best yet!!!
This is our new condo that we came home to tonite. It is so nice here. I wanna stay....
DAY 4
Well, we just got off the slopes and we had a blast today. I don't have any pictures, well maybe 1 but it has to wait, IT IS QUITE A SURPRISE. It was another thing I always wanted to try and it was funny and quite a TRIP! We also have some great video footage of this event too and I will post that or pix from it when I get back. IT IS TOO FUNNY! However, Mike learned a valuable lesson in life this morning, IF YOU WAKE UP AT 3 IN THE MORNING THIRSTY, DON'T, DON'T, DON'T REACH FOR THE DAILY ENERGY DRINK!!! Well, that about sums it up, we will get back to you tomorrow. Later and Good Night.
Actually, I reviewed the pix and found this one of us on the gondola at "THE CANYONS" which is where we boarded today. When we get back I will post the surprise photo's.
DAY 5
Hello, Happy Easter to all of you and I am sorry I cannot be with those I love. We had an awesome day closing down the mountain with all of the locals. We boarded pretty easy but fulfilled our last day of the season.I am ready to go home to my beautiful girlfriend and Mike's darling wife. WE MISS THEM VERY MUCH......
We all Flail one time or another, hey, it's Easter Sunday, HALLELUJIA!!!
Well, boyz will be boyz! We built a kicker jump and played in the woods until the mtn. was closed and then we headed back and we were the only 2 on the mtn. except the worker who took our picture. It was nice to burn down the mtn. and not have to dodge any little rugrats!
As I said before, BOYZ WILL BE BOYZ.....

A view from a distance of our launchpad. We flew off the cornice into a bed of powder. The video is pretty cool.
2 Stoked guyz enjoying the last day!
We were fortunate enough to experience the local season closing party. We had fun, this is only half of the people at this awesome party.
Alrighty Then! Today was the last day to ride for all and we must return to FLA tomorrow night. I really want to move out here and enjoy life as we all should. So I will update this with all the final pix as soon as I return and plan for the next journey. 'Til then. Blue Skyz and Happy Trailz.
