Wow last weekend was a wonderful weekend at Timberline. It was sunny and warm and i don't know why but we all ended up in our bikinis. Now typically I have found the lifts at timberline to be the worst part but I must say i now have a different feeling about them though I am not sure exactly. Ok to start out me and my friends made some silly dares and next thing there i was at the lift getting ready to plop down my all but bare cheeks onto a very cold lift. After the initial shock the numbness began to subside and I closed my eyes and thought about how nice the sun felt. I slowly became hypnotized by the gentle rhythmic humming of the lift. Feeling the sensations starting off subtle and then slowly as the seat would approach the next ensuing tower the volume and the intensity of vibrations would increase. Finally reaching their gentle crescendo and then doing the rhytmic dance all over again in reverse, until the sensation was almost entirely gone, at which time the mantra would start again. With the 10 to twenty towers each offering their gentle peaks it was a ride i will never forget. I was taken to the top of a beautiful mountain and touched by my surroundings in a very lovely way

very upLIFTing

I don't care if it was made up or real. In my world...IT HAPPENED, OK? Though the realist in me says you're a 50 year old overweight balding man with bad breath but I thank you for the visual nonetheless boarderbabe!

So were you the one in the light blue, the black with light blue or the black with yellow trim? Glad you were all decent snowboarders, a fall would have left some nasty roadrash. The weather was indeed very nice on Saturday. BTW, even if the original poster is 50 and overweight, the three girls and their buddies at T-line looked to be more in the 15 to 20 category. (due to the family nature of this site and possible underagedness of the ladies in question I'll refrain from posting any photos that may or may not exist)

well myrto I don't know about you, but my main objective sitting on a lift is getting up the hill as quickly as possible in order to go back down it as quickly as possible. My rhythmic bits are saved for the swing of my poles, the timing of my turns and with my honey après ski.

I had something else I wanted to say about skin, steel seats, slow lifts and frostbite but decided not to because I don't want Scott taking my nice stars away!

hmmm OK snow-cone like I see a little bit of anger but what-thehell- ok sorrry I missed U out here but really ... we ski here for real.... I have detected many pussy=holes on this - bosrd and I don't like it. Scott ... make it real.. U suck except for the above... call me if you are real .. or just write .. emosel@core.com

Awww... where are the bikini-clad chicks at Snowshoe hitting booters in the park. Oh, right... nonexistant.

I'm sure you made quite a few employees' day.

I'll have what she's having.

Boarderbade,

ROFL. Well you have the wrong forum. This belongs in the stupidest things thread. I am amazed anyone took the time to post this. The "So What Factor" for this thread is off the charts. Now if the OP had pics then that would be a different story.

Crush,

You are totally incoherant. Did you just try to drown yourself in 3% suds after hearing how off the hook our apres ski scene is back here?

Boarderbabe needs some stars for that one!

Wait -- it suddenly dawned on me -- is there a "mile high" club for skiing? I mean gondolas, trams... you know what i mean.

Wow....Um....no wonder the snow melted.... Anyone else seen someone earn stars that fast?

Kevin,
Uh, I've heard from some of my Ski mags that there indeed is! (if you believe them)

-Warren-

Boarderbabe,

You and your two friends rock. Good to see people having fun and enjoying themselves at Timberline. I enjoy fast lifts but if slow lifts are encouraging attractive women to wear bikinis, I might have to reconsider!

Unable to let go of suggesting improvements for Timberline I've got one more idea. How about free lift tickets for customers who wear bikinis.

Improvements in snowblowing vs. more bikinis -it's a toss up if you ask me.

Hey -- 5 stars to anyone who fesses up to a believable 'mile high' story!

(NOTE: children may be watching )

Nah! Crush .. not angry .. just amazed as how a racy description can instantly lower a normally intelligent male's IQ by 75 points. As for boarderbabe ... if she wants to spend her time having 'fun' on the lift rather than skiing that's all right by me. Just seems to me a terrible waste of lift space!

And .. sorry to miss you in UT last time we were out. Given the choice of cramming as much skiing as we could into the little time we had ... well, I'm sure you understand where the priorities were! Next year we will plan better. We can have my sister's condo pretty much whenever we want as long as we block the dates no later than Aug/Sept. So, Crush, when is the truly BEST time of the winter to be on the Wasatch so I can block the time for next year.

Hey at least she can ride from all accounts. At the 'Shoe over the weekend there were three ski bimbo's (and I use this in the sense that they were complete idiots) giggling and plowing their way through the park. Frickin gapers.

I'll bet she'd have drawn a lot of attention if she had been in the 'Single' line at the bottom of the lift.

Even more if her bikini would have stuck to the seat when she unloaded.

Well maybe I gave the wrong impression, but regardless it was one of the magic moments that only coould have happened on the mountain. An altogether spiritual, Zen like, soulful, or whatever u choose to call it experience that only can happen in spirit of downhill energy.

Snowcone.. there is something missing from your downhill experience I think.

To the rest please don't read too much into this...

it was just one of those moments

boarderbabe ... nothing missing in my estimation. I can zone out on the lift with the best of them, and do certainly go all gooey over 'nature' as observed from the lift flyby. I think the difference is that, at this point in my life, I prefer to reserve my more intimate moments for more intimate surroundings.

A friend once said to me that life is not measured but the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away. So ... if riding the lift in your bikini is what makes you happy and takes your breath away, then go for it. If I were some years younger who knows? .. I might just do the same thing.
