While skiing at 7 springs this weekend, I witnessed, what I thought was a pretty stupid stunt. But as I was advised, I COULD have been a cool trick. So, Tim and I were skiing down Lost Girl Trail to check out the Turtle Neck Glades, they looked a bit dicey so we headed over to the Turtle Claw Glades. After skiing through Turtle Claw we headed around the last curve of Lost Girl. We looked to the left of the slope and we saw several pairs of skis lying next to this giant boulder. Curious we stopped. We looked up and at the top of this wooded hill we saw a couple of guys building a jump. The idea was for one of the guys to slide down the steepish hill, go off the jump, land on the snow covered boulder and then jomp unto the piste. Well, needless to say the jumper hit the boulder in an odd way, essentially landing on his bent arm. Tim and I skiied off to tell the ski patrol. Don't think that ended very well. Poor guy. Probobly out for the season.

Any other stories to share??!

Yeah that sounds pretty stupid for this area. It is definitely too crowded at 7-S to pull that off without risk to others.

I just got back from Summit County and am pleased to report that my wife made a great breakthrough in the bumps. At Beaver Creek we skied the Grouse Mountain area which has some fairly steep bump runs. She skied them very smoothly, if not fast, and actually had fun!! I was very proud

We also skied Copper & Vail. The more I ski Copper the more I like it.

Nothing stupid to report yet, but the season is young
