Opening morning, I'm in the lineup 15 mins before t-time, probably the longest line I'll wait in all year. I'm thankful and grateful to many people along the way that helped me to get here to enjoy what is still a paradise. Me and my wife worked very hard and sacrificed much to return, but it's still a privilege to be here. 5 1/2 months of sliding, clean air, quiet, mountains and hopefully powder days to look forward too.
Lady wearing what is colloquially known as a "fartbag",it's a one piece suit. This one particularly out there w the fringe and Native American feathers. Others are reflective silver and gold that shout "look at meeeeeeeee." Folks that wear those getups typically can't ski a lick.
Snowmaking on mid-river, currently closed.
Here's a look at 42nd Street where 2 runs and a cat track meet. Usually I'll ski the line to the skier's left of the yellow wrapped snow gun. We're going to need 10 really cold days for that to fill in w man made snow.
And the prize of the day - a free cup w hot chocolate.

Did you see them on the hill later? How were their skills?

Oh, based on her skis and outfit she's prob a good intermediate on groomed runs only w lots of lessons in her past. I ski on the very edge of the runs and I don't make wide turns in these confined spaces for safety so I don't see many people.
