went right to rumor, the wind was blowing so hard there was no snow on the freshly groomed headwall but once you got down a ways it was really nice knee deep pow, hawkeye was the same, as was lies,chatimac sucked, on my next run down hawkeye i was skiing the edges, still un touched, got almost to the bottom, tried to get back into the trail ,my down hill ski kept going downhill while my other ski started going back up the hill, dropped me like a pile of well whatever, instant pain, had to brought of the hill via toboggen. just got back from the docs[hospital yesterday] he said no major tears maybe maniscus but probabley just a bad bad sprain. so what started to be a good day ended in crap for me, ill be down for awhile, so every one have fun and please make a few turns fer ole jimmer, just a side note the two patrolers who brought me off the hill were awsome, with all the snow it was extremaly difficult . bret gold and jammie, dont know his last name, skiies tele were awsome .thanks boys

Jimmer, I know how much that can hurt. Sorry to hear you'll be off the hill for awhile. We will all miss your posts very much. I guess you will be fishing some then? Friends lake must be near froze by now. Rest up that knee and we'll
see you on the slopes again real soon.

Yes indeed I was . . . wearing blue, my girlfriend was in white. That first run up there was rough, huh?

that was our group of regulars. If you went in where we went and not farther back on upper chatty, it wasn't to bad. Some other tele skiers said that father back was littered with downed trees.The only thing was that there really wasnt to much of a base under it, but atleast there weren't trees down all over it to snag you.
