Stormy day at Solitude
On the lift. The boys are on the next chair.
I headed up to Solitude for a half day of riding with Triznut and The Tobin James. The conditions were better than expected when we started to ride, but as the day progressed a storm blew in. Next thing we knew we were riding up the chair lift, surrounded by thunder and lighting and were told that the mountain was closing down. It was dumping snow, so we slowly made our way down from the summit, enjoying all the fresh lines. By the time we made our way to the bottom the lifts had re-opened for one last run. W00T! We took it, smiling all the way down. We finished out the great day with a classic Garlic Burger and beer at the Cotton Bottom.

All three of us freezing but happy!

Wow, I regret having to miss this day - I am glad to see the tradition of après-ski beer and garlic burgers is still alive. The next time we slide on snow we should hit up the legendary cotton bottom.
