ania Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 On my 27th birthday last year, I skiied 27,000 vertical feet at Stevens Pass. This year, on my 28th, I'd like to ski 28,000 and it'd be fun to have a partner. That'd be lift skiing, mostly black diamond runs or through the trees, starting when the lifts open and stopping after 28,000 vertical feet. Last year, that was about 6 hours of skiing. I don't do crazy stuff like jumping cliffs, but otherwise I don't think there's a run at Stevens that I can't ski. It'd be most fun if you skiied at a similar level. And you can't make fun of my lipstick matching my skis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave_Schuldt Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 There's not much snow up there now, youu may get bored fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ania Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 I'd like to keep it up as long as I have birthdays. But apparently, forces of nature (like lack of snow) can force me to reevaluate the challenge. So the newly modified version is that for my n'th birthday, I will lift ski n-thousand feet, or backcountry ski n-hundred meters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
