Pub Club Colorado 1/12 - 1/13

[Dechristo]

I'm planning on being in Winter Park the evenings of Friday (1/12) and Saturday (1/13). If any others who frequent this site plan to be in the area, PM me. We can have a beer or three.

Well shoot Holmes, you know I'd cuddle up with you, but being as how I grew up in California, I'd drive a thousand miles to avoid Colorado. Good luck there.

When I was in Co my big fun was at the bar in Abasin, or there were some good parties at other skiers rigs just at the base of the lifts.

yeah, I remember the bumper stickers from the mid-seventies:

 

DON'T CALIFORNICATE COLORADO

I remember skiing Winter Park/MJ one day in the late 80's. We drank some tea on the drive up from the front range in a growing snowstorm, by the time we got there the passes had closed behind us and we were ripped. 3' fresh from the night before and the storming that day; patrol opened a few lines in front of us (hole in the wall, etc.) for the first time that year. Epic, epic day.

 

Culminated in a pub club style session at the bar at the "Vintage". The four of us eased down for a few hours with multiple + beers and food. When the waitress (the girlfriend of one of the group) brought the check for the damage, it was $11.32 total. It was a happy day all around.

 

Even if it's just you, raise a glass to the good life! Colorado living is awesome.

 

Cheers!
