Whoa, that is the earliest I remember ABasin closing.

It is up to you guys to placate Ullr on Saturday for whatever it is we did wrong this season. Crying or Very sad


But A-Basin has started to close early - they gave up on the July 4th thing ...

But a picture is worth a 1000 words:

Probably not even worth a RMNP lift ticket either

That's just sad

You picked the right year for that knee surgery. Now get it in shape for next winter. If we have another lousy winter and you aren't skiing, I'm blaming you. Wink

When the other half controls itself, I will not light another one.

Always a great time.

It was definitely mellower than previous years, and the snow situation was pretty dismal...I was shocked by how little snow there was compared to when I skied Abasin over the 4th of July last year.

With that said, the corn was super fun, the party was rockin, lots of Beastie Boys blasting from speakers, tons of dogs. No one fell into the creek, and Jay was still standing when I left. Smile

I was not a huge fan of the 8pm hangover though. Smile
