Default TR - Tremblant Apr 6-12 2007

What a ridiculous, ludicrous, laughable exercise in ego gratification from a
pathological liar, child molester, dickless freak, drunk, and thief, not to
mention convicted felon.

Fair is fair.
**** yourself, Walt. Enjoy.

Well, you win some and you lose some. My early season trips this year
were somewhat of a bust, but last week at Tremblant was clearly a home
run. When Tremblant is good, it is very very good.

55cm of new snow fell in the two days before we arrived and in the first
two days of the trip. Real winter the first couple of days (7 degrees F
in the morning) followed by spring skiing later in the week. You couldn't
ask for better conditions. Food was excellent, and late season condo
rates came in at $80/night for walk to the lifts / ski-in accommodations
(although I have to say that it wasn't until the last day that I found the
trail back to the condo, and the spring conditions made it a bit on the
rocky side).

This year's Phineas Fogg award for crazed ski trip travel goes to my
friend's nephew who joined us for the trip - he actually flew from Denver
to Detroit, and then drove with us to Tremblant. This makes some of my
crazed trips seem like a little jaunt to Trashmore after work. He's just
graduated college and has been skiing since he was a toddler, but only in
the west, nothing east of A Basin. So for his very first trip to the east
we wanted to show him what Eastern Firm (TM) was all about. Instead, he
was off in the trees finding powder stashes before we knew it. Bastid.

(We did get some good firm stuff late in the week in the AM after the
slush refroze, but no classic "see a fish through it" terrain.)

Great trip. Now the skis are off to the shop for some base repair (spring
== rocks) before being put away for the year, and you'll find me on the
lake. Elapsed time between skiing and sailing season: 3 days.
