We did this last year a few times. Well, fourtycal and company went regularly and the rest of us came a few times too. Anybody up for going on Wednesday the 31st? I have a couple 2 for 1 coupons from Arctic Circle.

We need to get it going on a regular basis. Fourty? Ride On? PunchKing? Anybody?

I think I am going to a wine tasting party that night, but Wed are a great night for skiing.... and I might be able to make it once or twice. How much is night skiing down yonder? And which resort?

I'm pretty sure Brighton is closed for nights on the 31st since it's new years eve. I'd probably be down to hit up a Wednesday night since I have a pass at Brighton.

I am in for some night boarding. If someone plans it I will come. I haven't been yet this year. Hopefully the snow keeps up.

I didn't realize that our M-Th passes were good for night! We always bail before 4, but now that I know, I may hit up some night runs if the snow is good!

We should hook up for some runs some time shaggy... I'm sure we are on the same mountain at the same time quite often. :2thumbs:

I'm in, I'll be there on the 7th. I work until 5 so will be there as soon as I can. I'm sure Ride-on will come with me if I twist his arm. Now for lunch at Artic circle :eek7:

I have two discount passes from Arctic Circle in my wallet. I might be able to make the 7th work. I hope to be recovered by then... :eek2:

I can come. I have an all day or twilight pass if someone wants to buy it for $40 and use it when they can get a full day out of it instead of half day. Save you $18.00!! I will sell it to you and then buy my night pass. If not guess I will be there at 12pm and see you all when you get there.

7th might work for me too. I work the night of the 6th so I'll sleep during the day. Night riding sounds perfect.

What time should we expect to meet at the bar? Molly Greens has some damn fine pizza and beer...

Heather and I will be there for first chair. We plan on spending the first few hours lapping Great Western. We will probably bolt around 1 or 2 for lunch down the canyon, then return for Bogley night.

PM me if you want my phone number, easiest way to msg me on the hill is via txt. I don't answer my phone, ever.

I am in. Kids are mad at me... told them maybe I would take them next time. They are good little skiers.

I am going to try and get out of work by 11 and head down want to get good use out of my pass. So guess I will meet you all up there somewhere??

We could meet the late comers in the dinner lodge at 6:00 PM. How about at the end of the hall near the restroom, where they usually have the ski conditions posted. Main floor of the eating area. This is where beech and I found Ride On after we lost him for a few runs. Maybe have some chow (not sure when they close) and then hit the slopes.
I am going to try to get there by 4-4:30 and I will PM you my number so maybe if you are with Joe and Heather we can get some runs in before the rest show up. :popcorn:

It was good hanging with everyone. Boy is blueeyes fast! :lol8: She likes to point 'em downhill and cruise. She is a very good skier and great company. I also skied with Joe and Heather for a few runs. Then we met up with fourtycal and Ride On and we all cut up the hills until 9.
The snow was excellent!!! The temperature was also really nice. I bought a new beanie with headphones sewn inside. I had the tunes going...what a great night! :party:

Gotta do it again soon. :nod:

Last night was a blast! Brighton has some excellent night skiing.

Snowflake Vortex ... I like the sound of that. I noticed I am a Bogley Goddess now, any chance of changing that to Snoflake Vortex... I don't feel like much of a goddess..... besides JP says I have to much testosterone. :lol8:

Thanks! I think I want to add a wide angle lens to the setup. I also want to buy one of these, and mount the camera on the nose of my board on a powder day:

Sweet. I've been thinking about something like that.

The only thing to watch out for is when the mount pops off when you're in 2' of powder, especially if you're flexing the board. :eek2: You'll want to have a safety strap going to your bindings.

I've thought of different "board level" mounts. I'm thinking if you strapped it around your boot, shooting forward, that may get just as good of an angle as that suction cup.

Here's one I did a couple of years ago wakeboarding:

That was a lot of fun, although I'm sorry to say I didn't get a chance to board with the Bogleyites too much! See, I have this tree addiction...

Thats OK Heather addictions of those kind are understood around here. I like the trees too, but need fluffier powder or I end up kissing the tree and that is just awkward.

Yeah the powder definitely helps. I think I wrestled with a couple of trees on that first run, even! One of these days I'll do just a groomer run. Maybe.
