Armada Bubbas looking sad and lonely in the corner, maybe next year, friends.
If last year was the best of times, this was surely the worst of times.
Seeing what EV could be on both ends of the precipitation scale told a tale of two seasons.
If anything, a good year to test your snow science skills.
If you had none, it was a good year to get some.
Silverton Avy School, et al.
earned their keep this year, with plenty of examples to show would be snow gurus.
EV dictated same, with what seemed like a slide a day.
Fortunately, only a few serious injuries in Mushie and no deaths in EV.
The rest of Colorado and the ski world as a whole wasn’t as lucky.
A constant reminder in skiing, where the crossroads of freewill and inherent risk intersect.
Full on summer now, so enjoy the off season.
If not there’s always the great white North.
AK on the mind…see you next year.
