Park City – Day 3
Day 3 of Park City brought us a few inches of snow! We started right as the lifts opened up (or just a few minutes behind) and headed straight to the Powder Monkey “Adventure Alley” section on the back side of the mountain. This is a tree filled gully full of little dips and whoops that…

Park City – Day 1
Day 1 in Park City was excellent. The sun was shining, there had been a touch of snow the day before, and we set out to explore the mountain. We got a bit of a late start because the trip felt very last minute for a lot of people. We needed the morning half of…

Farmer’s Market Min Maxing
Heather decided we should hang out at the Farmer’s Market. I’m totally cool with this because it means breakfast followed by the purchase of fresh eggs. I realized I have the same problem at the Farmer’s Market as I do in major MMOs or RPGs that I play. It’s all about stats and numbers. Vendor…

Hiking Pilot Mountain with Wes
I decided to take Wes up on some of our prior conversations where we talked about hiking around various NC mountain spots. We took a Saturday and spent it at Pilot Mountain hiking for about 9 miles. This was an excellent trip and I’m glad we decided to hike the whole thing instead of just…
