Just for the record...I ski sober and avoid alcohol when on the hill :D

:thumbup:

It is great reading you trip accounts.... It is now snowing here (Halifax,NS) - nothing sticking (at +2C) ... but it makes your stories even more enviable. Let the great times continue !!
Mike :wink:

People, people ... this is a Pavel Quiz which requires careful and cognitive thinking and knowledge, with answers utilizing best resources offered without use of the shotgun method of answering.
I've tried this method before ..... :oops:

Look at it this way ..... depression, due to end of skiing season time of year, is being replaced by sleepless nights :!: Ya just got to love spring :mrgreen:

I know that this quiz will help prepare us for next winter. :D

Mike :wink:

Mike, Do you think more Absinthe will help stop me skiing like a carthorse?
:D

Not sure what describes your style bandit; but from the very little I know of Absinthe ..... a strong herbal liqueur ......with its extremely high alcohol content, ranging from 50% to 75% (usually around 60%) (thank you Goggle).......,how more Absinthe affects your style may not matter as much as how good your medical insurance plan may be:mrgreen: Besides, don't you want to remember later on the great trip you are having now?
Get some good rest and then once the Absinthe effects are gone, ski down the steeps with determination and freedom of spirit -- or freedom from spirits :lol: :lol: with complete relaxation and confidence... stopping only to snap a few pics to share with us here. And if you do meet up with Pablo we expect some "duo" photos :!:

Have a great week.

bandit,

When the attitude is in the right gear all will drive smoothly. :shock:

The attitude will say ... "give me some steeps that deserve a woman's touch and style" :!:

I hope the rest of your trips is as good or better than the first part!

Mike :wink:

Vincentus,

Have you skied much at Falls Creek in your part of the world?

I've met people here in NS that have skied there. A small world :shock:
