I haven't posted too much to OTS recently because I haven't been skiing much. It's all because of a single broken bone...broke while skiing, of course.

Even though this has hampered the amount of time skiing, I still may be far from done-bar this season...

It's getting close.

I just got my first issue of Powder, the 2008 Buyer's Guide magazine. Ski porn, the first of the season, has arrived.

The Turn has begun.

I'm taking one more stab at the 2006/2007 season. I'm not going to be able to beat my record of days on the snow (last season was 42), but that's OK, cause this season is going to end with a BANG at Mount Bohemia.

This trip to Utah has been incredible. The snow is terrific, the terrain is great, and the people are just downright awesome. I'd say I could die now, but I want to come back to some epic powder days here first.

Well, my soul must have sold. Because we got snow. And a lot of it (for the Midwest).

13" dumped on Spirit Mountain, my local resort. Although I'm not sure all of it stuck around, what with the 50+ MPH wind gusts that were occurring at the same time. But enough did accumulate to permanently cover up the icy man-made base that had glazed the runs up until this point. Now it's just nice, soft, corduroy to rip on. And even--get this--for a day or two, fresh pow pow. Yes, selling my soul seems to have paid off, finally. Especially considering that my season isn't over yet....
