McCartney roll call
Went last night. Bucket list checked. Took my 10 and 13 kids, what an amazing show and experience.

Took family to Paul McCartney last night. Holy shit he still has it. Somewhere between being in sight of a living legend and watching my kids sing Let It Be along with the packed arena I might have gotten a little dusty. And did two nights of Phish last weekend, quite a diverse musical week.

Ski Season 18/19
I’d also been in the CO mountains 50+ times with zero issues...until Breck two years ago. Drove in at tail end of recovering from a nasty cold. Unloaded the car while watching us whip mizzou. Had a couple beers but couldn’t catch my breath. Woke up 3am anxious / feverish, shit gets in your head. Buddy takes me to ER and my blood oxygen was at 70. Doc said “out of town” colds can lead to mega respiratory issues with sudden altitude climbs and that my 70 oxygen level that could have led to brain damage / death if ignored via drunk pass out sleep. I got prescribed oxygen tanks 24/7 for 5 days with zero skiing. CSB.

Got caught in a complete white out at Mammoth a few years ago with wife and 8 and 10 year old daughters. It was fucked up and they rightly panicked. Few hours later back to bluebird. The weather there is bananas.

Anyone have success with Surefoot? Concept feels solid but can only find limited bona fide reviews. I have Fred Flinstone feet.

I totally get your sentiment, especially with changing technology, but stopping in Denver, Frisco or Dillion means you have to be traveling through during shop open hours, have the right car, not be taking a shuttle/car service, not care about needing adjustments, not being able to swap out skis, etc. Surly hereby commands that you buy skis now damnit!

I just went the opposite route. Always owned boots and rented demo skis, but after spending $80 x 4 days at Crested Butte for New Years I made the plunge. Blizzard Bona Fide which is in the one ski quiver range. Also got a rolling dakine ski bag that easily holds skis, poles, boots, helmet, plus some jeans and sweaters. Flys free on Southwest. Dig those Craig’s list gems you found.

Yeah, i wish the skiing gods / corporate America made lessons this easy. Made that Sunday I70 run like 10 times, this was by far the worst. The “stop light” thing going into the tunnel seems to have backfired.

Holy shit. Just had a 4 hour drive from Vail to DIA. Shuttle company accidentally sent van one size too small, so we had to pack some luggage on seats meaning all 10 of us were on top of each other in a 3 row van. Huge traffic jam going into the tunnel. One of the kids f’in pukes. We’ve got no water and like 2 rags. It’s literally an hour until we get to the first exit with a gas station. Murder.

I love my Anon M2’s for exactly that reason. Crazy easy to swap lenses given the magnet system.

Surly official camping and backpacking thread
Zion has some killer stuff. Not 4 day R2R but the narrows and angels landing are both epic day hikes with central lodging options.

Finally bought the Blizzard Bonafide skis I’d been eyeing. Vail 2/20 can’t get here soon enough.

Cowboys @ Redskins: Week 7
I live west coast and this is the first CB game not on locally in a long time. I don’t think I can stream on the CBS app or their fuboTV affiliate? Only DTV Sunday Ticket?

Chiefs @ Patriots: SNF
My Chiefs +4 is not feeling good

Just to be clear, it was a SEC game they played yesterday. Glad they clarify in the headline.
