My friend, Steph, is snowed in there right now. She's been taking run after run, signing on every 3 hrs to tell me how amazing it is right now.

i'm heading to Portillo next week. Making turns in 9 days. Got a new pair of skis mounted up. I'm ready to tear that place a new one. I'm having trouble sleeping thinking about all that pow.
