At this moment I'm at about a 6/10, but earlier today while watching Partly Cloudy I was definitely at a 10/10

honestly its been at a solid 7.5-8/10 ever since closing day. the kids camp employees at work a few weeks ago were watching old TGR tapes in one of our day lodges as I was passing thru, got me so fucking amped to click back in again.

I miss it a little bit. Considering my home mountain back home is about to get dumped on. But I've found other hobbies and goals for summer til winter starts. And I'm enjoying my job heaps as well so yeah.

Idk if I miss it as much as working in the snow, but I def feel a bit lost without winter. Usually I go pretty hard on shows and festivals but have slowed down on that and just would rather build shit for people to shred.

Maybe I'll go to the beach and build some sandcastles.

was at a good 8 or 9 right after the end of season, was binge watching edits and shred saucing hard until a few weeks ago. Tbh as soon as it hit 35°C where I lived I kinda forgot about it, plus i'm getting close to a nice week on a glacier park so there's that. Remember people, the biggest wait is once work/uni starts again...spetember to december. Fuck that shit.

For me it's the opposite, by the end of the season I'm ready for a break. Come about a month into summer the withdrawals come.


Stoke level this morning is at a 9/10, what I would give to flow through one lap of our rail line at our park...

Like a 3. I enjoy summer and warm weather. This winter was unbelievably cold in ny and i got pretty sick of freezing my ass off everyday this winter. Although, talking about winter plans and seeing my skis collect dust has me jonesin to jump off stuff and slide around on snow.

Probably like a 2 honestly. A-basins long season keeps me satisfied and fishing and climbing have kept me busy this summer when I'm not working.

Probably a 1 or 2. Got my trampoline and I spend my time out on the lake boating, fishing, waterskiing, etc. Hardly miss it right now, although I had a dope skiing dream the other night.
