Colorado :: Day 4, DenverWe made the rounds shopping in 65 degree weather in Denver. We were supposed to fly out tonight, except that the east coast is about to get pounded with snow and our flight was canceled by mid-day. We booked a hotel in Boulder since neither of us have ever been there. Apparently the guy that designed Church Street in Burlington also designed Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, and it looks identical.
Colorado :: Day 3, KeystoneDay 3 left us with total bluebird conditions at Keystone, making for an awesome last day of riding. We went back to Fiesta Jalisco for more carne asado, eating quantities that impressed even myself.
Colorado :: Day 2, KeystoneDay 2 was at Keystone, which is one of my favorite resorts. It was still dumping and we found some stashes in the trees. They have $5 cat rides, but with 50mph winds above the tree line, we didn’t bother. The Malolo is the greatest board ever when there’s soft snow. I was screwing around filming Tara in this video, and then a tree reached out a grabbed me…
Colorado :: Day 1, BreckenridgeFlawless start to the trip: Some serious precision packing and weighing got all of our stuff on the plane with only having to pay $15 for one bag. Then, we had booked a full-size rental car because everything was sold out, and a last minute call to my work travel agent got us an SUV so everything would fit easily. No problems with the flight, and Tara hooked up an awesome condo right at the mountain for cheap. And, the day we left Keystone got 10". I’ve been wanting to check out Breckenridge since high school and somehow have never ridden there so we decided to spend day 1 there. It was dumping when we got there but the mountain kinda sucks because it’s really flat.
