Snowboarding with Skiiers Falls creek

Early start not quite stupid-o'clock but dumb enough.
Jason almost unconscious in morning.
Fully loaded and roof racked territory 7 boys, 5 boards 2 skis + snacks.
Big-fat rain at car park.
Stinging rain on chair lift.
The soft marshmallow like snow of the day before turned into a hard icy material resembling concrete. The first bum fall of the day knocked the wind out of me.
Visibility around arm length.(Gerard make sure you put your stack in the comments)
Valentin knocked me over tempin bowling style.
Took some revenge disembarking chairlift.
Went up summit chairlift, would later find out it was expert only.
Sign pointed to an intermediate run off a cliff into fog.
At end of the day got lost and followed a narrow strip of snow with rivers on either side.
Ayresie and I carried the shoeless big-fella from the hire shop to the territory.
With all the money we saved on fuel we decided to test out the territory and donate to the local highway patrol. Spent the drive home thinking of cool things we should have said to the cop but didn't.

Snowboarding Falls Creek










Shahan's Territory

stopping over at Ford in broadie
Discovered Val is goofy(left foot fwd) at the hire-shop (you test this by pushing the person and seeing which foot they stick out to catch themselves, tested val for next half hour)
Scary eddie
Yeti terrorizing alpine roads.

Snow boarding rude awakening even Val the most stable person on his feet unstable on snow.

Ed with head start showed us how to do it.

Ayresie the fearless stunt maniac picked it up in record time.
Good weather soft snow.


After a great day get to the motel, everyone completely knackered.
Almost no energy for dinner and showers.
Late night visitors.

Onya gez for getting online to get tickets for me and ed. I feel you don't get the full concert going experience if you dont wake up at the crack of dawn. Queue up for 2 and a half hours at the ticketek head office before work all in rather coolish conditions.
