Re: Stus-List : off topic Skiing - Now sailing in the South
First, thanks, Mike. To Ron and all listers, Listers are always welcome to sail on Touche' anytime they are in the South Louisiana area. That is, when I'm not out West on the slopes. You can still sail even with bad knees. 75 and light rain here today. Next two days are sunny and high 60's. Moderate breeze from the NNW. That means windward or weather shore and flat water sailing in Mandeville. Might just have to go out on the lake. :) Dennis C.

Trying to get a headstart on the ski season a friend and I decided to do a ski mountaineering trip to Ecuador. For all you skiers out there, here is a bit of a trip description Our goal was to get as high as we could and ski some volcanoes. Getting high on volcanoes usually means a severe headache and serious shortness of breath :-) sorry no hallucinations! After a week of acclimatization hikes to 17,000' we did our first ski ascent. We drove to the refugio and hiked our skiis to the base of the glacier at 17,000' and promptly got headaches and a bad sleep so we went to town to recover. The next day we went back and with a 3AM start we hiked up to our skiis and boot packed our shit to the summit at 19,000'. We skied off the summit avoiding some seracs and crevasses. We had to jump a few crevasses - that was fun!!. The snow was rather thin, 1" of crusty snow over isothermal ice, made for some nice corn skiing. The nearby volcano Cotopaxi was erupting and spewing a fine ash all over the snow. It was interesting skiing black snow (not good for the bases however). A couple of spa days later we headed up Volcan Antisana - another 18,700'. We had similar snow conditions but much more severe route finding issues. We negotiated some very big seracs and crevasses. Getting up and down required and lot of vertical snow and ice climbing. We spent a few hours route finding on the way dow trying to avoid the worst of the seracs and finding the best way to ski. We jumped and toured around some big ass crevasses, but made it back to safety by early afternoon, it was only a 12 hour day. Ecuador is a beautiful country. Defiantly worth exploring, however climate change has done a number on the snow conditions on the volcanoes, very warm dry weather has melted the glaciers and opened the crevasses.

Re: Stus-List : off topic Skiing
Apologies to the non-skiers on the list. Yeah, $100+ is a bit painful. OTH, there are bargains available (and we know how much sailboat owners like bargains. There, it's sailing related). I'm skiing 4 days at Steamboat, 4 days at Winter Park, several days at Copper Mountain and Crested Butte this year on a $569 pass. I also get access to Eldora, CO if I choose to go. Also included are discounted single day tickets for friends. Very good deal if you are skiing 5+ days. Vail offers various passes for their resorts. Really good deals also if you plan well and buy early. I will be skiing in Colorado much of January, early February and again in March if any listers are out there. Have truck, will ski! :) Dennis C.

Re: Stus-List off topic Skiing
$119 CAD is only $87 in US dollars! Plus, since you're a Washington resident you can get the Edge card which is $76 USD for 1 day. That's only $7 more than Steven's Pass at $69, and Whistler has a lot more terrain. The 5 hour drive is what deters me though. Stevens had 9" of powder yesterday, really fun time. -Patrick C LF 38 Seattle, WA On Mon, Dec 14, 2015 at 5:45 PM, <cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com> wrote: > > -- Forwarded message -- > From: Rick Rohwer <rickroh...@gmail.com> > To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com > Cc: > Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2015 17:44:16 -0800 > Subject: Re: Stus-List : off topic Skiing > Enivous about equador, and you living in BC and skiing anywhere but BC. > > On another note, I think I have given up on skiing in Whistler so it’s all > yours!

All, Last year there was some discussion of a ski trip. I had hoped to go out West this year, but I am settling for a trip to New England 2/15 - 2/17. My current plan is to go to Sunday River, but if there is a group interested in joining me, the location could be changed. Sunday River only accepts weekend reservations that include a Friday night. Because I need to be home for Valentine's Day, I am booked at a nearby inn. Please let me know if you are interested. -- Joel 35/3 Annapolis 301 541 8551 ___ This List is provided by the CC Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com

Re: Stus-List Off topic: skiing
I might be up for that. Keep us informed and we can see how conditions are shaping up.

Re: Stus-List Off topic: skiing
Joel, Wish I could make it. I skied Sunday River a few years ago. One of my few trips east. It would be nice to have a CC ski rendezvous. This year is booked but next year is definitely doable if we plan early. I'm in Keystone, A-Basin next week, then Telluride and Durango couple weeks later and finally Whistler, BC) Would like to start gathering a list of CC owners who are interested. Please reply to me and/or Joel so we can determine who the skiers are. Whistler might be an interesting choice because of the number of listers nearby. Dennis C.

Re: Stus-List Off topic: skiing
I've booked my big ski trip this year, March 5-12 at Aspen and Snowmass. I might be interested in a future trip though. My wife isn't a skier and these trips cost all of my good husband points! so I only try to do one per year.

Re: Stus-List Off topic: skiing
I don't ski no more. I have many interesting X-rays of my right leg.
