The BIG 3-0 is coming up! Here's my flyer for the festivities. 

Brighton's Last Stand! It's always a good time up here on their last day. They had a keg off of one of the lifts and everything. Good times, good times. It's kind of sad for them to be closing with a 146 inch base, and more storms on the way, but thank God for the Bird! Farewell, Brighton, for another epic season! 

The crowd meets with Croin's approval. 

Everyone man your beers! 

There's the braves souls who attempted the pond skimming. There was no dummy downhill this year, but watching everyone try to cross the pond while swillin' beer was entertaining enough. 

Here's one of the successfull pond skimmers. I was tempted to try for a while, but i chickened out. I didn't feel like getting wet! 

The Croin eagerly watches on. 

Pretty view. I guess i should've taken a picture of Timp before the storm came in. 

More pretty views. 

Friends just hangin' out. 

I love mount MIlli! 

Can I go wee now? Weeee! 

This is a warning to not touch the cat while he's in his chair! 

Another fantastic day at the Bird. That big, black building is where we're staying for my big 3-0. I'm excited! 

Ahh, the happy couple! 

Another happy couple! 

So, my vacation's over, but i got 7 out of 9 days up riding in the mountains. It was an amazing week, and now i don't want to go back to work, but you gatta do what cha gatta do. #$@! that, I want to do this every day! Let's hope for good weather on Cinco de Mayo! 

?! 

I guess Croin is trying to look masculine in front of the Solitude trail map. It'was the 'Tude's last day, and beautifulone at that, so we took it. Took it to the 'Tude, that is. So long until the disc golf course opens! 

papoose! 

Hey, Bone! Look what game we found for $19.95! It's fun as ever! 

This is our seducing look. You are helpless! 

at least the view from the hike out was nice! 

Vacation's fun! Even when you forget sunblock and are exhausted from riding 6 good days in a row. Viva! 

See the big cliff in the middle? I came down just to the left of that and into the huge, open bowl. I had to hike (walk) back to the lift, and it was quiet a traverse, but it was worth it!
