I'm Sexy 0 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Maybe too early, but what are your targets for the next season? Mine is to spend even more time on mountains and not work all of winter. For that I am now work very hard for saving the money. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Well, apart from meeting I'm Naughty and echineko for a jolly good conversation, my aim is to have more time to enjoy winter. It just seems to go too fast. Link to post Share on other sites

cheeseman 1 Posted July 15, 2005 Share Posted July 15, 2005 Enjoy some Cheese Trips with likeminded cheesefans out to the slopes. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 Cheese Trips?! I'm hoping to take have more longer holidays so we can get more time actually on the slopes. If that means less actual trips, still ok as long as the days in total increases. Link to post Share on other sites
daver 0 Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 well first and foremost, to put together an actual season this coming year. last year's 10 days was something to be ashamed of. but in a more detailed manner of speaking; spend more time in the backcountry and less on the resort, learn more about bc travel/safety, ski bigger, badder, and more technical lines, push my limits, and make everyone's head turn. togue, why would you want to do 1000m of punishing speise when you could cover the distance in a matter of seconds? just kidding. well, kinda.
