We like to spend time smiling. That’s why we go to the places that gives us the numbers. With those numbers we get to smile. You should come up and smile too. Here’s your invitation:
smiling on 10sk8

In case you need more convincing, here’s a 1 minute flick we put together of us smiling.

Sometimes we branch out to other places too, but the only rule is that we have to smile.

      i think you’re right bill! I heard he’s moving to Florida where the pavement is great and the pow is non existent!

    Not that I’m complaining, but how did all the bikini links end up at the end of a skate board story? Nice pics, Tony Alva would approve (showing my age…)

    Looking back into the Notch the right side is where we got lost about 1980 (yeah, before your time)and yours truly, as the fearless (and brainless) leader, was told to jog down Spruce Peak and back up to the lime green Fiesta at the Notch, and then buy beers as punishment for causing panic in the troops. Great hike, though, a little snow up top for early October. won’t be long. great pics and vid clip.

      love your tales Bushman! Keep sharing them! If you ever want to post a “TR from the Archive” to FIS, we’d be glad to consider it. Especially if it’s got any old pics, that’d be AWESOME.

      email me through my profile if you want to chat. THanks for reading!

      no we haven’t yet… but i’m thinking about getting either that, or a mountainboard (like a mountain bike, but a skateboard… good for going down trails… has a brake [so it’s cheating XD], etc…) next summer.

      i’d love to take this type of summer board sport out onto all our grassy slopes! why not?!

      thanks. yeah i agree. there isn’t a whole lot of meat in roaming around and rolling down some pavement for a “TR”-proper, so had to really aim for the “feel” of it instead. glad it worked for you
