having grown up between the two tallest hills in the US, big sky and jackson hole. I really kick myself in the ass sometimes for moving away, but such is life. the resorts around here blow comparitavely speaking. I did 8 days on the teton pass this year and one day at a local resort, lol. people call me a powder snob, and im ok with that. with as feeble as im becoming, quality over quanity. if the snows not good, i get hurt, so its just not worth it to me anymore. i love riding and cherish each time i get another day. knees, wrists, back...they are all shot. im one good tumble from taking up fishing and golfing...
and ya, hottie is my wife. thank you very much  shes a trooper. sitting in our van for 5 hours with 9 guys and not one nag. total tomboy. shes done her own motorswaps in cars, can change racetires out in under 15 minutes, drives just as fast as a lot of guys around here, mt bikes crazier lines than some of the guys ive been riding with for 20 years. plus she will be first in the door at a nudie bar, and if youve ever taken a chick into a nudie bar, you know the attention they get from the dancers  i got lucky, how she puts up with me is beyond my comprehension.
tonight is our first camp in the van. just gonna be a quick and out to a local hotsprings an hour away as we have a wedding tomorrow at 4.

I seriously hope you guys are talking about the lady in the van, and not the bearded dude at the end of the line on the right. 
Not that there's anything wrong with that....

thanks man, and lmao. lets just say, my wife learned from her sister everthing NOT to do in life and the order in which to NOT do it. in other words no, sorry 
first camping night in the van. basically the table sits inbetween the two rear seats and makes a platform for our airbed. sucks for now, but was more comfy than i thought it was gonna be. even better, the wife slept well too.
just a few pix of the spot we met another couple we hang with at.
