Ok, so last winter 3 friends and I went on a 2 week vacation to Colorado for some skiing. We got there on a Friday, and didn't want to waste anytime so we got to ski on Saturday. I had never even seen snow in my life, because I grew up in southern Texas, now am in college at Texas A&M. So we got geared up, and hit the slopes around 2. I had never skied, obviosly, so i was a little neverous. I said to my friends, "Hey, don't you think I need to practice on a small hill first?" And my friend Brad says, "No, Mike, just ski, you'll get the hang as you go." So all 3 of us started going up in the ski lift, first Larry jumped off at his part, then Brad, so I was left going up ontop of a 12,000 ft mountain by myself.
I expected there to be a bathroom, and a little cabin or something on top, but when I started getting closer and closer to the point I was to get off I noticed that the booths didn't stop, they made a non-stop rotation up and down the mountain. I jumped off at the highest point, and found a level part I could walk on, and saw a sign to 3 different slopes. The begginer (Breckenridge), The intermediate (Vail), and The expert(The Widowmaker). I followed the sign to Breckenridge, and at the start there was a sign that read: "This course is closed due to repair work for your safety, we are sorry for the inconvenience .".. I had no other choice but go down the intermediate. So, I followed the path about 30 yards to the Intermediate slope, and to my luck there was a sign saying "We are sorry for the inconvenience, but this closed due to unsafe conditions from avalanches." I had no choice, I had to go down on "The Widowmaker"
I got to the start of "The Widowmaker" and thought 'Oh shit, I'm going to die'.. I gathered up the courage, and slowly eased off the edge, on to an almost vertical drop. I started flipping over because I didn't know how to land properly. After flipping and sliding 50 or so yards down, I finnaly stopped at a level part, infront of a huge rock. After that, I went off to the right side of the track, where I wouldn't get in anybody's way, and crawled on my ass all the way down.
I got down 2 hours later, tired as shit, and sore. I cought up with Brad and Larry, after they got done with thier runs, and I stayed in the cabin for the rest of the week.
I'm the one on the far right

Not much of a story. Attractive girl, though.

Assuming you people don't always dress like The Village People and pirates, it looks like you missed your window by not discussing the post-trauma costume party---and another pic of, oh I don't know, that hottie who's holding the Coors crushing the empty can with butt cheeks.
