NEW Ski Carrying Device!

[Abbi]

As an aside, for those commenting about arthritis, I know this sounds wacky and I have no rationale for why it should work, but I have multiple family members who swear by their gin-soaked raisins. According to my mom, it takes about 2 weeks to notice a change, and she was just on the verge of chalking it up to an old wives' tale when her fingers started not locking up as much...

Forget the raisins! It looks like it’s the juniper berries in the gin. So just drink gin! Skip the raisins!

I read another opinion that it could be the sulphur in the raisins. If so, you could use other dried fruit!

In any case, I’m ready.

Tanqueray always tasted like trees to me! Let us all know how the experiment goes!

Back to our regularly scheduled thread, the company has recommended that you purchase the wider version for skis over 100 underfoot.

Oh -- what? What were we talking about, again?

I have no idea. But we always have fun doing it.

Lots of fun!

But there’s a mystery, too. @skibum4ever ’s rainbow-toed socks have disappeared and some unassuming slippers have appeared in their place. Is there a sock thief on the loose? Divas should demand an investigation!

Photo was at Mammoth after skiing. My sheepskin slippers are an apre ski requirement.

Stevie has been a big help as I walk to the Keystone Gondola each day. Tomorrow he is hanging out in my sleeve and going to the Basin.

That device is pretty cool. My solution is to drive to the drop off area, drop off all our skis and poles, go park, and then pick up all our gear once we get through the parking lot. I hate carrying it.

Hello, @MagicForest ! So happy to have you here!

How did you enjoy booting up in the car?

Anyhow, it will be better (we hope) this year.
