Back from Texas

After a nine-day sojourn in Texas for SxSW Interactive and a few days of Lindy Hop in Houston, I’m back. It was a nice break, but I’m feeling disconnected from the ski scene and trying to get back into the groove.
I arrived home to find some goodies from Ibex on my doorstep—some men’s and women’s base layers. The timing couldn’t be better because this weekend, I’m going with a bunch of friends for my first back country hut trip so we will have an opportunity to test wool’s vaunted stink-proof properties.
I did come away from Texas with at least one piece of ski-related information. Having flown Frontier there and back, my attention was called to their two-for-the-price-of-one promotion with Winter Park and Copper Mountain:
Frontier passengers who fly between November 3, 2006 and April 15, 2007 can exchange their Frontier boarding pass receipt at any ticket window at Winter Park/Mary Jane or Copper Mountain and receive two lift tickets for the price of one at the full-day window rate.
Both resorts close on April 15, though, so it doesn’t leave much time.
Your yurt companions will appreciate the stink-free wool. :) I’ll probably be wearing stinky capilene though. :)
