    He had a bed-side decal that looked like something a TW member would rock. I went to Aspen/Snowmass. Day I rode, snowmass opened High Alpine. Unfortunately I didn't have the wind to hike the head wall, (I was trying to take it easy. My asthma definitely made my lungs feel the altitude more than usual. I was so easily winded) but it was a lot of fun. The chair lifts seemed crazy slow though. Maybe it was just me but it took me like half an hour at least go get to the top of high alpine lift. Lol
