All in all it was a great weekend but im sure very dissapointing for some of the people who traveled a long distance due to the poor weather and lack of organization.
All the volunteer work was a huge success, especially from Randy and Lori from Zacks Tracks! All we can hope is that sombody like this can pic up the event for next year. The mountain remains clean and not allot of injuries that arent normaly expected from that many people on the hill.
Drag races started out terrable with ozone as a no show but the Alpine boy's put in a great effort to organize something on the spot! As far as I could tell Neil Mclarens apex was the fastest sled making runs.
From there I raced down to the Lower bull pen to make first line up the 90, couple sleds followed up and crashed. Then Kyle Micku Made it over on his 1200 doo followed by Gord Humphrey on racers edge rx1.
Gord Humphry, Niel Mclaren and I believe one other made it over Swenson street. I got off my line right at the bottom trying avoid rutts and somehow turned the sled around at the top, had the whole sled up the rocks on the side to make it. The crowd liked that one!!
From there we decided to try the Airport for better visability, but no success... Gibbs, steve-o, and I climbed the large chute up the middle but barely even found our way back through the fog up top. Luckely for the spectators Humphrey and Micku kept climbing the Short pulls to the left for some awsome action! I believe Humphrey climbed every chute in the airport but did not make the one the to the far right.
Sunday we woke up to sunshine and headed straight for the monster bowl! There was 2 feet of fresh over night and made for the deepest conditions that monster has ever seen action. Neil Mclaren took first line up monster and made it look easy, I followed up and over behind him. A few crashes and some real good attempts but all that made it was Niel, Micku, Stanger and I.
Good job to stanger for putting a two smoker over monster! I was the only one to try the gash but Turned out Twice 100 feet from the top, just wasnt confident I had the speed to make the very steep last 100 feet!
Im sory if the camara guy is a little biased on who he takes pics of but it my dad snapping pics...haha!
