App Anniversary and Rome Pre-Jib.

Headed down to App last weekend for the $5 lift-tic anniversary weekend and Rome Premature Jibulation. Learned some tricks, meet some friends, and most importantly had some fun.


4 hour drive never felt better.


"Welcome to App!" -One of our many sayings from this trip, being it was Stevie G's first visit.


The crowd was not actually that bad.


Except if you wanted to go to the, top.


After our heated wait getting our park passes, we actually got outside.

About this time is when Stevie G. got ahold of my camera.

Warning: Stevie G. will take ten pictures of himself in different poses if he gets ahold of your camera. Contents under pressure. Keep out of reach of children and animals.


You know how it is.

What are you supposed to do when no resorts within 5 hours are open? Make your own snow and shred it, duh. Master Mtn Ops Rowdy Ryan took advantage of one night of cold temps to make some homemade snow.



Shabam, one night of making.


Shhh theres a session coming.


We got it all sorted out.


Then I took an artsy shot.


This is weird.


We had to switch out rails due to lack of in-run for ol big poppa.
