244 inches. That’s how much snow fell between 12a – 12:15a on the morning of the 20th. Equipped with enough Red Bull to power the Large Hadron Collider, I rendezvoused with Marcus, Nik and Nik’s friend from Idaho, sweet mustache Danny early Sunday morning in a LCC car lineup that would have made Walt Disney proud.
After listening to Rihanna’s, ‘S&M’ come on my radio (or iPod) 84 times, the line finally started to move and 76 hours later we were on the tram and run #1 looked so promising. Three turns after leaving the top of the tram we arrived on top of the bigger point of upper cirque’s jaws air. Visibility was about 7 millimeters, which meant perfect conditions for the U’s most magnificent math magician.
Nik launching into the Misty Mountains.

Representing charismatic chemists everywhere, Marcus refused to be outdone. He pointed the air another 10′ higher up from Nik’s starting point and sent it into the ether.

I am not sure which of the rocks in the above photo Marcus annihilated on touchdown, but it was one of them. Unfortunately, the rock bit back and capital chemist, Marcus Tofanelli went down hard.

After making his way to the clinic for xrays and lollipops, Marcus claimed the flip wager war was far from over and Nik, Danny and myself headed back out for the afternoon hoping that Marcus’ injury was not as bad as it appeared to be…
He might not be saggin’ low, but I am confident Nik’s lincoln off the Paul Mitchell Moto would make K-$ proud all the way in his European vacation castle.

The earthquake you felt on Sunday definitely was not from my backslap on the p-dog chair air rebate session.
I liked the part where it hit me in the face.
I am not sure how Nik set this lincoln, or how he got out of this position, but rad.
More airs based on songs from musicals.
Sadly, the stoke was short lived. Further investigations into his gnarliness revealed that Marcus had done some serious damage going 340′ to rock.
From Marcus Facebook yesterday…
the latest marcus update. . . stoke down 89 %, acl’s down 1, mcl’s not good, meniscus assumed to be in poor shape, cartilage around the femur and tibia assumed damaged, tibial plateau damaged to a noticeable extent. plans . . . MRI to durther excess damage, prehab in process. surgery inevitable, visa vi fun on hold, dosey doe hopefully summer will be better for gooden times
Marcus en route to the dollar theater, fully prepared, on a happier day.

Hoping the chemistry lab has raddicapped access,
Jake
