    Who were the utter :blb::axe::blb: boofheads who today ran their boot track straight up

    A) the middle of Silk Bowl

    I’m heading back country in a few weeks and one of the party is snow shoeing, as I have zero intention of hanging with him, he has been given very strict instructions to stay out of the ski tracks
