Chester Bullock’s Guide to Colorado Skiing

US Ski Team continues to have strong showings - good job Bode. Glad to see you finally got a gold.

I skiied Copper on Thursday and Loveland on Friday. Conditions were great at both places. Probably even more so over the weekend, but I heard traffic was a total nightmare. I personally think the Central Mountain ski areas are in trouble. I-70 traffic is causing me to lose interest in a sport that I love. Last year I went once. This year has been 3 days so far - shooting for 8. But if I can’t go mid-week, it is not likely I will go on a weekend. The traffic is ruining it for me.

Congrats to Lindsey Vonn and Julia Mancuso for going 1-2 in the women’s Olympic downhill in Vancouver.

I am sorely disappointed in NBC’s Olympic coverage (as I am every time they do the Olympics). Thank goodness for the Internet and live streams of other networks. EuroSport had outstanding live coverage. NBC should stop attempting to cover the games.
