This week, the ski community from coast to coast is saluting 98 year old George Jedenoff’s birthday and his 56 year skiing career.  He’s still at it at Snowbird and Alta, and he’s got an inspiring, upbeat and highly engaging Powder Philosophy that is really worth hearing.  Thanks, George, you are our ski hero.

We also have Resort Reviews from some very cool ski areas.  Our friend, Paolo Guardiano, recently traveled to the Dolomites in Italy to visit Dolomiti Superski, a mega network of ski resorts in a magnificent setting.  Tamsin Venn visited another big area, Sunday River, ME, where she finds a group of seniors who self-organize daily activities. Susie Winthrop took her grandchildren to Winter Park, CO, a resort close to Denver.  She found a variety of terrain and has suggestions for avoiding lift lines.  Seattle correspondent John Nelson went to nearby White Pass, WA, and found that seniors 73+ are treated to free skiing.  Thank you, White Pass.

We review Injinji Performance 2.0 toe socks and find them surprisingly comfortable.  Yes, toe socks.  Very fun.

Thanks to Lif' Ticket, whoever you are. We do put the foot rest down.
