So I lost a ski on Tuesday, couldn't find it. Never thought i'd be that guy, but guess i was wrong. Keep an eye out for (1) volkl gotama 190cm gold 07-08' with a salomon s912ti binding. Lost on the skiers left side of the green valley lift toward the bottom, in the bowl underneath the small cliff bands close to the lift. Thanks everyone, offering a good size reward in money or booze or whatever youre into if anyone comes accross it. -Dan

I was almost that guy today, too, but fortunately when all hope was lost, the ski turned up. Hopefully yours is found.

Shit lots of skis getting lost!  I lost one of my motherships today over on Green Valley at crystal.  Took me an hour and 15 minutes, but I finally found it.

Thats the exact place I lost BOTH of my 1080's two years ago the second day Crystal was open. Landed the cliff, then dug into a pillow on the ride out going full steam and could not find those fuckers for an hour. Powder leashes are lifesavers.
