Slush Cup!

Spring is here - a pond is dug in front of Galcier Creek Lodge on Blackcomb and people ski down in costumes and various states of sobriety and attempt to make it to the other side.  Most people don't, but the crowd loves it, hurrah!  Mandatory pelting of snowballs by the crowd for all contestants; "try not to hit her in the face!"

Some notable costumes (or non-costumes) included: a few banana suits, a gorilla costume (who ran across the hill chasing the banana as he went down), a guy on a monoski in a retro outfit, a guy dressed as Elmo (but only from the waist UP...) and lots of people going down together with matching duds on.  The event was peppered with bouts of nudity from some of the participants.  Bring on summer!
