Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 18, 2016 Baller Share Posted July 18, 2016 for either the Western Regionals this week or the Nationals in a few weeks? I am tied up this week but hope to check it out a bit on Friday morning, then hope to make a plan to check out some of the nationals in a few weeks. Would love to meet anyone who comes up if there is time. I am sure if you are traveling and competing you may not have time to chat. But would be good to know who will be here. My home is nearly 3 hours away in Hailey and is not on the way, so not an easy drop by and I cannot offer to pull anyone as requested on the other thread. But would be fun to put some faces with the names if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 18, 2016 Author Baller Share Posted July 18, 2016 @lpskier Awesome. I was trying to think if I could offer you a tow somehow, but by the time you are up on I-84 south of me, you will only be a couple/few hours from you destination and you would have to go out of your way.

Baller MrJones Posted July 18, 2016 Baller Share Posted July 18, 2016 Our family will be there. Flying out Saturday before Nats for Sun/Mon overnight rafting trip. Try to scrounge a practice ride on Tuesday, the ski Wed-Friday. Looking forward to our first trip to Idaho! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 18, 2016 Author Baller Share Posted July 18, 2016 Cool! To be clear, I have no connections in Caldwell so am of limited (or no) help there. But if anyone wants to know anything about the Boise area I can maybe help. We have spent a lot of time over there over the years for the kids' soccer tournaments and the like. It is a fun little city and has a really vibrant downtown for a little place. Good brews and food too. Caldwell is about a half an hour out of downtown Boise if anyone is staying there. Less going on in Caldwell proper for non-ski entertainment, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 19, 2016 Author Baller Share Posted July 19, 2016 Really excited that all you guys are coming up to Idaho. I have to see when I can get there for Nationals to check it out, and which days I will be more likely to see some of you ski. We had the US National Alpine Ski Championships at my home resort of Sun Valley last spring, which was a pretty big deal with some pretty impressive skiers including Mikaela Shiffrin among others, so it is a big bonus to get this event here in the area this summer. Can't believe I was not more aware of it before. If any of you care to share which days you will likely be skiing, I would love to know. I am most likely to be able to get there Friday or Saturday, though I don't know if I can get there in time for the skiing on Friday as the schedule looks pretty early.

Baller_ The_MS Posted July 19, 2016 Baller_ Share Posted July 19, 2016 Someone from Georgia drive up through south Minnesota and drop some Sweetwater off. Ski rides on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ lpskier Posted July 19, 2016 Baller_ Share Posted July 19, 2016 @sunvalleylaw I may be driving past you on Thursday or Friday before Nationals. How far out of the way? I need to keep my perfect form honed to a knife edge. #iskiconnelly Lpskier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller sunvalleylaw Posted July 20, 2016 Author Baller Share Posted July 20, 2016 @lpskier, unfortunately as I look at the schedule, I will still be out of town at that time. Darn it! It would have been a little over an hour out of the way. l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
