2014
Park City, Utah

The HFSC skied in Park City, UT Feb 26-Mar 2, 2014. Mark Hammer was the trip organizer. The group stayed at the Snow Flower condos with ski-in/ski-out access.

Trip Notes: Upon our arrival, the temperature at the Salt Lake City Airport was 57 degrees and it was a warm 46 degrees in Park City. Snow conditions were not good to start Day 1, however fortune smiled on the HFSC. It started snowing just before lunch, and 6 inches fell in the afternoon. We had more snow on Days 2 and 3, so the skiing conditions were really good.

Lee introduced new “You Almost Can’t Lose” rules for Liars Dice. Kevin blew out his ski boot while skiing with the big dogs, and Lowell was introduced to Jupiter Bowl. Chris severely injured a calf muscle when he stepped in a hole while walking from the ticket window to the lift line and was not able to ski on Day 3.  The HFSC has never had a skiing accident result in lost skiing time, and the record is still intact because Chris’s injury was judged to be a “pre-skiing” injury.

Mark “volunteered” to be the organizer for future HFSC trips.
