Skifari 2019
Its that time of the year when dreams of skiing the deep fluffy stuff start to appear. So comes the planning for Skifari.
What is Skifari? Its a cheap ski bum road trip. We ski one resort, drive to the next one and camp in the parking lot, have a fire and tell lies for a few hours before we crash and repeat the process. We have everything from RV's, Tacoma's, and little Subaru's, everyone finds their own way to sleep in the lot. Its a ton of fun, we have made some great friends over the years, and always look forward to the next year. So lets make this year another great one! It will be the 6th running at this point I think.
Sound like fun? Join in! Open to absolutely anyone who likes to ski or snowboard and has a good attitude. Post here, send me a PM whatever, I will get in touch with more details as needed!
