Continuing on the tradition, Shari Post organized the Annual A-Basin Spring Beach Bash for a number of co-workers. Ditching work for a day, all of us enjoyed a fantastic day on the slopes. Of course - it wouldn't be a Spring Beach Bash without a party on "The Beach". Each year, our "beach" spread gets more and more elaborate - and this was our best yet (portable tables, chairs, blenders, etc.)

How not to park at A-Basin This car was high centered on a pile of snow - who knows how long it"d been like this.
