The Head ski part of the museum was worth the price of admission. It
reminded me of sharpening edges.
Ever wonder where the expression 'the best part of skiing is taking off
your boots' came from?
How many generations of our old bindings are show here?
Look - our old bindings are historic and in a museum!
Billy
Kidd
Billy has roots in Stowe, Vermont where he learned the
fundamentals of ski racing. He skied for the University Vermont
of the Mountains ski team. He has been a Colorado resident since
he attended the University of Colorado, in the mid-sixties. He
has since set his roots down in Steamboat Springs, where he represents
the area as a goodwill ambassador, wearing his familiar feather-trimmed
cowboy hat. Billy was the first American male alpine racer to win an
Olympic medal, which was the silver at Innsbruck, Austria in 1964. I wonder if Gaston decorated this
lobby?
A feature of our trip was feeling smug after finding $125 jeans marked
down to $25.
