This past Saturday (12-4) Silverton Mountain, Venture Snowboards, and Ska Brewing threw a season kick-off party at the Grand Imperial Hotel with live music from The Crags and Farmington Hill, as well as a huge raffle with product from companies like Smith, Silverton Powdercats, Ska, Bubba’s Boards, and limited Ska collaboration board from Venture as the grand prize. Mother Nauture also sponsored the event with a generous storm. Plenty of Ska’s seasonal ale was sucked down (as well as an assload of cheap beer and liqour) by all with plenty of hangovers, late-starts, and no-shows to go around on the hill the next day.
