Yesterday (sadly!) was the final day of the ski season on Vail Mountain. The tweets were, as you may imagine, frequent and fantastic.

O.A.R., Chriss Isaak, Pond Skimming, "Four at 4", silly costumes and praise for a terrific season were popular topics, and everyone seemed to be on Cloud Nine. We mean they were happy, and not on the Blue Sky Basin run of the same name. Although many were probably there too...

Here are the final tweets, twitpics and tinyurls of the Vail Ski Season (these may jog some memories for a few of you...). What a great year!
