1
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: Welcome to the ten Minute Storyteller. That's me Bill Simpson,

2
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: your host, narrator and author. We hear at the ten

3
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 1: Minute Storyteller endeavor to entertain you with tall tales or

4
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: rendered swiftly and with the utmost empathy. We pledge to

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: pack as much entertainment, emotion, and exploration into the human

6
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: condition as ten minutes will permit. Many novels on steroids.

7
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: This week we meet Jake, cold and windy at the summit,

8
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: but Jake is determined to make one last run. His

9
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: buds say no, way done for the day, but Jake

10
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: moves to the beat of his own drummer. He leaves

11
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: the warmth and camaraderie of the lodge, steps into his atomics,

12
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: and heads for the lift. Trouble is, there's a perfect

13
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: storm brewing, wind cold snow party at the tech billionaire's

14
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: ski lodge, obstinates and lift operators who are stoned, injured,

15
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: and dreaming of sex. Man may think he has some

16
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: measure of control over his life, but Man is by

17
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: and large a fool. The last run, one more run,

18
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: that's all he wants. One more run, the last run

19
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 1: of the day. A pretty short day in early January,

20
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: dusky by four, pretty dark by four thirty, pitch black

21
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 1: and stone cold by five. But he'll be back in

22
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: the lodge long before that, sitting by the fire with

23
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: a shot of tequila, listening to some soft rock covers

24
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: by his buddy Paul, checking the room for snow bunnies,

25
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,080
Speaker 1: looking for an opery ski adventure with a local. Come on,

26
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: he says to his buds at the bar, Come on,

27
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: one more run, No takers. The boys are into their

28
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:20,920
Speaker 1: second and third bruskies. No interest in buckling up their technicas,

29
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: pulling on jackets, gloves and helmets and heading back out

30
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: into all that cold and wind chill bro comes the chant.

31
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,639
Speaker 1: We'll hit it again in the morning, fresh powder overnight

32
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 1: six to eight inches predicted. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he says,

33
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: climbing off the stool. You lightweights put off till tomorrow

34
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,640
Speaker 1: what you could be doing today. Go ahead, But me,

35
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: I'm going skiing sum At to base boys some at

36
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: to base full boar on everest a jaxon sidewinder. No

37
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 1: sooner is he out the door than word reaches the

38
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: bar that it's party time up at the tech at

39
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: Billionaire's house on the Ridge, and that means free eats,

40
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: free booze, excellent weed and assortment of microdose hallucinogens and

41
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 1: absolutely the best looking girls in the valley. Beard tab extinguished.

42
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: Those boys are gone, gone gone. They're antsy, over zealous

43
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: ski bud long forgotten. Jake steps into his atomics. The

44
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 1: bindings lock with a snap. Plenty cold out here, be

45
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 1: down in the single digit soon, and with those northerly

46
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: gusts blowing across the face of the mountain, it's already

47
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: well below zero up there with the windshill. No big deal,

48
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: he assures himself, No big deal. I'll freeze my butt

49
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: off for ten minutes getting to the top, but coming

50
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: down mountain to myself will be a wild joy ride.

51
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: To hell with those a holes, They're not skers, just

52
00:03:56,520 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: a bunch of posers, spoiled rich kids living on daddy's

53
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: doll He heads for the high speed quad that goes

54
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: from base to summit in a flash, but halfway to

55
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: the chair, a lift operator he knows tells him sorry,

56
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: Jake closed a couple minutes ago, wins way too stiff

57
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: at the top, Jake nods, thinks about calling it a day.

58
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: There's always tomorrow, but He can't just walk back into

59
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 1: the bar now, not after rousing the boys, so he

60
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: decides to ride the Lower Glade lift to the top

61
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: of Sidewinder, and if the Everest chair is open, he'll

62
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 1: ride that to the summit. If not, he'll take an

63
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: easy cruise down through the trees down to the lodge

64
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: and be back on his bar stool in fifteen minutes.

65
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: No line at the Lower Glade lift. He pushes up

66
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: to the loading ramp and says hey to the operator,

67
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: a young kid. He doesn't recognize. Everest still open, he asks,

68
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: as the chair lifts him off his feet and into

69
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: the air. Don't know, the kid replies, red eyed and wary.

70
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 1: The kid has smoked enough durban cush on his shift

71
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: to stone a two thousand pound rhino. By morning, he

72
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: won't remember anything or anyone. The chair sweeps up the

73
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: mountain through a cut in the tall, snow strewn evergreens.

74
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: Not too bad in the glade. Out of the wind,

75
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: not too bad at all, cold, but not bitter. Jake

76
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,479
Speaker 1: shoves his poles under his thighs and pounds his gloves

77
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 1: together to make some warmth. Through the trees. He can

78
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: see Sidewinder to his right and camels hump off to

79
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 1: the left. Not many skiers on either run, just a

80
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 1: few diehards. Everybody's inside, getting warm and blitzed and hoping

81
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 1: to score little in life as delightful as sex with

82
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: a stranger. After a long, hard day of downhill half

83
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: a mile up the glade, another piece of this perfect

84
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: storm begins to fall into place when the lift operator

85
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: at the bottom of everest chair slips and grabs a

86
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: frayed cable, cutting a deep, bloody gash in the palm

87
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: of his hand. Christy shouts, Holy Mother of Jesus. The

88
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 1: gash is a long, wide, bloody river running from his

89
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: wrist to the base of his middle finger. Definitely going

90
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: to need some medical attention. He thinks what he should do,

91
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: decides to get the hell off the mountain pronto, like now.

92
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: He wraps the wound in a reasonably clean cloth and

93
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 1: walkie talkies. The operator at the top of the lift

94
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: explains what happened, says he's skiing down to get some help. Hey, hey,

95
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: wait a second, asked the operator at the summit. Yet,

96
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: is anybody left on the chair? Oh? Yeah, yeah, yeah,

97
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: two guys together about be about maybe halfway up now,

98
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 1: another few minutes, you'll see him. Yeah, can you wait

99
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 1: until they get here? Dude, just just hang on and

100
00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: then we'll close the lift. Blood seeps through the cloth.

101
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 1: The mother's really starting to hurt. A bit of panic

102
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: might be setting in. Ah. I don't know, man, I

103
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know, mutters the injured operator. But then, yeah, okay, sure, sure,

104
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: I'll wait. Sure guess, Okay, okay. Don't let anybody else on, dude, Okay,

105
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: you hear me. Don't let anybody else on. Send him

106
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: down sidewinder, no one else to the summit. Too damn

107
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: cold up here, and too damn windy. Ah I got it, man,

108
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: I got it. Let's go Roger, That says the summit operator.

109
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: This is his ninth season on the mountain. He's a

110
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: good soul, a very conscientious guy, but he also has

111
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,119
Speaker 1: an extremely hot date this evening in like an hour.

112
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: He operates the ski lift for three reasons, money free

113
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: skiing and ready access to chicks on vacation. The Everest

114
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: chair closes at four pm. It's a slow, two person

115
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: twelve minute ride, which means at four to twelve the

116
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: last skier should be off the lift. He typically lets

117
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 1: it run until four to twenty or so, just to

118
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 1: be safe. But today, just this once, what with the

119
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: knucklehead at the bottom, injured and scared, Maybe he'll shut

120
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 1: her down a little early. Once he gets this deuce unloaded,

121
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: then he'll bomb down the mountain, get showered and shaved,

122
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: and let the good times roll. He definitely anticipates getting

123
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:35,319
Speaker 1: some action tonight. Well down below, the gash screams and

124
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: pulsates and bleeds like a gutted calf. The injured lift

125
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: operator wraps more cloth around his hand, pulls on his

126
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 1: glove than his other glove than his hat. Three minutes

127
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: slowly pass, four minutes. That deuce has gotta be at

128
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: the top by now, gotta be. No one else is coming.

129
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,120
Speaker 1: It's too late and too goddamn cold. Screw it, he

130
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,839
Speaker 1: yells out loud. I'm out of here before I bleed

131
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 1: to death. He steps into his backcountry burden, secures the binding,

132
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: and takes off down the mountain like a man running

133
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: from death. This perfect storm increasing in intensity, He's into

134
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: his fifth or sixth turn before remembering he didn't hang

135
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: the clothes sign across the entrance to the lift, and

136
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,440
Speaker 1: half a minute later, Jake reaches the top of the

137
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: Lower Glade lift. He pushes forward, steps off the chair,

138
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: and slides down the shallow exit ramp. Not a soul around,

139
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 1: dead quiet in the glade. It has started to snow lightly,

140
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: a fine powder. The sky's low and dark. Gonna be

141
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: a nice dump. Yeah, gonna be a nice dump. Excellent

142
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: powder skiing in the morning. He decides to skip the

143
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: summit and just take an easy cruise down sidewinder, in

144
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: and out of the trees. It's too damn cold top

145
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: pretty reasonable here, protected by the evergreens, but he knows

146
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: halfway up the everest chair, when you pull clear of

147
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: the tree line, the wind will roar and the cold

148
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: will bite. It'll be insanely cold up there, and who

149
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: needs that misery. Although it's only four or five minutes

150
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 1: from the tree line to the summit, he can handle

151
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,080
Speaker 1: four or five minutes. Hell, hell, yes, he can definitely can.

152
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: For the sheer exhilaration of having Everest, Ajax and sidewinder

153
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 1: all to himself, five or six minutes of pure high

154
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:42,439
Speaker 1: speed bliss, he skis over to the lift. While at

155
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: the summit, the deuce approaches the unloading ramp. The operator

156
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: watches them come all day long. He sits and watches

157
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 1: the skiers ride up the mountain, unload, look around at

158
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: the majestic mountains, and then slide back down. It's an

159
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: absurd to say nothing of costly ritual, but a ritual

160
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: upon which he has built his philosophy and his lifestyle.

161
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: He gives a little wave as the deuce unloads and

162
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: skis off. He walk. He talks the guy at the

163
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: bottom of the lift. No response, asshole, Come in, asshole,

164
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,640
Speaker 1: Come in, asshole, Come in Jesus. The dude's flowing. The

165
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: coop must have headed down to medical. He decides to

166
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 1: give it five more minutes, then shut her down, make

167
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: the run to the lodge and get this Fiona party

168
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 1: started a little early. Jake looks around for the operator,

169
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: calls out nothing, no one, but the chair is still

170
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: running and it's not quite four o'clock yet, can't be

171
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 1: more than ten of five of it the latest? Fuck it,

172
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 1: He says, Come on, man, let's just do it, and

173
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: he side shuffles on to the ramp and waits for

174
00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: the next chair to sweep him off his feet. That happens

175
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: just a few seconds later, and then he's on his

176
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: way to the summit to the summit to make the

177
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: last run of the day. At the summit, the operator

178
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,480
Speaker 1: doesn't wait five minutes or six minutes. He waits a

179
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: full seven minutes, and then he trains his binoculars on

180
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: the double chairs slowly making their way up the high

181
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: steep part of the mountain. The cables run well over

182
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: one hundred feet off the ground. Once the chairs clear

183
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: the tree line, highest part of any lift on the mountain,

184
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: scary high. Those chairs are way the hell up there,

185
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: high above the receding tree tops. The operator sees the

186
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: empty chairs swaying in the hard northerly wind. The chairs

187
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: are empty, all of them, not a skier in sight.

188
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: He throws the switch, gears grind, and the chair lift stops.

189
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: A nano second after the operator lowers his binoculars and

190
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: throws that switch, one last ski lift rider emerges from

191
00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: the trees and steals himself from the cold, windy ride

192
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 1: to the summit. But then suddenly the lift stops dead

193
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: in its tracks. The chair rocks wildly from side to side,

194
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: and the cable's yo yo up and down, but the

195
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: chair does not move, does not move at all, does

196
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 1: not move Jake even one inch closer to the summit.

197
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 1: The chair sways in the wind, while the snow falls

198
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: faster and the temperature drops, while Jake's buddies party hardy

199
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: at the tech billionaire's multi million dollar ski lodge, while

200
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 1: the dude with the nasty, bloody gash on his palm

201
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: is rushed to the local hospital where the resident on

202
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: duty sews him up with twenty two fine, tight stitches,

203
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:07,319
Speaker 1: while the typically conscientious summit operator skis full tilt to

204
00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: the base, punches the time clock, and scadaddles nothing but

205
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:17,439
Speaker 1: carnal thoughts in his simple primate brain. The wind blows

206
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: and the snow falls, and the temperature's plummet throughout the

207
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: evening and well into the night. Not until morning does

208
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 1: someone finally ask has anybody seen Jake? Thanks for listening
