National Ski Patrol is 70

A funny story goes with this picture we took this weekend to honor NSP's 70th. While patrolling with a colleague during the Christmas vacation a year ago, a couple of young girls came up to us and asked us if we were the, "Plus Guys." They thought our white crosses were plus signs. Since then, we are now referred to as the "Plus Guys." In honor of NSP's 70th, we decided to do a little NSP math using "Plus Guys."

Enjoy the pic- feel free to pass it along, publish it, or just laugh.
