Looks like another shot of snow coming through starting late morning/early afternoon tomorrow. Best skiing probably to come Monday...anyone want to make some bc turns? I have to work from about 5:30am-7 or 7:30am, so I won't be able to do dawn patrol...but I can still get started fairly early.
I'm up for something. I got the freerides and need to get some time on them. How about berthoud? Or whatever you had in mind
Got your PM...replied back. :biggrin:Quote:

My skeeze are in the shop getting mounted up... NEW/USED carbon surfs. I could boot back some snowboard action at Berthoud. Vicous, you're a boot-pack only guy right?
I have skins/trekkers, but tend to boot pack more often than not.Quote:

Yeah, let's do the boot pack dawn patrol... as long as you don't mind being seen w/ a snowboarder.
I can meet as early as you want... gotta roll by 9am.
hmm...afternoon area snow reports and snotel sites are less than exciting. Given really strong winds today wreaking havoc on windward aspects and creating windpacked slabs of 1-2 feet on the lee aspects, along with what will likely be a quick warm-up tomorrow, I'm wondering if it's worth getting out tomorrow... Not trying to be Debbie Downer...just thinking realistically here... ;)
Thoughts?
I'd be up for the Basin + treed side country or just pali laps. CAIC is forcasting temps 22-27 manana
Many spots at berthoud were $$$$ today. Full on dumpage this morning, probably 3-4 inches in less than 2 hrs. 80's/90s hucks pretty much fully covered and good to go. Im down for tommorow.
Vicious send me a PM lets git after it tommorow....
Indeed, but their snowpack discussion also indicated: "By Monday a rapid warm-up could stress the new snow/old snow bond, so a good chance of a brief increase in avalanche danger is possible Monday."Quote:

Maybe I'll still make it up there around 9-9:30am when I get done working. Since you guys will be sticking to the bootpack, I'll keep an eye out in the lot between laps and ask for change.Quote:

Z are you thinking berthoud tomorrow? Scott would you be cool with that? 80-90s and floral and such should be $$$$Quote:

Tru the rapid change could cause issues, but at least it won't be wet.Quote:

What time are you guys meeting up there? Maybe I can catch everyone to start the day if you're getting a little later start, or if I don't get there until after your meet time, I'll keep an eye out for you in the lot between laps. You should still bring those freerides, Fritz...if the pack seems ok, I'd be up for going a little further out.
Still waiting for a message back from Z so right now it's you and me at 9ish. There should be plenty to entertain us up there tomorrow
9:00 is unlikely...9:30 probably at the earliest, could easily be more like 10:00 the more I think about it. I'm hoping to leave the office by 7:30, but I'll have to drive across town from Aurora...which is the worst time of the day to do so.Quote:

if someone wants A-Basin or Summit BC PM me
Probably later this week... :biggrin:Quote:
