Seriously. That crust was gnarly. Funshapes if ya got'em. The guy we saw on Spats (you a mag?) said he was having a good time, but we was struggling.

yeah i can honestly say that was the worst 5" i've ever skied. Granted Jibij and I had a blast on the comedy value alone. We were playing leap-frog crash, just come around the corner, sure to find one us picking ourselved up. I had some good laughs today at how great it looked and how awful it skied.
Don't think the guy on spats was a mag, i've talked with him before in the line up at loveland.
Even in the trees? What about the usually loaded bowl below 4 midway?Quote:

EVERYTHING, we hit all aspects and the best run, which boardered on mediocre was the face. We tried pockets off of every chair in hopes of escaping the crust for a few soft turns.Quote:

skidmark 11's?
Update from today from anyone who went? Still skiing shitty?
Like wise. I ended up skiing with the guy on spats after you guys took off. He is not a mag but it turns out he knows one of my best friends from when they worked at the same hill in Illinoise. Talk about a small world.Quote:

I'll be up Fri and Sun. 9 should be good in spots. They were bombing yesterday afternoon. I have an avy field day on Sat so won't be around.Quote:

Fucking coldest morning I have ever spent on skis today. Finally warmed up a bit at like 11.
Snow was very cold and base grabby until it warmed up. 4 was very fun and smooth once it got chopped up a bit. Tomorrow should be nice and smooth.
bros? no love for the Praxis?Quote:
