Also had a great afternoon at burd. Place is riding pretty good, lots of fun hits everywhere. Gad valley is a bigger, rockier place than it gets credit for imo.

Truth be told, by 11:30 the singles line was only a 10 minute wait, and by 2:30 there were no lines. Killer day all things considered. Tonight’s forecast looks wild. Wild enough that I decided to take advantage of early season rates and sprung for a night at GMD.
glad to see the Alta and Bird crews gettin sum
Basin was great, skied with NBABUCKS and a non mag buddy, soft turns and untracked snow even with very limited terrain options
We need more lifts open...

We were getting turns by 1030 after the lifts started spinning. Bombed straight over to Sugar and had some amazing runs. No lines when we arrived so did a few laps then over to Collins. Don’t think I waited more than 5 mins in singles line. All afternoon I was eating my skis through tracked out low but still incredibly soft. Really really really good day.

It's a screenshot of a video, get over it.
I'm pretty tall and the snow today was over my head multiple times, did not expect this at all, wow.

Here is a nice little clip celebrating what was the epic end to last season. Interlodge. Hell yeah

Can confirm, Alta was firing. Once crowds got on, lifts were quick if not non existent around 2.
Let the chaff uncover the rocks at the start, took the little guy skiing at Albion from 9-11 then went and closed it down.
Exit was cruiser.
LESSS GOOOO

Looking like another late opening shitshow at Alta....anyone braving the wait up there?
Wish there was a webcam on Collins which updated more often

No Snowbird today.
Plenty of people waiting in line around Collins and Kitty.
I waited at gad the whole time. It was a bummer but the vibe never soured too bad in the line. I've never seen so many snowballs thrown before and I've had a few long waits in that line.
I think everyone was just happy to watch the hill filling in, I was

No Snowbird while Collins/Kitty spin is frustrating. But, yeah, just glad we're building base.
You aren’t missing anything. Just did one at Alta and it’s like skiing an inch. Lots of wind transport and we are roped up to Fred’s and mambo on Collins

Got to the lower Gad lot at 8:40, booted up and chilled in the truck. Bout 11:20 we see the stream of people walking back to the lot, got the push notification a couple minutes later.
It was probably a good thing as when booting up I noticed my shell overly flexing, freaking boot pivot came apart. Stopped by the SFB basement shop on the way down and hopefully have a replacement piece.

Bird didn’t open because Daltons slid almost all the way to the creek. TFW can chime in, but I don’t think that’s happened very many times. I’d say that’s the right call by snowbird to keep it closed. The lack of pre season ski tourers mixing up the snow is killing them.
Also snow like today is why everyone should own a pair of reverse camber reverse sidecut skis.
Watch yer topknot fellers...
