Come on kids make some better tracks......
E-tow looks so dang close to WC in this pic. Certainly the best cabin on the mountain.
^^^ agree. Unbelievable that it took until the last day of winter to get Super Bowl and WC open.
Yall want to yell at someone, yell at the Forest Service. They require a snow road of a certain caliber to that terrain. It's why porcupine and WC aren't open yet, because there's just not enough snow to cover the tundra.
Uhhhh.... Super Bowl/WC/Porcupine saddle used to open all the time when there was not enough snow to create a cat road across the top.Quote:

And there used to be smelters in the heart of downtown Aspen. Things change. What was your point again?Quote:

What’s the excuse in the north direction? Plenty of snow for a “road” towards Marmot and 13,010’.Quote:

Also, the road is already established for north gates as best as possible where there is snow. It also comes down lookers right of Rock Chutes. There were patrol tracks the other day on Field of Dreams, some markers & ropes are already set for east of north gate #2. Clock is ticking.
With new snow coming in tonight, I doubt WC much less Chair 9 will be open tomorrow.Quote:

This is spot on. I still have fun every time I ski there. :DQuote:

Some of the terrain reminds me of Resolution Bowl at Copper (but less steep). The novelty of finding stuff barely touched after noon was not lost on me.
I’d agree some of the new stuff could be thinned, but I felt the same way about the Beavers first time I skied them. Would be $$ with the right conditions.

I've skied back there a couple of different days. One was early season before any bumps formed and it was deep powder, so fun. The last time I went It was all bumped up (not in the woods) and the shapes of the bumps were so gawdawful that I got mad and left. You guys have inspired me to ski in those woods again. Yes they are tight. There is also a mank factor to consider, but a cold and cloudy new snow day could be fine.
That's a mouth full.......;);):DQuote:
