Thanks for the beta all! Will drop a line when we're in town, get some laps in. Fingers crossed for snow...
You clearly have never driven that road in a snowstorm. But that's ok, you and the shopping town gapers wouldn't ski my lines anyway. Carry onQuote:

You're right, I tend to avoid the green runs.Quote:

That'd be Alain kook. You should ski with him down Al's after a 2'+ storm when the upper mtn doesn't open right away. You might learn something.Quote:

Does Taos have a run named the K12?

def worth a visit to the loretto chapel if you are in santa fe. cool story.
We were at Santa Fe today ( traffic was an ungodly shitshow but the snow was LeTits), and I was riding up with a guy from Taos. He said this season was really weird so far in that the big snow bands are missing TSV and hitting SF….18 inches in the last two days at SF, and apparently Tottenhof’s is a fucking rave spot now… Whatevs, hope byates intel is correct. TSV is the shit.
TSV def getting missed. Still 4-6 last couple days. Another.4-8 tomorrow, another few small shots later this week
Def refreshed all man made. Steep not at all ready unless.you are a reckless young buck then have at it.
It'll be filled in by the end of March.
Best time to go, IMHOQuote:

Right on brother. I'll be back at big sky April 1. Come on up!
Word.
I just put in my notice and am skiing this season.
I'm booked in Silverton March 28-30.
Was thinking Big Sky early March, JH later March.
Other than Silverton I'm flexible.
^ see.. this is the way ppl! Grab life by the nuts and get some! FKNA.mister.
Hike-to steeps appear open between Twin Trees all the way to St Bernie's on West Basin. How's any of that skiing, still bony or...?
Headed there late next month, stoke is very, very high.
Skied a Juarez yesterday. Looked good, punchy and grabby over rocks. Getting better daily though.
Wind hold today. Basically closed. Storm day tomorrow 4-8 ish.
Alain s birthday today. Got og bodes and katanas mounted. Stoked.
The chicks are popping off this week. 4 so far. Jesus. Taos ftw.
The open terrain is still bony in spots but filling in decently well. Unfortunately, we've had a bunch of upslope wind since the last storm, so different aspects are either getting scoured or developing a windskin or slab, especially near ridgeline. Still some good turns to be had, but they're in some unusual spots...
^ let's spin some laps. Let me know when on the hill..
