Spring conditions but clouds rolling in
was it getting wet/mushy in the trees? Just trying to figure out if the stuff we get tonight will be on top of a rock hard refrozen base or if the trees will still be good.
^^^ a bit soft is spots south facing trees but everything else was wind swept to KS and ice over packed man made. best line was psychopath bumps skiers right in the shade, salto was fun, the run out sucked.
no complaints from me, got work done this morning, knocked out laps and back home to finish up. plan on rock hard refrozen base, you can never go wrong and adjust from there.
plan on being up in morning, conf calls drive up and in lot so will miss the first few laps, will let you know when up.
Looking good, for tomorrow. I'll be up there. I just looked at the parking, and you can get a spot on the app, but not the website.
Clusterfuck indeed.

In other news the shit show was in full
Effect at corona chair by 1030. Most of the front range showed up.
Wildman, must have missed you, was there too. Good morning. But definite shit show.
Looks like you got it good in Salto wild, well done!
Great laps Danno! Conf call success in CO sun with cold beer.
The inclement weather office is good to go.....

Hawk is that in placer? Danno I must have missed the fact that you were coming! Sorry mang. Next time fo sho!
I had the same view as Danno coming in. It took an hour to get up shelf rd. The bus even got stuck.
Hawk you'll have to show me your secret texting spot some time. I had service but I couldn't get one out, no matter how many times I tried.
It was a good one. Best run I had was down Placer. It was mostly untracked, if you went far enough over. Salto was fun too, but you guys mostly beat me to it. Glad the trees are finally getting good.
I'm heading back up in a bit with the kid, if anyone else wants to join us for some kid skiing.
no worries; would be good to make some turns this year! And while I didn't hit that shack yesterday, hawk has taken me there and shown me the secret handshake, it is not in Placer.Quote:

I would be up for a Wed mini.
Been rough year at Eldora, think that makes 4-5 fatalities this season.
Bad few days for Eldora. Hope you guys are staying safe, out there.
I saw they also had a power failure, and closed early.
It was a 16-year old that died this morning, ugh ugh ugh and both boarders died on the trail. I cannot imagine Patrol and everyone involved going through that twice in such a short time. So sorry for all.
Looks like a little snow, tomorrow. I think I'll be able to make it up for a few hours, if anyone else wants to ski.
