I’ve been in the snowbird lot at 6:30 the past 12 days due to the kids ski racing camp. The sheer volume of our of state plates makes me very sad (California is most represented). If they could just stop being dick heads to the parking guys it would go a lot better....

Definitely not. That was from last year’s 50 hour Interlodge. Both dudes were in the GMD. Evan made a dub-over of hitlers rant in Inglorious Bastards about it. Lemme see if I can find it...Quote:

Made the walk up to Broads Fork, hoping Bonkers was going to be good. It wasnt. It was a long bushwack, to really bad wind hammered snow, to flat bushy snow, to rocky snow, to brushy snow, to carry your skis out adventure snow. Lessons learned, snow is in need. The top of bonkers actually slid a ways from the cliff band looks left. I would think BCC needs like 4 feet of snow before I head back up there. The day was beautiful though and laughs were had.

COVID, 30 minute lift lines, full parking lots, 20-30” base, dangerous backcountry conditions, 50-60% of normal snowpack...Let’s hope for better things to come in 2021. Happy New Year maggots.

The curse of New Jersey shredder Tom "Da Squid" Calamari is still in full effect it seems. Greatest skier to ever grace LCC though.Quote:

I'm blacked out, but a buddy told me that on Tuesday there were well over 1000 people crowding the small space where Frostwood and Silverload converge.
Skinned up this morning (which was fun), took a few laps when the lifts started spinning but the lines were stacked and I left (still fun, because skiing, but not fun enough to keep me there). When I left I couldn’t believe the line of cars coming in. Drove by again about 30mins ago and seems to be settling down - I probably just hit the morning crowd skiing before the NYE drinks start flowing.Quote:

Question
Is KTS the GSA?
Alright thanks. Hoping to get an earlyish start tomorrow am while most folks are still sleeping off their hangover. Expectations are low, just want to rip some groomers with the wife.Quote:

Sitting down to a shot and dinner with the better half and the Cantin's at their place at the Inn.
Kids were all over the globe.
Had the radio on 'cause it was storming.
Call comes in from Villa.
"Just got hit, moved, and buried by a slide in Mineral".
He's in a snowcat.
Fuck, eh?
Looked at my boots, looked at the shot, took the shot, put on my boots, and said good night.
Start of a wild night.
Shoulda stolen that bottle...
Happy New Year, all.
Let's hope 2021 is built for us optimists.

Crossed michigan angling for Davenports cabinline got whumphs and shooting cracks through solar crusts on SW aspects in thin snow so bailed and got a decent one down city rocks. Good first real tour of the season.

Went up White Pine to Tri Chutes and had a much different result than yesterday. Made 6 laps up there, the WSW face to lookers left of the Chutes was firing, fresh soft turns down the whole thing. As evidenced in the pictures.
