Our saving grace, they buff the WC course every day and nobody's on it, the first couple of hours, but me.
And if you didn't have a quiver (and went out with your good skis), you'd soon have one :rolleyes:Quote:

Skied almost a 1000 vert (of hideous windboard) without hitting rocks or roots today (unless you count skinning over a few gravel patches). Woohoo! Felt like an accomplishment considering all the brown out there. This bit was so soft I felt like I'd been transported to Hokkaido:

At least going uphill was nice. Was able to break loose some new windslab stomping on some North and Northeast facing test slopes near the treeline. These were isolated slabs that weren't there two days ago. Nothing that propagated, but worth noting.
Random question: SIA is open to the public, correct? And OR is not? Both are in Denver later this month, at the same time...anyone know how it’s all going to work?
Thought I would share a few pics from Vail today. I’ve been skiing there for a long time and don’t think I’ve ever seen this much dirt in January. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e7e5200df.heichttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...115e12941.heichttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...37db635d9.heichttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...212c8aba0.heic
The last one is from the bottom of the new northwoods lift. Those are blocks of snow/ice that they are using to hold up the poles for the lift maze b/c there is not enough base to drill down into.

Got my first day in. Three sweet runs at Eldora with most of Boulder in attendance (or so it seemed). My kid rocked it.
It won't be open to the public. They're just combining them into one big trade show.Quote:
