They had 4 open today and were training in 1-3. Patrol said you'd need to do some billy goating to get into the gully. Looking up at it from the hike back trail it looks super fun once you're in it.Quote:

pucker for a surburban tool is way different than pucker for a bro.
1” on Snowmass report @ 5am.
3-4” in my yard @ 7 and snowing hard.
See you at the VX. All black on Bent Chetlers.
Just like it always has, long and hanging a little to the left.Quote:

Tomorrow am Beaver Creek and Vail will report 23 hour old snow and the masses will sit hours in traffic to find out that it was all skied off today.

Most of the Gullies have pretty obvious entries from the top or at least a little ways down. If you take those, you'll be good, then you can poke around into other sketchier stuff once you get familiar (and when we get more snow). 3 is probably the trickiest to get into, 2.5 and 5 can also be a little tricky. The old way of doing it where you hiked to the road definitely gave you the advantage of scoping your lines between laps. Not having that now will make it tough for people new to the terrain to figure out a lot of the lines. Should be interesting.Quote:

Outlook doesn't look too good in the long term with factors favouring more snow in the East. Fairly similar to the medium term outlook actually. Looks pretty lacking in decent snowfall.
In terms of skiing this season has been pretty much a total bust in the San Juans. I'm more worried about how terrible the boating season is going to be.

I don't think there could be a better visual representation of this season. Time to pull the snow tires.
EpicPass adding Telluride days for next year, not a ton, but I'm sure some people will be damn happy about it!

Seriously considering this. My hope for winter recovering this season is dwindling.Quote:

I’ve done more exploring than I have in a long time there and I’ still finding some pretty good snow. Also found the newer hut in the Peak 7 area. I’m impressed with the skills of whoever built it.Quote:

Local shop has them for $479 which seems like a good deal and they are pretty much the exact underfoot I am looking for. Anybody ride them?
