Got a report from some buddies who were there Wednesday that it was a bit boney and needed a few more storms for coverage.

Definitely still a little boney. Winds were ripping yesterday. It's skiable, but you'll find the sharks for sure

Damn people. 4!! skier triggered slides yesterday with an injury and a couple close calls?

Watched a fella skin directly up the kitchen wall & crawl over the cornice, all to ski the professor. No harm done, but raised some eyebrows!

It was. But it was good too. My visit to the county was more fun than my freezing cold desert trip!

Same guy?

Who knows? There's an army of volunteer stability testers these days.

Saw this one today, CAIC says it was yesterday PM http://avalanche.state.co.us/caic/ob...p?obs_id=36543 , it resulted in a search and rescue callout.

Hard to tell from the pics, but there is a deep terrain trap at the bottom. It's a popular 'tabletop' type jump and it appears to have filled. Like most of the slopes on the side of the road, this one has a history.

Always so dramatic. Avalanches. Scary.

[~mikey b]

Thanks for that.

[Lindahl]

On a blue run no less, fucking A that is an unstable snowpack.

Out here we call those double blacks, sir... this is ColoRADo.

[montanaskier]

Looks like some snow the next few days then a big warm dry spell.

[kailas]

Western slope been hi and dry since last storm, plus temps in the 50's at ten thousand feet. Snow has gone to .

[fastfred]

has vail set up a photo op for all the news shows on genesse along I70 to show how much snow has fallen in colorado this thanksgiving, probably a bad idea though with traffic at a stand still

[The SnowShow]

got a nice core shot, double ejected and fell onto some nice rocks on Hyrups on Tuesday. Looked like April out there.

[Fritz]

Found some nice low angle pow in the park today. Still very thin though.

[zartagen]

Good couple of days at vail. The small amounts each night added up to keep everything soft. Pretty cold today, 5 degrees on the hill.

Think the back bowls are close ?

[montanaskier]

I'd guess some stuff is close....the north facing stuff off of 17, and 21 is probably good to go and I'm sure BSB has a lot of ️snow waiting.

The Beav was great this morning. Boot deep cold smoke!

[grskier]

I am behind the desk today but the social mediaz is telling me we under reported at 6"

[skiHOG]

Will confirm that Vail is really good today. The fact it's Monday and cold has kept the place quiet. Zero degrees at the top.

I thought 5 and 17 could've opened last week. Patrol did some blasting in BSB today and lots of backside lifts ran.
