    Pre-snowboard Taos Summit

    So as most of you have heard...Taos finally fell. March 19th the legacy ends. So... whos interested in doing a pre-snowboard summit up there before it happens? I know February is usually when they get the most snow, but who knows with the strange nature of this season so far? Opinions? Suggestions? Eh?

    I'm in, February through March is usually prime time for Taos. Though it's looking pretty good right now.........

    February looks pretty open as far as events go. Superbowl weekend (Feb. 2nd-3rd) would be nice since the crowds will be down.

    March is a bit more crowded. Salomon Freeride is the 6th-8th and I'm sure spring break is kickin in after that.

    I'll probably be down there on the 22nd for the spring beer fest, but that's after the fall....

    My vote is for Feb or during the Salomon comp.

    GREAT NEWS!!!!!
    About F---ing Time
    Now we just have to get Alta to see the light
    Honestly, the you guys can keep Deer Valley, I'd rather ride the Canyons or Park City anyway.
    I just hope the first groups of riders in the door dont make asses out of themselves and give us all a bad name.

    They are probably going to be dudes from NM and Texas. Good luck with that.
