Its bad enough when insults fly between fellow skiers of the same area.
Now keyboard jockeys from distant lands dump their own spite into the Wasatch morass.
Pathetic.
Pardon the interruption, but want to thank Tuco for donating the Hellbent for the new shotski at Magic. DoWork got it done and we just christened it.
Thanks Tuco!![]()
North facing, not the Solitude slack country sorry.

Wasatch powder turds landed on Dutches draw today.It was busy, with probably 100ppl an hour going out the 9990 gate. This strikes me as an incredibly unsafe practice, and unneighborly.
They proceeded to take their guest down "tree-time" which was completely tracked up garbage that we haven't bothered to ski in days. I'd be fucking pissed if I was a paying guest, but I have a feeling they were doing "freebies" so industry suck-ups and assholes can blog about how awesome they are for heli-skiing
they also congregated for high fives and hot cocoa in the bottom of the slide path, considering alll the tourist from texas dropping in on them on conehead it didn't seem like the safest place to stop.
it was surreal...
Tough to tell, but you can see the prop wash on the ridgeline
Fuck them. I left this review on their FB page:
"Thanks for landing on us today on the Dutch draw ridgeline. ....A real neighborly, and safe practice on a crowded ridge that likely had over a hundred exits/hr out of the 9990 gate. You proceeded to take your guest down a tracked up slope, and used unsafe travel practices.
Overall, I have to give you one star, but I'd rather give you one finger and file a complaint with the FAA."
Subtle enough?
Ps.I realize no one gives a shit about Dutches, but this is just fucking wrong. Is there any recourse I can take? file a FAA complaint? Shame them on FB? Dog shit under the door handle of their helo?

flounder pounder - you chair riding sidecountry poser faggot!!! keep me and mine out of your cocksucking mouth!!!! the plow and seed crew from turquoise will fat pipe stank on your fresh bunt caked bitch!!!
Figure 8 Hill and North and NE facing runs off the ridge to Patsey Marley stayed powdery and without any warming or sun damage yesterday (Fri. 3/7). Cool temperatures and only intermittent sun break throughs helped a lot to keep the 5"-6" of new snow dry. Went there after seeing a photo posted by SFB from last Monday. Also tried to go there on Tues. with a group of 3, but we backed off due to extremely flat light that day. Yesterday had pretty decent lighting and much more new snow than Tues.
Saw 3 guys looking back up at their tracks from the bottom of Pressure Drop (or maybe Big Bang -- they didn't know what they had skied) chute that starts just a tad West of the summit of Wolverine (did not see them skiing it). I talked to them at the skin up start below Twin Lakes Pass. They were from Vancouver, BC. They came here to ski because they say the Pacific NW coastal areas is having a shitty year. One of them had skied Blackcomb back-country a few days ago and said it was pretty bad. Interior BC was better though not great they said.

Superior March 5th awesomeness
Warm on the skin up from Alta at 9. Wasatch powderkeg had everyone lycraed out at brighton so it was surprisingly empty in the sheep pen. 2 leisurely laps in east bowl and one cabin ridge run. No pits dug but everything on N faces was pretty much green light and some nice surface hoary turns in the trees. No instabilities noted and cold dry snow on the N end of the compass where I skied. On the exit around 2 cut above a suspect convexity and my sluff pulled out a wet slab below me about 40 feet across and it went probably 300 feet really slow. Watch out on the late exits. Oh and superior is tracked the fuck out.
Skintrack stoke
Not phone cords
