Can someone in the know tell us if there are going to be restrictions on hikers tomorrow? The resort was open today, closes for the next three days, then re-opens for Fri,Sat,Sun for those that don't know.

Screw that, let's go to Red Baldy, and ski something we won't be skiing for the next two months.

Indeed. I think we should seriously plan that. Bring headlamps for the exit, ski it at sunset, with the full red glow. I'll be over on Lake Peak, filming you folks skiing it. Originally Posted by Xover

Obivously I thought of that, but this is so much more social. Originally Posted by Xover

See what a nice conversation we're all having?
Visibility is not guaranteed tomorrow, sunset Red Baldy would be tits though. I think I'll have to wait a while longer before I decide what the best place to ski tomorrow will be...

Go somewhere you haven't been.
Just a thought.

I'm in for a Sunset tour Tuesday. Maybe. If I don't wear myself out at the Bird in the morning.
Alta wasn't good today, seriously. By 3 PM, there was only 6" on top of ice, and it wasn't a creamy windblown 6". Needs more snow overnight, and hopefully this storm will deliver.Avoiding the real world since 1979

I like Powstash's thinking. Aim high, if the weather doesn't cooperate, oh well. Better than planning a trip to skip meadows right outta the gait. You can always revert to meadow skipping if the weather is fowl in White Pine. Originally Posted by Xover
