Loveland set to open busy gully and tigers tail. Had to dip before the ropes dropped. Still rock ski skiing, but damn good to feel some fresh. A dozen laps on Cats and a dozen laps of pow bumps on nix nox and my legs are toast.

I think I ran into a mag at the bar but I forgot to get your name. Free The Pow wearing people are always mags.

Christmas is ruined. The rain has made everyone head to city market for group shopping instead of skiing. At least there is no lines

I measured 6 inches at Eagle's nest from today, but there were also deeper drifts and bare spots as it got a little windy this afternoon. Things are looking up a little.

Was pretty dope! Game creek opening was awesome, although a little bit of a shit show. I caught a nice rope drop on a run off of Avanti too.

Thanks for the heads up about 11, but I was way too tired after shredding pow all morning.
