    To be fair, 1 is really the only thing worth skiing on a 20" day besides the ridge. And I agree re:HSQ. It is nice on chalky days when you can kill your legs in 2 hours.

    Fuck are the windslabs and storm slabs up there going to be crazy.

    I've never seen so many people lose skis. I musta passed like at least 20 peeps searching for 1 or 2 skis. I even lost one and ragdolled after passing someone probing for a lost ski. That snow was, cakey

    Flat, and DEEEEEP. fucking Epic
    the drugs made me realize it's not about the drugs

    Mrs Beece says she is constantly skiing past people stuck in snow everywhere. Just chaos. Sounds hilarious. I'm still jealous.

    285 starting to back up, smooth sailing in the Denver area, might just ski the I25 off ramps.

    Because some people like skiing and are willing to wait for a ride out of the base area. Everything else was on wind hold and they couldn't get to a different ski area.

    Jesus -- sometimes I think people on this forum like bitching about skiing more than skiing.
