I saw that Crazy Karl is bowing out this year.

I agree that it's a weird competition.
It seems good on paper but there are so many crashes that it gets kind of old. although super exciting when people land something.
People also complain that the couloir is closed so much of the season when they are trying to preserve the snow in there for the comp.
That said, I watched and enjoyed it today

Veronica Paulsen said she became sponsored after winning in 2020, so it can be more than prize money. I hope she’s ok after being sledded out today.
Veronica: small sternum fracture and major whiplash. She'll be damn sore for a while but will be ok.
I’ll be back in town, looking to do some pass laps next week if anyone wants to get out..
Also, anyone potentially know of a local bootfitter who would throw non-Fischer boots in the vacuum? Feel free to pm on that one..

Rolling into town Monday night with the Mrs and the dog, making turns all week. Good looking setup! Boooo yaaaa
YOLO, heading up tomorrow. Girlfriend and I will be skiing thru Sunday. She's an ripper, I try to keep up.
If anyone else can ski during the week and wouldn't mind some company PM me. Djongo I'll text you.
Staff of veracity was looking mighty swell at the 'Ghee. Tear it up.
In typical fashion it dumps the day we leave town (last Thursday). Made for a fun drive. 70F and sunny in AZ.
PM for address where you can send thank you cards

Pick a day and c'mon babybear.

I can confirm with photo and video evidence that this weekend was pretty great. Had a great tour Sunday with Panchosdad and Criscam where every lap was better than the last. We intended to go again yesterday but my lower back chose to keep me couch bound for a minute. But yeah, lots of pow turns Saturday and Sunday.
Double banger POW DAY!
JFC, has February been epic or what?
128" in 18 days.
The bowl was honking this morning. I love it.
Face splashes every turn in a gotdam sideways whiteout. Sorry I didn't wait for you Lindsay, I was taken for 50 pop and splash boottoppers. What a hoot.
Lost a ski today over in Expert chutes. Far skiers left as far left as you can ski before they have the closed cliff signs. Last day of my trip, hasn’t turned up at lost and found. Looked all over, but likely well beneath the snow, or it slid over into the cliff area and down below.
Twenty-Seventeen Moment Meridian, one-eighty seven length, mounted with green pivot eighteens at rec. long shot, but if any locals manage to find them I would be through the moon. They are by far my favourite ski.
Happy to provide the GoPro clip of exactly where it happened.
Update: FOUND

FKNA is right. One of the best in bound days I have had in a long time. Upper mountain skied well all day. We hit Laramie bowl early and had some waist deep turns. Trees held the goods throughout the days. Kids didn’t complain and ripped all day. Thanks Jackson.

I’m taking my son down for the Targhee freeride comp on Saturday. I don’t really want to buy tickets for Sunday and it looks warm. I’d love to take him out for a tour. Anyone willing to share a good tour where we could ski something fun and north facing? Feel free to put it in a PM.

Going to pass through the hole on a long road trip in March. Any reason not to stay at the hostel in the village? I will be living in my car for the preceeding 2 weeks, sleeping in resort lots. The person I am hooking up with there is not down with incognito camping in ski lots for some strange reason. Open to other recommendations for non-vehicular lodging if you have em.
Hike up Glory and head north. You can keep going for about 5 bowls if you want. Some steep terrain, especially right off the top of Glory, but should be good stability by the weekend. I'll be at the comp picking up after the carnage. Pretty fun watching these kids get after it.
Sorry, thought I was replying to Shredeagle. This forum is so glitchy.
Thanks to both of you. I think we are going to do the Glory bootpack. That should give us lots of options. I think I sent you a PM east or bust, but who knows. Things are tricky these days!
Maybe I'll see some of you at the comp.
