That shit cray. But I'm not understanding what the hell happened. Seems like this dude should have been toast. Did he not get carried? Did he stop at the crown, ski down the slide path and hike back...

Happy I was wrong.

Went up to Rabbit Ears last weekend. The snow quality was actually quite good in areas not continually baked by the sun. Bluebird day, BBQ, and kicker. And hauling ass at 50mph behind a snowmobile....

Did you get in on that Avy course? I'm not sure a Silverton trip is going to to be worth it coming from Denver any time soon. I am keeping my fingers crossed for spring. Best snow in the state is up...

So, you're saying that reports of 183" snowfall YTD and 63" base at Snowbird are as fluffy as the Utah champagne? Same goes for Colorado... For reals, there's a junior freeski comp at Snowbird this...

Anyone skiing Snowbird lately? Is there a Utah Alta/Snowbird conditions thread that I don't know about?

My suggestion would be to go to a shop and try on a 27.5 garmont if you can. The sole length is 306mm. What's the SL on your current boots?
...

A 27.5 would be a good fit for you in a touring boot. I have a 10.5 shoe, ski. 26.5 in a performance fit, and a 27.5 for a touring boot.

Is it snowing yet?

bump.

Nobody? I toured Uneva peak and Jones pass last weekend solo. Luckily on jones I hooked up with a crew with sleds and actually got some skiing in.

This weekend it's East Vail chutes and...

Senor Gratzo, I guess the Snotel site doesn't publish exact coordinates; I just punched what was there into google maps. Thanks for the correction - that makes a difference. And yeah, that graph is...

I was bored at work so...

This is a seasonal graph of snow depth for the Vail Mountain Snotel site which is located at the top of Vail Mountain here: http://goo.gl/maps/kaSAJ

I like it when they shout. It turns me on.

Sweet! I want some of that action; and fewer 4 mile skins up a road for 200ft vertical runs.

Did 2 tours this weekend, Uneva Peak and Jones Pass. Got to the base of the peak of Uneva on the S ridgeline above the bowl. Peered over to the East and SE aspects - that side looks awesome - and the...

No good. Any suggestions? I assume a generally sketchy snowpack...

What does Vail Pass/Uneva Peak look like?

I'm pretty sure all the base reports are BS. Silverton reports a 40" base and I'm skiing ankle deep on Rope-de 4 and willows in the gullies. Not to say it wasn't fun.

Vail Pass tomorrow.

Looking for people to go BC with in Colorado this season. I live in Denver and am generally a weekend warrior. I have BC experience and avy 1, and if I'm riding lifts it's because I have a Silverton...

A day late. Dammit. What's tomorrow going to be like? Anyone want to show around a couple foreigners with fat skis this week?

so much for my magic 8 ball. see you tomorrow!!!

Yeah, Colorado is getting hammered right now and it will continue. Most resorts still have a 20" base. Maybe there will be some skiable terrain when I get back from Whistler on the 28th.

arriving the 21st, skiing the 22nd to the 27th. Is it snowing up there? looks sweet based on the photos above, but my 8 ball says forecast does not look good.

Checked my boots with my ski bag through United for the first time on the way back from Seattle yesterday. No prob. Always used to carry them on. The agent has to verify that you're checking boots at...

Mt. Brighton is in serious need of some TLC. Twas my home mountain for many years - I think it will be good.

If you're going to ski Silverton keep their calendar in mind, they're only open Thursday - Sunday. Though they will be open Monday Feb 18th. You could get 4 good days there before heading to Tride if...

I bought these at the end of the 2008 season. I've probably spent 10 days in them so they're very lightly used. Super comfy, just too big for my feet. I ski a race fit 26.5 alpine boot - I just got...

Cameron's weather station is giving bad data! 108" Looks like it's about 55"
Still some of the deepest in the state so far.

I am an Environmental Engineer, and I am familiar with the concepts thank you.

:cool:haha, yeah my attemt was thwarted by a stuck vehicle. I drove up as fas as I could to find a blazer stuck in the snow, pulled him out, parked, made the approach and got socked in, on my way out...

thanks! 14ers.com has awsome descriptions and forecasts. werd up.

Nice, thanks, that will help me with my O-chem finals. Did you put in the right link?

I guess its off TGR but the CAIC has detailed descriptions of many of the slides that happen every year...

Yo, looking for reports on current 14er conditions. Heading for a 4/21 overnighter, and I cant see very well from out here in the front range. So if you have info on Holy Cross, anything in 10mile,...
