I'm sure it's a useful metric if one is used to communicating wind conditions in that way, I just have only ever hear it used regularly in the tetons. Does anywhere else use wind run (thanks for the...

Does anywhere use "miles of wind" as a metric besides the tetons?

Guess they'll use the beaver ponds road for access in the meantime?

Edit: Awesome photos too!

It's a janky video grab of an instagram story or something, but i'll see what i can do.

Seeing video now of water well over the road in Yankee Jim. Hydrograph at corwin continuing to climb, but measured discharge down to 48k now (?).

Crazy...

Edit: definitely looks like the...

Maybe Carter's got taken out too?

Man, that's gonna get nasty in Livingston.

51.4 at corwin is damn near unimaginable. That must be hitting the road in the canyon

Was that the article that began, "of course, i bought a pick up truck"? I remember reading such an article as a child and can't, for the fucking life of me, find the article about skiing in Montana.

Haha perfect, thanks!

Welcome to Montana.

MSU housing is the fucking worst.

Do you have an indication of the duration you need? A couple days, the rest of the semester, etc?

Yeah the rut is insane.

Is the NSS totally gone this summer?

Oh the ranch was likely worse, it just in general sucks.

That fucking sucks.

Jeez dire straits.

^that looks awesome!

^the old skinner to the looker's right is now posted and inaccessible? fuck, i didn't know that.

If you have housing sorted out, i bet it's not too difficult to get a job at any of the shops in town.

Or just rack up some debt (PT at a ski shop isn't really gonna pay the school bills anyway)...

It's a shitty commute to work at a ski shop when you could spend that time skiing, partying, studying etc. Why not get a job at one of the places in town you can walk to from campus (if you're...

Working in big sky at a ski shop would suck ass if you're in school in my opinion.

Hey now...

But maybe these warmer winters are your friend then?

Its never even crossed my mind to carry spray mid winter, but they do occasionally wake up i guess esp during warm spells. Wouldn't sweat carrying it if I were you though.

Those are beautiful.

What skis are those on the far right???

Yup. I've doubted bridger on decisions in the past and just feel like if anyone is going to do things right, there's very little in the past to suggest it won't be bridger.



Guess you probably...

I wonder if a typical mid-week day hits 1500

I'm fairly jaded, and I would still say BB midweek is about as fun as resort skiing gets. Busy weekends suck, but I barely waited in a line last year midweek during the holiday period.

If there's one ski area I'd trust to get it right...

That's a big loop, strong work. We used to get so apocalyptically stuck up willow in high school, that road gets gnarly quick if it even gets cloudy.

That'll be sweet. I've never actually fully connected it and don't live in the area anymore, so would be stoked to hear how it is.

or go jackson - willow cr.

That's a rad shot. On a bison carcass?

Damn the north side is still looking tasty.

^i honestly hope these are the things we are thinking about next season

All good points.

Respect.

Little Ellis is always legit.

more skiing pictures.

but i'm just a non-local watching from afar.

actually it's funny watching how much more legit this thread got after the resorts closed.

Cool, access and skiing is typically way better there than in the ab

Edit: took the rest out, any stoke is better than smokeshack stoke

Thanks, usda!

It's a for-profit company with very little invested in the actual community, not sure why everyone is so surprised about this.

getting the thread back on track...

Maybe try calling?

But is that a problem?

Ah, I see Bunion made the point already and much more eloquently.

but holy fuck i bet people had some good runs out there...

Anyone in Bozeman got an extra P18 heelpiece they'd be willing to part with?

Edit: got it sorted. PhD skis still rules.

Do they sell anything else?

The dystopian version failed to say anything about people stealing the ladies off of back porches, so it seems the present is already worse than an imagined future.

Why? To limit crowding?

Yeah, that's been an issue way before ikon.
