Wow that's Grandview!? Hardly recognize it. Sad to see all that old growth wiped out.

How's the coverage been holding up with all the sun and warm temps?

I've been out this month recovering from a concussion, I thought for sure that would mean epic dumpage...what gives?

Super fun event to watch, great way to breath life back into the X Games. Henrik's switch frontflip is unreal!

A dedicated thread to show off a clip of low angle terrain filmed by selfie stick, you're just asking to get flamed.

I wanna be a hater like the cool kids but dammit if that pow doesn't...

Cloudy calm day at Squaw. Groomers were soft and fast, off piste was slightly variable but everything was edgeable. Great base for the tiny refreshers the next few days, if they're not too warm....

Super cool. Keep it up!

Wow tragic news at Alpine, makes me sick to my stomach. Stay safe out there y'all.

Squaw was deepo in many spots today but still a surprising amount of ice and rock lurking beneath. Interesting...

I kept waiting for the epic fail on both of those, especially the hill bomb, and it never came. Fucking sick!

What I expected (and secretly hoped for)...

First year with an Ikon pass, haven't been able to get out much yet this season but digging Squalpine in the winter so far (previously only ridden in spring/summer). So. Much. Terrain. Trying to get...

The potential for a sleeper pow day was there...but alas, the storm underperformed and its dust on crust at Kwood this morning

Kirkwood yesterday was great, the wind filled in tracked out areas surprisingly well. Gonna brave the crowds tomorrow, hopefully it's not too wet.
Small vid from yesterday

Season extended at Vail resorts by 1 week, woohoo! Now they're only open 11 weeks less than Squaw! And ∞ less weeks than Mammoth!

80 closed all day, 88 carson pass closed all day, 50 open with no chain controls. What the hell?

What board are you on in that vid, kungpow? Looks fat!

Depends on where and how you ride. Do you ride fast and aggressively? Or need more float? Go bigger.
Do you ride slower or more casually or frequently ride tight trees? Error on the smaller side....

Hahaha what? How does her explanation not make sense?
He probably said in response, "Don't fuck with me Karen, I've seen the summer mogul storage warehouses...now tell me, how do they make the...

Lots of fresh tracks were had today at KW

Peep their conditions twitter, they opened today https://twitter.com/KWconditions
Which sucks cause I'm heading there tomorrow, grr why couldn't they have stayed closed today like everyone else...

I ride softies, never ridden hardboots but I'm intrigued by them. Tools (hardboots) vs toys (softboots) as I've heard. My current stance is +27+12 or so and I ride all mountain. Pow, bumps, trees,...

I was at KW yesterday it was packed in the well traveled areas (still nice and soft, I didn't find firm snow anywhere). Only a little ways off the beaten path (I mainly hit wagon wheel bowl and...

I headed to Kirkwood yesterday, but when it was apparent 88 was not gonna open for a long while I hightailed it to Heavenly. Didn't get there until 10, I had no idea where to go (first time at the...

Always love your info and charts, Ben! With the average snow level rising every year, I assume snowfall below 500m has become rarer over the years? (I have no data just shitty memory to go off, so I...

I've only started driving 88 to kirkwood this season so I'm sure there are others more knowledgeable about the drive and pass operations but here's my experience.

I've successfully driven there...

"Snow levels lowering to 4,000 feet Sunday, 3,500 feet Sunday night, 2,500 feet Monday, and possibly down to sea level by the end of Tuesday morning!"

We're still talking about housing? BA is talking of SEA LEVEL snow levels and we're still talking about housing?! When was the last time we had a storm this cold? 10/11? Before that even?
Beyond...

Fun in the sun at Kirkwood today, snow softened up nicely as it warmed. Not that it was very icy to begin with, still pretty wintry out there.
It's my first season at the wood, I looked at some...

Monday is looking fantastic. Sunny with 2ft of blower, could be the best day of the season thus far. It's guaranteed to be actually, cause I'll be working.



Pleeeeaase let this happen at...

Damn, got shut down trying to drive to Kirkwood on 88 this morning, spur still closed with no eto. It was open to eastbound traffic when I checked at 5. At least I don't have to deal with the holiday...

Snow levels look decent according to BA

"Thursday heavy snow continues with snow levels falling to around 4,500 feet by late afternoon...Then snow showers Thursday night taper off by Friday...

Man south lake got robbed on yesterdays storm! Oh well Kirkwood was plenty deep today for a storm that's just getting rollin'. Hoping tonight/tomorrow lives up to the hype.

Wtf hopefully she lets the cat out at the top? Is this custom or do they sell these hard shell glossy sea foam green dome port equipped deluxe cat carriers someplace? Perhaps at, say, Petsmart?...

Hype in what way? Obviously Squaw is a rad mtn, I think that's universally known. But it has it's share of clusterfucks and mismanagement (At least I've heard the last few years...I don't go there...

A few clips from the little sleeper pow day Wednesday. The wet snow just did not want to part from the gopro lens.

Next week looking killer! The...

Agreed. Not a lot of s/r levels in the 4.5k ish to 6k ish range, and btc hasn't yet tested 6k after plunging through it Nov 14, so it could hit 6k quick. Could be a great long to 6k and/or short at...

Wet, low vis, soggy pow day at Kirkwood...it was great! I don't know how deep it was (5in reported overnight but it snowed all day) but the snow had no business feeling as bottomless as it did. Wet...

Wow was Kirkwood crowded today!
Makes sense I guess, Sunday and all. But I can't believe how many people showed up given the poor weather and road conditions.
I got stuck behind the 88 closure...

70 inches?! Yes Please.

I'm probably, no, definitely, lame for saying a studio track is my favorite dead song...but the studio Help On The Way/Slipknot!>Franklins Tower is just so good!

Technically 2 maybe even 3 songs...

My first bike/first ride with full suspension, 27.5 wheels, a dropper post, among other things. I could go into detail about my experience but since I'm late to the modern mtb party I'll summarize in...

They call that a trailer? Where were the triple corks?

I haven't ridden any of the boards you've listed so I can't speak from experience but I would go for the tried and true hovercraft, I've heard lots of great things about it.

I wouldn't worry...

Do yourself a favor and get a shorter stem!

Bummed I missed out on 10 hours of KT today! Oh well heading to Squaw tomorrow, fingers crossed for a solid freeze tonight...



Uh, creeper much? :tongue:
