kinda luckily got first chair up peak. there were a few snowboarders standing at the front not realizing that the chair was open so we skied right by

bottomless blower in so many areas.. Apruary...

A lot of those jordan falls happened on one day, about 2 weeks ago (the one where the dude got his ski stuck up there). That was the worst conditions I had seen jordan.. rocks and ice. But I agree,...

nice.. ya that pattison 'wedge' is a good steepness. man.. that wind was brutal on ridgelines. Bootpack ridge was probably the worst wind I've been in.. ice pellets smashing into your face at...

yep that is us. 3 of us were doing the traverse, 3 others were skiing Hourglass. We saw you guys poking around up there and wondering what you were up to. Saw you try to go up to the top of...

>1 m crown on SE face of Iago from the last week or two. otherwise things were looking great around the Spearhead. breaking trail most of the way sucks though. my legs hurt. TR to come

what are you thinking? either way, we'll no doubt see ya at the t-bar again!

it was hilarious.. I was right beside the guy leading the charge for the snowball fight, and the second guy that tried to jump line (have a good vid of it I'll add to my year-end vid).
So I saw the...

any rumours on further alpine for tomorrow? could see it going either way with a bunch more snow and supposed gusts to 60k..

another kickass day of bottomless. chose blackcomb and very glad of it thanks to glacier opening. lone pine was quite fun

bottomless.

never been up when they completely shut down the mountain like that. Parked in creekside so I couldn't even ski to the village without having to bus back! but man, wicked couple laps on big timber...

..could we have another epic week coming up??

Spearhead/Corona was quite nice today. I like skiing

7th opening was fun.

true.. but with the amenities that they are supposed to have, I imagine a lot will still go for it. I'm not complaining since I'll be using them as well, but I'm just glad I've done the traverse...

or, you mean, it will be even more of a gong show. more people back there that possibly shouldn't be

same thing happens all season long up to east col, spearhead, and backside of flute... should be a requirement imo.

hiked all weekend starting with crystal, then 7th, then blackcomb glacier.. at's are being replaced so it was all bootpacking. gorgeous weekend, unreal snow.. can't ask for much better.

Also, dug...

ski down to base 2 was iffy.. rock skis+
wait for it to be packed down

one of the first ones on shale slope.. effing epic. it's going to be a wicked year !

I hiked up to solar coaster last weekend and it was definitely a bunch of grass/rocks from wizard down to ~base2, but doable.. which made me think that the low FL snow in the past few days may make...

nice.. heading up tomorrow. were the hollywood signs open or closed? same question for pika's. debating a peak to creek for the end of the day (rock skis of course)
