We've had several wind events this week... be safe. I'll be working until Friday... I'll let you know if I'm out Friday solo... the weekend we'll probably be doing the pass between with my daughter.

Tatsuno, doing what he does, on the cover of Powder.

So incredibly excited for him.

When does the X games crowd show up in town? Wondering about coming up to Highlands tomorrow, Wednesday from GJ?

Shouldn't be an issue until Friday.. and you wouldn't see them there anyway.

I was skiing your neck of the woods two weeks ago. Hit two powder days and the mountains were nearly empty the whole time Jan 7-12.

X crowds are never an issue skiing. Getting past Buttermilk on HWY 82 can be and there won't be any free Highland's parking there Tuesday. Wednesdays, parking is free at Highlands.

You used to work at the hospital? Were you married to Phyllis?

Drove to Highlands today from the Vail area and back. There was a bit of X Games traffic on the way out. Right down the gut of the bowl was really nice, I'd never really skied snow like that. Almost like a 40 degree smooth groomer.

That's just called rush hour.

In the office today....

So I can ski tomorrow uninterupted.

This just came up on twitter... I'm thinking it's Katrina Devore... but who knows

Tomorrow should be real nice, the heaviest stuff hasn't even shown up yet. I didn't make it out until 10 today and Ajax was pretty empty and skiing much deeper than the reported totals in some spots.

Isn't that usually the case

Where do you think you'll ski tomorrow?
