Holy shit... if you’re reading this and skiing Snowmass today, go to HV immediately.

Fasho, nice morning on Ajax. N facing stuff like Henry's and SQ was skiing great with no crust underneath.

Was sitting on a BC.com gift card and need some new skins. Thanks!

I don't think Finishing Touch does mechanical work but you can always call. They do incredible body work if you ever need it though.

You are correct, now I remember that ON3P measures their actual length and most manufacturers measure the ski before it's pressed so the tape pull is shorter than the stated length.

Anyway,...

Can anyone comment on the 190cm WC108 vs 186cm ON3P Kartel/Jeffrey 108?

I love the K108's but mine are pretty clapped out after four seasons of heavy use, so I'm starting to think about a...

In Aspen the 2hr residential zones are not being enforced right now due to Covid. So you can park in those zones all day for free at the moment. You can also park in the core and pay the meter, 4hr...

Yeah I haven't heard anything about those cabins...

I am 100% for the lift and terrain expansion and I've spent a ton of time skiing back there. Not worried about "losing my powder stash" because...

Soft, fresh, cold, sunny... and Ajax is open wall to wall. February hath delivered.

No sarcasm, was just confused after several glasses of wine. I skied soft chop at Snowmass all day yesterday and I thought 108 was just about perfect.

Anyway I think a 180 Brahma sounds pretty...

Confused. You mean quicker as in more stable/chargy? By "mid 90s and like 112" I assume you mean 190-something and 112mm underfoot? At 195#, surely you don't want a quicker as in lighter, narrower,...

I let my wife ski early yesterday and took my kid to Buttermilk in the morning. I didn't get to Ajax until 12:45 and skied until the end of the day and I thought it was still excellent (on the right...

I think it's slated for summer of 2022. We are probably screwed.

First (hopefully) completely normal summer after COVID and they're going to rebuild the roundabout. Should be fun for us worker bees who have to commute into town every day.

Gonna have a little pep in my step for the rest of the day after this morning on Ajax. So freaking fun.

Other than the first run or two, today was better than yesterday and the mountain was empty.

Sounds like it was Marvin's and it sounds like it could be another multi victim situation. Hopefully my info is incorrect but I doubt it.

Agreed... very fun day and great snow for the base which is exactly what the doctor ordered. More please.

First lift served pow day with a double digit am report since... ???

It's gonna be a mad house

Sweet, thx

Minor thread hijack here: does anyone know the best place to find replacement soles for RX 130 LV's? They're the 2016ish version (all black with green buckles). I'm coming up empty on google... looks...

Three wall laps today, it's not saying much but those were my best turns of the season aside from the early rope drops on Ajax

I skied Snowmass on Saturday as well, it was very nice indeed. Sniffed out some excellent turns on Ajax yesterday too, in between rock hits. More snow plz.

Are you lost? Do you know what thread you are in?

Take one for the team

Can results be viewed publicly? I'm curious if anyone I know got lucky.

Despair not, denizens of the Colorado Weather Discussion Thread! The Bama rule doesn't apply this year. Fake COVID season, they did not win a real championship.

I've used both RS and RX stock liners in various versions of the RX130, never noticed much of a difference. RS seemed a little stiffer maybe. Both are cold compared to Intuitions.

I could have written this pretty much verbatim. We are having the same issues with my daughter who turns three this month. I guess I'll put the edgie wedgie on, we used it last year but I never put...

Yeah, this is a very big deal if you're like me and seemingly always on the clock.

Being able to get off the (new/faster) Burn chair and hit KT Gully/Rock Island/etc. and then go straight up to...

I loved it when I was a kid and I ski it a decent amount since moving to SMV a couple years ago. It is growing on me (New Burn chair and especially new High Alpine alignment are huge improvements to...

GR nooooo!!! Sorry to hear, get after that rehab.

I skied Bmilk with my kid this morning, on the way there we drove by the airport on Owl Creek and there was a traffic jam of outbound PJ's. I also...

This had me scratching my head when I was there in February, middle of the week, right before Covid. Double digit totals in the a.m. report and still snowing when the lifts opened, plenty of people...

Let's recap:

-Steamboat, top 5 most popular ski resort in North America
-Christmas Break, the busiest week of the ski season
-Pandemic that requires distancing in line and does not allow lifts...

What was the thought process behind that? The resorts are busiest at 11am so what is the point of blacking out the kids until then? Seems like that would only increase congestion.

It's straight up weird. Quietest Christmas Break I can remember... it will be interesting to see what the sales/lodging tax receipts look like. And of course everyone's favorite metric for the...

Yes. I can't remember the week between Christmas and NYE ever being as quiet here as it is right now. Yesterday (what should have been the busiest Sunday of the season) I was at Buttermilk with my...

The workhorse of my resort quiver is a custom ON3P Kartel 108, they have held up great for 3+ seasons. The only downside is how many questions I get about them from strangers on the lift, I should be...

I skied Zuagg and Perry’s as community service today

That entire season kicked ass.

Ajax is skiing so well right now. Too much fun.

Boot packing update from highlandspatrol.com:

Looks terrible, glad I was in the office with my zoom calls and excel spreadsheets

Just awesome. Wish I could go chase rope drops today instead of working but stoked to have the base.

Same experience here. 8 resort days, I've seen one person without a mask in the lift line and that was yesterday. Uncovered noses are relatively common though.

I'm sure they have been packing lately. I don't personally know anyone who is doing it this year but they threw up the usual October post on highlandspatrol.com and said the boot packing program...

Wonderful skiing on Ajax yesterday. Gotta love those early season rope drops.

Overproduction, you love to see it!

Not a huge storm by any means but it's nice to see some snow on the ground. 2-3" on my deck in SMV so hopefully more up high

Climber Joe found a local deal, PM headed your way.
