Kirkwood will be empty on the blackout days. Like ski right on to every lift. Unless it is a powder day. But still, pretty empty.

Most BA folks have Tahoe Pass, which is blackout. KW Only...

A few other points. And I lean heavily toward Mammoth.

If you have intermediates in the group, Palisades will suck. There is really no good intermediate skiing there, other than two groomers...

Ripping. Looks like you got some nice snow for that trip.

I've only been at Mammoth Presidents Day through the week. Never on the Saturday/ Sunday.

But, if you can get lodging walking distance to Eagle Base, and are willing to start your day at 8:30...

Ellery is not skiable as of last week. Mostly rock and a few random patches in the bowl. Looked pretty horrible.

As of last Thurs/Fri there was still snow on the upper mountain. Oddly, Paranoid...

NV does have cheap gas.

Swells were pumping up here. My left shoulder is finally feeling great and now the right feels fucked. Got two waves and rode it back to shore.

With a low at McCoy forecast at 40F, I would think the wind would be your friend. Does not look windy enough to shut down 23. That would be my concern. No wind with the forecast temps and you are...

^^^no gas stop on my drive. Filled up in SC and then put 4 gallons in at Mammoth Shell, and that was enough to get me back to my door.

Bumping. Moving is 6 week and starting to move items into storage. Let me know if you want anything before it get put away for 14 months.

Where did you grow up. Shenendehowa graduate here. Left after HS and never return. SPAC was a place I also made mistakes.

We slept in a bit Tuesday, due to the frigid wind reported above. Skied from about 9 to 11 out of Main. The entire place was a ghost town. Maybe 100 people on the mountain. Maybe. At times we...

Arrived Saturday evening and shuttled up for a ride out to Juniper and back to the condo. Climbed Uptown back to the car. Skied on Sunday. We really very much enjoyed it. Would have been happy tot...

Forecast out this morning is for a little more warmth. 45F at McCoy on Sunday for a high is much much better.

We will be around Sunday through Tuesday. Skiing Sunday, and likely skiing and...

windy app for the win. fuck Surfline.

My kid enjoyed Obsidian Dome a few years ago. Short hike. The incline up is decent, but then you just wander around some rocks with views of the crest nearby.

Bummer Mike. Heal up.


Starting to look the at the Mill. Hope it lasts through Memorial Day. We will be out Sunday through Wednesday, skiing and biking. Me and my mini. Maybe we will find...

And.......

Just tuning in and will share my left shoulder story. Dislocated due to trauma Thanksgiving '19. Popped back in on was to urgent care. X-rays showed it in. Met with my ortho a week later and...

Mt Desert Island is a stunning place and singlecross is an excellent host. Bummed to not be thinking of going to this. Most years it would be a possibility as we head back east to visit family. And...

Just stunning this past page.

checkout the Tahoe thread. Storm really delivers in the CP/KW area. Impressive May system.

Thank you Gimpy! That was beautiful.

Loving how cold it is currently. Feels like winter down on the coast. Well, except for that spring wind making it feel even colder.

VIP pricing was identical to the Renewal pricing. We almost bit, but will be in Singapore next year, so can't really get too many ski days in.

^^^ Group price is same as it was before with the...

Last call folks. The adult versions bump up about a Benjamin at 12:01AM on Wednesday. Guessing that is Rocky Mountain Time, but who knows. Even if you have been in communication with me and have...

bumping, as May 10th the rate will increase. Right now this is the best price, unless you got one of those VIPs recently. I think that expires tomorrow.

I found most everything was soft by 2pm on Saturday. Even with the winds and clouds. Not sure if there is anything completely put of the sun all day at this point. I imagine Sunday was a bit...

Coming to Mammoth. Poked at the Mill likely, Will be dressed in all blue. Hoping it softens up nicely. Looks a good bit chillier than today.

Well, that was good. Skied well all day. Headed on...

KW skied excellent today. Got a few laps with Powdork in the 11:30 - 1 range off 6. Sentinel groomer was fast first lap. Off the beaten track was a mixed bag early. Headed over to 10 next and...

At KW tomorrow after noon. Wearing blue and blue and blue and grey/blue with grey/blue skis (wildcats on the moon)

^^^okay, that would be a plus. Its not like that extra elevation gets you any where there than a high traverse under 5 on a storm day when 5 is not running. Even then, you typically need to schuss...

I wonder they are setting a new line and making a two year project. Did the set backs on the Palisades/AM Gondi help then decide to run it over two summers? Fear of losing a bike park lift they...

Anyone know if Granite is closed for the season or just no steeps mid week sort of thing??

My family has always called that Sunnyside (cause it is, the sunny side) but Sundance is a new one for me.

I thought AM used to have ropes with gates to keep the traverses from fanning out. There used to be one at the far side of Wolverine, with a high gate and allow gate (closer to the sisters). Or at...

Mammoth cares. They still want to attract more customers. With Palisades so over run with people, they don't care about getting new customers. Most days, Mammoth is a ghost town in comparison. So...

cheap leather gardening gloves. Like the ones Chupa linked. If they wet out on you just apply some leather balm to water proof.

Sunbowl? Were they looking for baked pow?

^^^^Nice. Very nice.

KW again operational. 10 is loading, with a bit of a line, but a short queue on 6. They even opened 7 for egress from Palisades zone. They have got their shit together...

And it looks better and drier than I assumed. I have my fomo going. Will be out next Saturday for spring conditions if anyone is gonna be around and want to make turns. Stoked they opened...

For what it is worth Mammoth is also owned my AMC, and they don't have the same issues of early closures as Palisades Tahoe. They even re-opened a closed Canyon base lift to ease access today, and...

^^^^ I thought you didn't like deep pow. Honestly, this looks more like a base rebuild than epic powder day. Warmer, wetter, better consolidating snow. I'm thinking it will be fine the first...

It was a bit shocking seeing the front 5 at KW spinning the other day and nothing but the Funi at Pali and Heave also shut down.

And for sure AM used to run Summit as long was snow at the...

still got great pants that want to play in the snow

I believe I am all up to date on PM. Lemme know if I missed anyone.

Online prices go up Friday, but our offers are good until mid May. If you miss the renewal deadline, shoot me a PM to help...

I get the whole pay off vs time thing. There can be a lot of sitting and waiting. I do prefer consistency in the surf, and like spots with longer paddle backs. If I can minimize the waiting time at...

Only been to Panama once, and got some great waves some of the days. Why I recall is that access was a lot tougher than most of CR.

The pods always rule.

Sounds like a great spring break, or WFH option. OBX is my favorite in the spring and fall. Fuck summer.

I'm starting to get the biking part, and love skiing, but surf...

^^^ I looked on the cams late morning, and Siberia had a hudge line on it for mid April. KW also looked a bit busy compared to when I was there last Saturday. Fresh snow still bringing the folks...

Looks like Owen needs to graduate to the Ongoing Young Adult Stoke Thread...
