Damn, truth! I'm still going to collect these comments though.. Thanks y'all for the quotes and responses!

It can be difficult not to unleash the full snark on the dumbest comments about carrying skis on a dry trail. Yesterday I was more gracious than usual in my responses but took notes. Post your...

Hey friends, I came here to post the same thread. Let's go shred weekdays!

My partner hauled her cello and I hauled my fiddle to the summit of Mt. Shavano last Friday 7/14/17 and we recorded our performance on top. Certainly the cello was a bigger pain than the fiddle,...

Just months in a row

that sounds plausible... and yep, that's the area. It was so clearly on the snow thought it might have been a skier/mag.

This hat is totally unique and front design clearly made by hand with felt and thread. Found at the bottom of a ski run off Trail Ridge road. There's a lot of love put into this and whoever made it...

heading up... I'll be the dude skiing while playing the fiddle for a few runs

did the ridge open today / was the cat running?

on Friday had a similar experience in the Corral couloir, except when we got to the apron of dead elk it was getting dangerously wet. I learned that day about how wind can cause even a sunny day to...

Buddy just bailed on me for tomorrow, looks like we've got 2 more days of freeze/thaw and then back into more powder and waiting for things to settle again..

I live in Lafayette, have avy safety...

Getting rid of the headwaters area and North Summit doesn't seem like a smart idea to me... I had an absolute blast in those chutes these past few years passing through. Come on Big Sky! Buying MB...

1. Beacons and other safety equipment are a last resort for when every single other part of the...

I wondered the same thing, here's c&p from the main Berthoud thread

Lafayette over here, Loveland or touring anytime. running low on funds so carpooling is necessary if possible! Wooly Mammoth is the jam!

A few years ago when I lost one Mantra in a 3 foot Magic pow day I spent the rest of my day on the mountain dew skis and it was TOUGH. I'm glad to hear the fleet is improving! It was thanks to TGR...

I salute you sir; you found a way to triple the intensity of such a fine word.

Maybe things were happening too fast, but the way he says "so I decided to straightline over the cliff" I'm wondering why he wouldn't try to stop and let the slide run its course?

Alta hasn't sued any of the snowboarders riding down from Snowbird...

teeny place... what are they going to do with it?

If you are daytripping from Denver you should definitely check out Loveland for at least a day. It's not the steepest mountain around but there's very few moguls and never any lines and cheap lift...

haha I should have made that a longer song...

I'm coming back on Friday with a banjo player! could be on top of 2, that place is a little bigger and with bathrooms, essential for a music sesh...

absolutely! it'd be sweet to get a whole bluegrass band up there...

trees off 4 for the win!! I'm not usually one for mid-stations, but that one today was pretty convenient.

It wasn't easy to leave Silverton after Friday... but Monarch delivered the goods!!!!!!!!!!!!
