Heli trax throws bombs all season long.

Skiing must be good.

If it’s crowded go elsewhere, it’s a big wide world.

‘The victim was a well known Ophir local. I did not know him, but I am sure that others here did.’

There’s only like 20 people in Ophir, so everyone knows everybody.

Pandora’s box, is the name.

Why is every guide book written by someone originally from two thousand miles away?

Gazex.

Wonderful photos.

[QUOTE=powdork;6834003]I'm confused as to why they wouldn't skin up the low angle slopes at the head of the canyon they had decided to descend. Was skinning up the slide path in the right of the...

Tourons as you say, think lift op is a job that lets you ski a ton, not. Being a ‘guide’ in America means you know about the mountains, not. Euro guides from Europe are a different story.

Skideepow, Ski over to Italy have lunch go back to zermatt. High visibility sensitive resort, if stormy ski the Rothorn trees.

I agree on the site slowly dying but I really enjoyed that Jerry Johnson piece last month. There would be a lot of potential space for discussing the state of the industry (instaclowns, the ethical...

we use to have T-shirts that said ‘long skis truck, short skis suck!’ My how things have changed.

What was great about most of the 90’s was no phat skis, or almost none. There were the Miller softs, Rossi haute route ski and a few others. When ever there was a big dump only the locals that were...

skiing wasn’t on life support, that’s just what city folks keep regurgitating.

Nothing low brow about telluride anymore, it’s not much different than ruined aspen, so over run and crowded it’s getting insane.

that’s a guide’s joke.

Glaciers in Colorado, where are those?

Don’t set something in stone, be flexible. Have an idea where you’d like to go but wait to see how the snow is shaping up by around thanksgiving or so. Just got back from about my sixty fifth alps...

Marmot one piece powder suit, 8L is the size. Cool Canadian mountain holidays stitching on back. $150.

Awfully short course.

Will it be televised, regular tv?

They do, just not in USA

You can bring your dog when conditions warrant it, like hopefully spring time.

Absolutely not.

several options.

That’s a lot of money for one run. I’ve done it, also with variations, probably over two hundred times, never hired a ‘guide’ just find a local or follow a guided group. I do believe they have...

That’s exactly how it is in the alps, on snow no trespassing. Was skiing the secret chutes of Le Lavancher in 89’ with some locals, when I asked if we were trespassing as we were skiing right next to...

Such a shame, last week tons of snow and winter in full force, this week global warmingly hot, ugh.

Murren, talk about vert. See James yet.

A good day to do something else.

So true.

Where’s does one begin.

Labeling yourself a guide in America doesn’t mean that much. What’s happened in the San Juan’s is proof of that.

Wait til spring.

You can arrested skiing there.
