Wait is that what was going on at Red Butte Gardens? The last several days I've been getting off the Trax at either Stadium or Fort Douglas then go up to the Living Room to watch the sunset and then...

Oh shit, I can't believe I forgot this, but when I was a kid at Mount Hood Summer Ski Camp I was doing the bump clinic and Johnny Moseley came flying by and stopped for a second. He was pretty good....

Like 4 people have said BusterHighman. What the hell is so special about BusterHighman??? Does he have like a 15 inch schlong or something?

You showed him around or he showed you around?

You win.

How has this duopoly not benefitted consumers though? You can argue the merits of specific actions big corporations are doing owning these ski resorts with regard to the land and trying to expand,...

5'9" is about right. I was 6ft wearing boots and he was 5'9" wearing socks. 5'9" I guess is technically average, but in sports I usually expect guys to be bigger than average. He was definitely not...

Wasn't fake Plake. He was coming out of his condo (more of a closet than condo) right behind the cafeteria in Mammoth Lodge. It was like 11pm and he was walking around in his socks with his mohawk...

Whatever way you want. Could be a celeb, or maybe a guy who was in the room with Khrushchev when he decided to back down in Cuba. I've seen tons of douchebag celebs in Vegas but the most interesting...

Was never on a lift with Glen Plake but after hours once the lodge was all closed and locked up I would see him in the Main Lodge sometimes at Mammoth. Dave McCoy gave him his own little condo right...

What an awful choice of a ski resort for her, especially being before Mineral Basin. She must had done boring laps of Chip's Run all day. Not to assume but I really don't see her charging down Great...

At Mammoth I would occasionally see film stars. Usually at Vons or at Main Lodge, but never shared a lift with anyone particularly interesting. I remember one poster here got on the chair with Daron...

Considering that almost all the shots we remember of Nobis were him straightlining 5,000 feet in 30 seconds on 60 degree Alaska spines in deep powder I would say a Lotus 138 (I'm sure the racer in...

LCC, UT is "above average" with the average being 500". I like the sound of that :-)

Dry drought years still mean 400" for PNW and UT. So it is really everyone else who has to do the weather worrying every year.

I don't think I have any chance finding unused Legend Factory Pro Riders. I think my only option now is find an old unused pair of Legend Pros.

Ok I see they do have their one single powder ski the PR-OTO Factory. But still missing is the Factory Pro Rider or something like it. The Factory Pro Rider was a nice solid firm 108mm under foot...

I've been having my eye on Dynastar's Factory Pro Riders on their website under their "All-Mountain" ski category. Little did I know this was still their 2018 lineup. It seems in the last few days...

I was thinking of doing a few weeks of heli-skiing in Alaska this year. Mainly looking at PNH and ARG in March and April. I was wondering when they usually become booked? With the roaring economy I...

Shouldn't the poll be: "Do you live in UT or CO?"

IKON Pass with an AltaBird pass will do it for me this year.

I honestly don't know my TGR password. Hopefully no one ever deletes my cookies.

I wore Darn Tough socks hiking the Pacific Crest Trail this year (as do most others) and I, like others, swear by them for hiking long distance and every day use but I've never tried their ski socks....

I used to tear up mogul fields (icy no less) in Big XXLs and stiff as a rock old school Legend Pros. I don't think you really need a specific ski for moguls unless you are on the circuit.

I'm probably going with Billy Goats for good days, Dynastar Factory Pro Riders for most other days, and then a pair of GS skis for early season and the really shitty days (I used to talk shit about...

Moguls at Snowbird/Alta? Where? No. I said I'm skiing at the Bird not Squaw.

Great! Thank you! That was the list I was looking for. I will check them out.... I made a first post on TGR without getting harassed or heckled... damn how times have changed.

No? Last time I kept abreast of things carbon was the latest and greatest for all-mountain. Didn't pan out? I admit ignorance to anything in the industry the last 8 years. I know I need to educate...

I ski bummed a couple seasons at the Bird 9 years ago. I've taken the last 9 years off but I just moved back to Sandy and cleared my whole winter to do nothing but ski (at the Bird). I was just about...
