How was Crystal today? A rainy mess, dust on crust, or a little better than that? Any chance Rex opened?
I have the day off tomorrow and debating whether the turns are worth the trek.

Same slide trigger and similar slide path as the April 6 size 2

These photos finally live up to thread title

Looks like patrol is keeping all of alpine closed today

My bad, I see I mixed it up in my head, was cramming a lot of research into one post and slipped up. Fixed it now.




I updated the summary comment for clarity - added that it was the traverse...

Found the answer to my own question about conditions at Whitewater if anyone else is wondering.

Welp, lodging is booked...

Big bummer. How far up the hill did the rain go? Any beta on the skiing today?

How was the skiing at Whitewater today?

It looks like the snow level today was around or just above base.
Did it rain at bottom or just heavy snow?

Hoping to visit this Sat/Sun with my lady.

Thanks for the beta, appreciate it. Sounds rough. Hope the Sunday night/Monday morning weather overperforms.

We're pivoting to Whitewater, provided I get a negative test result back in time to...

How far up the mountain did it rain at Schweitzer today?

Had been planning to visit this Sat/Sun with my lady, until the snow level rose higher than initially predicted.. not too sure what to do...

Hah, I am jong. Thanks for the link.

Glacier opened on Friday!

Follow up on this - seems like the border patrol has been getting enough questions on this to change their wording. The updated wording now uses the word "they" instead of "fully vaccinated...

I spent a long time researching and trying to understand this requirement. I cross the border from WA every weekend to ski Whistler so I have a big stake in this.

Based on the articles below, the...

Thank you fellas for the suggestions re: Seattle PT for hip surgery rehab

- I looked at Peak Sports & Spine but their Lake City location near me had questionable reviews.
- I will consider Husky...

Hey fellas, I broke my hip on the hill back in March and recovery has been coming along slower than I'd like. Do you have a physical therapist in Seattle that you would recommend?

That is really rough to read about. Glad to hear that you are physically okay. Remember that therapy for emotional trauma is completely okay. It will take time to process. I was on scene at a triple...

PG I think you're crazy but that visual analysis was actually very interesting and informative.

Do I care that the photos were rotated? No.
Was I fascinated by the write-up and the fact that...

I think that's a fair assessment. But I want to refute the point that I see made often that Ikon only gives 5 or 7 days and it can't possibly be making as huge of an impact as people complain about....

The data exists and it doesn't look good.

You're quoting the core season dates for next season.

Does anyone happen to have experience with In Motion Physical Therapy? Their Fort Union location is pretty close to me, in-network, seems to have good reviews.

@snowaddict91, thank you for the rec, I will look into it!

@altacoup, Canyon Sports was actually the recommendation I got from my surgeon but unfortunately they are out of network for me. I'm...

Does anyone have a physical therapist that they would recommend within 30 minutes of Midvale?

Broke my hip a week and a half ago.

Thank you for the thorough answers!

Awesome edit. Personally wouldn't mind seeing more on this thread. Speedriding and wingsuits are two sports that I've always been fascinated by but have never...

Wow, that is some incredible footage. I hope to see more of it in the future!
A few curiosity questions came to mind watching it -

Do you wear any special equipment i.e. impact vests to protect...

riveting storytelling, had me gripped til the end

Whatever happened with the Mary Ellen Gulch expansion at Snowbird? They got permission in 2016, said they wanted to break ground in 2018 or 2019, finished the baseline water study in 2018, and then...

I did my fair share of googling, thank you very much. Checked Thule, Athalon, Dakine, High Sierra, Evo, REI, Level9, Salomon, Atomic.

There were not a lot of double ski bag options without wheels....

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough when asking for your favorite car travel bag. I...

Thanks for the input boys. I had em mounted at +2, stoked to take em out in a few days.

Bumping this thread for further crowd input. Luke Koppa from Blister liked it at +3 in his review. I'm sure I don't spend as much time in the air or swinging my skis around as either he, Cy, or any...
