    Yeah, the bus was seriously slow going, roads had a lot of snow, it came fast. But tapered by the time I got to Superior, and virtually no snow in Boulder.

    Exactly. I'm sure there were plenty of dumbassess out there -- that's why I ride the bus -- but it was a lot of snow in a short time, at the exact wrong time.

    Yeah. GF sent pics from Arvada. Crazy. Looked like it went from nothing to 3"? in maybe 2hrs at the exact moment of rush hour.

    Sounds like a sleeper powder day. Did you drop the cornice into the right couloir?

    I bet Red Rocks is still a little thin. Better bring rock skis.

    Yeah, there were the few nut jobs, but in general, folks were calm and patient and nothing like the mad, "go-go" mentality of Boulder, CO or I-70.

    Uhh, people are still pretty relaxed driving here. Ever drive in Boston or Houston? I'll take drivers here anyday.

    Yeah, while it's certainly easy to complain about drivers anywhere, people here are generally fairly courteous.

    If you search Road Rage on YouTube, you’ll see most are from CA, NJ, NY and MA.

    I never said NY, Houston, Boston or Seattle were sane by any stretch of the imagination and I'd rather not call this place ok as a result of this comparison.

    It also doesn't negate the fact that people can't drive in snow here and that they have yet to establish a meaningful relationship with their turn signals - the latter reflecting a "fuck you" approach that has no relationship with courteous driving.

    Vail was pretty dope today with the 4 or 5 inches fresh. The usual windloaded spots were nice. Red square provided bottomless soft turns.

    Hucked some cliffs over at Rasputin’s revenge. Was pretty dope.


    I forgot how fun that area is

    Interesting chatter around Copper. It sounds like the Tucker lift project is moving forward.
    I'm not a huge fan of the lift, as that terrain really can't support a ton of traffic, but this opens up the door for the expansion south of Tucker.
    Their master plan shows terrain right up to 13K on the east slope of Jacques Peak, stay tuned, as that would be pretty fucking sweet if it happened.

    Taco was way deeper than the morning report too

    Veeeery intrigued by that bowl to the south/sw of Tucker Mtn as well as Jacques Peak. IMO all that via cat or hike would be far more interesting than Taco, etc.

    Love me some Taco & Nacho, but that terrain will be a nice upgrade.

    Where can I read up on what their master plan is?
