WTF is up with sliceflation these days? Order a couple slices and they can fit in one hand. Generally speaking.

Have you seen the sides at Moe's? It's like 2 bites

[Foggy_Goggles]

Well I don't know if the slices are huge or the bartender gave me four? But I was full. Pepperoni's is one of the only places I'm recognized anymore.

[The SnowShow]

Yeah, I got out yesterday. Excepting the Cirque, we are open wall to wall. I thought the skiing was excellent. There is something to what Danno said about the bumps being better. The HiLo is fixed which helps navigate the Jane when busy. And 2 slices and a beer at Peps is still $11.

Yes, they are absolutely primo. Also got into the Eagle Wind trees for the first time this year, which was nice. Way out by Belle Fourche and Left Hand were lots of quiet, untracked lines.

[Irlts]

I was also impressed with the quality of those trees, buttery, but not too salty.

[bamboocoreONLY]

Quite pleased with how breck skied yesterday. The little bits of snow all week have kept it consistently soft skiing. Even some fresh turns in the right spots

Definitely getting out on the bike this week.

[Leshphilling77]

I have to go to denver for work tomorrow, mostly be sitting in classes but looking forward to getting to walk around in some warm weather too.

Basin is still holding up pretty good, even zuma bowl was fun on saturday morning. hopefully this next round of snow holds true, feel like some forecasts have backed off a little for the northern mountains.

[JaytaeMoney]

Holy shit it's hot, felt like April on the hill today

[GeorgiaSnow]

Yeah, it got warm. This weekend at Copper was fun. Resolution was great yesterday morning but it started to feel like spring slush bumps. Gonna be real firm in the mornings until we get a refresh. Free fall was awesome though. Hopefully the shade keeps it nice.

Glad to hear Bird Fart is open. Love that area.

Also, couldn’t help but laugh at this gem on Saturday, in a crowded dining area. Gotta keep your skis close when your rentals are this nice apparently:

Not sure I've ever seen that before.

Makes you wonder what they were thinking as they walked past hundreds of skis outside in the ski racks.

I had a friend in college who grew up outside NYC skiing at Hunter and he was always paranoid about having skis stolen from the racks and would always want to swap a ski with me when we left them outside so they weren't a matched pair and therefore less likely to be stolen?

Growing up in PA, we did the same thing. It's probably pretty effective.

[goldenboy]

^^ Hard as it is to believe, lots of "stolen skis" are just people too stupid to know what skis they're actually on. At least they figure it out with 2 different skis.

A few weeks back I saw a lady sitting at 4-points bar with her pink-clad grasssticks tucked safely underneath her bar stool parallel to the bar. Sorry bae, grasssticks don't make you a local any more than your 2nd home.

Eons ago, at A-Basin, my then girlfriend and I split skis and separated where they were placed. It was a pretty normal thing to do. Someone walked off with one of our mismatched pair. That was a fun ride home.

When I was working night security at Stowe a fucking long ass time ago, one of my jobs was clearing all the fucking racks of the skis that got left at night, and keeping a log of what we found. It was fucking ridiculous how many goddamn pairs of skis that were left there on a Saturday night. The vast majority of them being reported to customer service as “stolen”.

it was equally as funny how many of those fuckers never bothered to come back to pick the skis up after we inform them that the skis were found on the rack right where they left them. any skis that didn’t get picked up by anybody were given to the person listed on the log as the finder at the end of the season. most of it was intermediate crap, but i was able make some decent extra cash dumping them at the waitsfield ski swap. did end up with a sweet pair of volkl p50’s though. Skied the shit outta them for a long time. still got ‘em in the pile ‘o skis somewheres…

[The SnowShow]

Copper Bowl was slushy by 3pm today. Corral reef in obvious aspects before that. North sides of Tucker Mtn and Union Peak full of chalk.

I'd be happy if the wind returned, all the areas that usually ski smooth/buffed are just moguled out up high. Other than the crazy wind during that big storm cycle, it's been relatively calm this winter as a whole.

Back in the "kinder gentler time" of ski towns. I worked for a locally owned ski rental outfit. The stories you'd hear wear amazing. "Where are your skis" "I don't know" "these aren't your skis"

We'd round up skis all over town. Left at the ski area, left on the bus, in every snowbank (they'd get plowed up and found in the summer, outside the grocery store.
