Anyone know the details re: the mountains operating agreement and how they can reopen for weekends etc? Save the last dust event, seems like there will be lots of touring for a while...

I think it varies for each mountain due to the differing terms of their lease agreements.

Cue Affleck: "Stafffffing"!

How were conditions at Mary Jane?

[Danno]

Excellent coverage. Sunday was really warm so the bottom was getting sticky. And everything will probably be bullet proof if it is cold.

Slush bumps were good.

[WTF is dat]

Happy end of season! here is my favorite pics of the season, I took them all on my phone I hope you guys enjoy

Although conditions were not perfect this season I skied more than I ever have before. I also spent lots of time skiing with family and friends. I am truly blessed. This was my best season ever with nearly 60 days and 1 million vert!


I’m stoked

Gratz has MJ filled up like there’s 3’ of blower up there. I’m at siding with some Dales.

Fucking Mr. Negative here. no wonder nobody wanted to have a beer with me. I wound up face first in a tree well off of Eagle Wind. It wasn't bad but I was alone, and, I took me a while to get out. nobody skied by the whole time I was getting out. What a great way to go, he died doing what he loved: Skiing and bitching about the amount of people on the mountain. Ironically, nobody skied by to see him. It skied great on Saturday, the jane lots were full AF but there was hardly anybody on the mountain, obviously, since its late April.

Agreed with the coverage. Looking forward to 10:30 slush bumps in the sun.


Apparently you can still ski Hughes Little Pierre and Norwegian over on the WP side for some possibility of fresh turns if they get more snow. I mean, do they let you ski whistle stop down to the bottom of Lariat and hike up?

Oh, and I kept forgetting to snap a pic but good going to the huge flyfisherman who put those stickers on the gates at the Super Gauge.

[Foggy_Goggles]

Jong, the self call out. Good to see. We all need it, me included, sometimes.

I think that huge fly fisherman is from around here.

Re: tree well The number to patrol is on the back of the trail map. It rings at dispatch that they can get authorization from the Sheriff's Office to track you by your phone.

Re: skiing The Park Side. It's spring, there are no rules, until there are. It gets done all the time. You are kinda running the gauntlet however. You'd be the guy standing at the base with his ski gear on an no lifts running. Also, with the Zepher replacement going on right now, I'd be staying away from skiing under that lift. You'd be better off skiing Rettas, 'Rigger, Cramhole, or something and exiting on Turnpike. Usually best accomplished by having someone pick up up over by the Timberline Lodge.

Not that I'm any kind of expert at skiing closed terrain at that place.

The fly fisherman stickers are hilarious. Even though I don't understand them.
