I've been bustin hump the last two days preppin for a northern tour.
For Buster, and other inquiring minds out there, I'm not in the Tammy Wynette thread, but I'm free to move about the cabin again...
Its all good, best friends til death, assets are still mutual, just want different things in retirement.
Main factor is that Salt Lake and the usage of the Wasatch is ridiculous.
So crowded.
After earning my living hanging out in closed parts of ski areas and cutting lift lines I have no desire to wait in lines.
At all.
We have a beautiful place a mile up the LCC, which we will not part with; so I have a place here when I want it.
I wanna get on the packed powder highway. Ya know where it snowed last week, the lifts are all open, its not crowded and the grooming is not soft pack, and not ice...
A blue groomer puts a smile on my face more than competing for powder does.
The wind in yer face...
I don't need the rad Alta / Snowbird terrain to enjoy this sport like I used to.
Little places like Maverick etc. are inviting to me.
I been bustin hump and haven't responded to anyone personally here, but thank you all.
I will respond to pms etc. when I park the rig up north in a bit.
Toast, your reminder that the great white north ain't like walking out your door for a tour in the Wasatch is appreciated.
Gotta get a trailer hitch, a trailer, and a coupla biles.
Keep it comin, got a two month road trip ahead...
JimmyTime spent skiing cannot be deducted from one's life.

You are gonna LOVE Montana!
That changes everything. Cooke City is a must visit - of course it hasn't been a secret to anyone for decades but the remoteness and amount of snow it gets makes it unique. Other snomoski places I'll let others comment on, they are everywhere.

No comment but I'll gladly ride a chair with TFW if he's in my neck of the woods. If only it snowed here..
2nd that everyone should experience Cooke city. Whether on sleds or touring(or both). You can get whatever experience you're seeking there.

Lifelinksplit-- or anyone-- Do you know if anyone had skied Horseshoe Mountain (West or East) before 2001?
TFW-- get a sled, a tent, and spend weekends in the Beartooths. Some of the best skiing of my life. Cold as fuck.

Sounds like I worthy search and journey. I can only imagine, given your background, the distain for the powder panic and the LCC scene. It seems like a pretty common theme with my friends. We love skiing but the love of busy ski area powder days is pretty much gone.
"Do you know how much powder I've skied in my life?". So yeah, chill places, skiing with friends, fresh air and nature. Now you are getting me excited.

TFW if you need a spot to park on the outskirts of Bozo let me know. Plenty of room.
I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

^^^ I endorse this message. The Nina's don't always act like they should in Montana, especially for BB & BS. Fingers x-ed and all that.

Seems like there is a worker sleeping in every other turnout on the spit road these days, I think you’ll be fine. I don’t get on the mtn much in summer so I can’t say but at least on the road/around the meadow there’s folks sleeping in more lots/spaces than ever before. I don’t think you’d hassled for sleeping at beehive lot

TFW… you’ve always got a spot here with me and Mrs. single on the L’East Coast if you point your rig towards the Dawn… at least we have Islands and lots of boats to enjoy them.

Throwing this out there again: Looking for some fill in work. I'm an independent contractor with insurance and all my own tools/truck. Someone must know someone out there who needs some trees cut up or a deck stained or a garage painted etc etc.

You've got liability insurance as a contractor? Most people need help this time of the year. You most have some contractor friends that can get you hooked up.

^^^ Pretty much
Listings either sit for 200+ days or if priced right get multiple offers in a day. Not much in between. I have a pile of buyers sitting on their hands right now hoping and praying we get back into the 5s on rates. Gonna get wild if rates come down enough and inventory is still super low. Not sure how it pencils out to want to have to compete with a bunch of other offers to possibly save %0.5 on the mortgage (and the actual home value has gone up more than that while waiting).....but that's what everyone wants to do right now.

Makes sense. A house across the street has been for sale for months. Then one a few doors down listed and was under contract in 24 hours.
No offense to you...but I'm so fuckin' glad to be done with real-estate. After what we went through last year, I'd be fine to never have to deal with that industry again. The largest financial transaction of your life and you could be represented by a complete hack. There needs to be a more strict barrier to entry.
Hang in there...maybe a purge of shitty agents is what this town needs.
