I guess the wind really made it sketch on the peak. When we tried to ride tram first thing yesterday the word was, "Pretty much everything slid." I assume they meant the new wind slabs just from last few days of snow.

2012 SW Montana Conditions, Stoke and Whatev Thread
Can confirm powder laps since noon inbounds at BS today.
All the hikes appeared to be closed, but I got out around 11 am
Challenger skied great. Ping pong ball on powder seeker.
Mntlion, I’m sorry I didn’t link up with/ya! Had a hard time driving up and made it way late.

Heard that one of the Young Guns on BSSP got caught in Great Falls on his 3rd ski cut and took a beating. Heal up Danny.

WRG, watch your ass on those cliffs. If you decide to try the entire drop, ski under it first and carefully investigate the landing. There are hot spots along the bottom of all those rock bands that rot out the snow from underneath, every year they are there but not always in the same spots.
A couple of really really good skiers have fucked themselves up trying that big one and suffering a hard landing. And by fucked up I mean surgery and PT.
BTW the 2x-3x is the Lilly Pad to the Toad.

Lots of great snow from Noon on at BS with knee deep + in spots. The wind pack and scour was tough in low visibility spots, but many long and soft shots. While there were a few people around in the morning, by 1:00 PM every lift I saw was ski on.
A low angle adventure early this morning on Spirit Mountain yielded the expected untracked snow and the view of a mini-concrete plant set up along a trail. The propane fuel tank was almost the same size as the aggregate mixer. I guess foundations for YC and SP need to be poured no matter the season.

^^^ Right now that is dedicated to just the SP clubhouse.
That can be a fun place to go on a getaway. I doubt I am giving much away here so, When you get off the Detachable quad, hang a hard left through the trees and stay high. Eventually you get to a small bowl with a guardrail along the top, that is the Y/C boundary. You can traverse a way to the south just below the guardrail and get 20-25 decent 25 degree turns before you hit groomer and flats. Watch out for plows, it would suck to be standing there getting ready to drop and get blasted.

Question for you locals. I am currently on a trip and am staying about 6 miles from Big Sky. We are supposed to check out of our place tomorrow morning and head to Jackson Hole. The skiing was amazing today with all the fresh snowfall. However, I am worried about the drive to Jackson since its snowed this much. Is there a possible route that we can take to get to Jackson and avoid any closed roads/passes? We are in a 4wd Expedition so not super worried about the roads just the route to get there. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks for the info NB. Seen some questionable bombholes in some of the videos I have been watching of headwaters airs. I know lily pad is the classic double. Have seen some people take Class 4 by linking up 2-3 small airs over the patches of rocks. Toad could be in the cards if it was just stupid deep. Saw a few people hit it last year. One kid caught a rock on take-off and basically lawn darted by accident. Luckily the landing was really soft and he was totally fine.
I have seen some video attempts at Class 6. Pretty sure that is something I would never touch. Not that I would ever do it, but out of curiosity has anyone ever sent Class 5?

So I heard pretty much nothing opened again today at the big? Tram, Sheddy and Dakota were closed all day yesterday. Today too? Hike closed all day today?

As of right now, any road that would take you there is closed. Both of these sites are useful:

Unrelated: anybody hear anything about a slide on the west side of the Bridgers today, opposite PK at BB?

Everything opened for awhile at least except the tram. The whole hike was open for a minute and then was eventually pulled back to even the lift being closed by 1230 or so. Sheddy and Dakota opened late morning not sure if they made it to close or not.

Tram opened. Marx Lenin Liberty until 1 or so then Liberty only until the end of the day. So did shedhorn and Dakota. Hike was open on roughly the same timeline. Challenger was on and off wind hold. So much pow.
