Roaring Fork Valley/Aspen Happenings 13-14

[Shredhead]

I'm schralping 1A early, then hitting Highlands.
If you see a guy in a blue jacket, rocking really pretty wood grain Praxis Ullars say hi.

Be safe!

Today was money at Highlands... no camera to report the action though ;-)

Wasn't nearly as busy as I expected it to be.

[Shredhead]

Tat's said it was the best day of his LIFE!

[grskier]

So, I really hope to see a lot of valley mags tomorrow night for the AVSC fundraiser.

Any word on Freddy and the Fishsticks playing for ski club?

[alpinevibes]

Highlands was silent today. I turned some killer laps on Temerity with wayyy better snow than expected. Tomorrow should be money, but crowded.

[grskier]

Today was ridiculously fun, yesterday was great.. friday was good... yup!

To add.. that top picture is my buddy teleboarding...

[dabaier]

Planning on touring tomorrow with a buddy from gypsen. Anyone interested in joining or got some beta? Leaning towards going to marble or maybe Ashcroft.

2" at 6am at the base of 1A. Aspen's skiing well. Bells open so no need to ever stand in a line.

May try to sneak in a last minute bowl lap on Tuesday, office closes at 3, may try to get out 1:30 and skiddadle over.

Gondi's down for a few days, so Highland's is the call.

Gr: I'll Pm you my number, but that's a little late for me. I'm usually toast by two and Iike the AM light.

[JaytaeMoney]

Highlands was already the call given the time of year.

Ajax is currently inundated with beaters who can barely make it down Spar/Copper... these people should be skiing at Buttermilk or Snowmass.

[garuda]

Has anyone been in to Green Wilson/Taggert huts this year? If so how's the snowpack looking? Headed that way in a few days!

[Shredhead]

I rode my sled back Richmond Ridge Saturday. Lot's of snow and it's stayed fairly cold. You should be in great shape, with weather coming this weekend. Keep it kinda mellow.

Highland's was rocking yesterday. But hiking the bowl a couple of times and skiing the Deep T, extracted it's pound of flesh.

Aspen rewards you so much easier. Today they rolled BOB#1 right into Copper since the gondi's down. So I rolled the long boards all morning.
Spar we're all time, best ever and nobody was here!

I wanted to extend an invite to all RF Valley and CO mags to come check out this movie premiere. I am also seeking new gear and SWAG to raffle off with 25% of proceeds to benefit Challenge Aspen and the rest to keep the project going. Please pm me if you can help.

This weekend was good

[HuckSolo]

Not Aspen, but it has been great skiing down valley.

Sunlight Mountain Resort: Primo


Sunlight Mountain Resort: Rapid Transit

Huck... Next big day I have off I may head over there... Always hear good things about Sunlight and never end up there....

[Onward]

Hi. Hope this jong found the right thread.

I'll be in aspen for the x-games, working as a cameraman. Hopefully I'll have a few hours available for skiing around a bit.

Anyone wanna show a euro around? Should I bring skins? I found the "uphill policy" page on the official website...

Skis? I'm thinking of bringing my praxis bc's as an one-ski-quiver, or should I go fatter?

[Shredhead]

It never hurts to have skins. The BC's should be fine, but my everday is more like a fully cambered 108mm.
If you like to get out early, I'm generally first chair at Shadow Mt. lift on Aspen.

[grskier]

Good news is you can get to any of the 4 pretty easy. Bad news is you'll be at Buttermilk. Though you can catch the bus to Ajax really quickly. You have a good everyday setup for here.

Let's make some laps! I will be up valley to judge the IFSA junior event in Feb. We could do some laps then also.
