So...Steamboat's been good.

[Name Redacted]

Has anyone skied rabbit ears recently? It looked really good when I drove past two weeks ago, kinda wondering how its skiing

XC skied there yesterday. Great snow, flat terrain. Hence the xc . Meadow skipping is possible.

I was always under the impression that it was dominated by slednecks, but then I realized they're confined to one side of the pass, so I had to ask. Steamboat locals that I've talked I prefer buffalo pass, but that's pretty far for me when I can hit Cameron instead. (Btw, cp was great on Saturday. At least the trees were)

Rabbit ears is mellow. So mellow

Ah, well thanks. I imagined somewhere there'd be some hidden gem slopes or something. Saved me the time and gas exploring.

How is Buff Pass doing? That area seems the ultimate for having a sled vs. Minimal consequences given the terrain/low angle safety. Got to experience some of it via a snowcat hookup/comp.

^ glad you asked. I'd like to know too. The avi danger is lower there than the front range (as of yesterday), which is a plus

There is a couple of descent shots on RE but overall it's flat. If I remember right there is a big cliff zone on the back of one of those little peaks and it looked good for some big huckin if that's what your into.

Anyone hit steamboat since yesterday? I might try to get out there on Sunday if anyone wants to ski

That'd actually be fun to check out, how big are we talkin? I'm not into snapping femurs 2 miles from a trailhead in deep snow lol

17" officially in 48hrs. Everything is riding nice but totals are way lower than Summit/Vail/Elk's...

[cyborg]

How much lower? Snowforecast.com listed vail at 21 in of fresh snow, but I heard people saying 40!? And I saw sunlight only got like a foot...?

Steamboat was fantastic on Saturday.

Nice! ................

[Paddyo]

If anyone is familiar with Buff Pass and wants a free tow shot me a PM...been wanting to get over there and it would be nice to hit it with someone that knows the terrain.

It was also good on Sunday. Spent a lot of time on morning side playing on the cliffs and then finding fresh tracks on the mellow hills below. Definitely tracked out but there were still plenty of little stashes all over. Combined with being pretty dead for a weekend (thank you, broncos), it was a good time.

Steamboat was fantastic on Saturday.

Off the hook Saturday, total sleeper day as it nuked after the 6" 5am report. Some of the lowest water content snow you can find. Sidecountry was waist deep cold smoke.

Yesterday was ok as well:
