    Ha, I ended up leaving 2-3 hours early on Thursday, got out maybe 1:30pm? Managed to avoid all shit shows. There was an accident on top of Vail Pass, and the west side was a little dicey, but other than that, it was smooth sailing. No idea what happened later, but everyone in my crew did make it to Fruita that night (the Salida peeps had to go through Saguache because Monarch was closed).

    Quite the early season display on west side of wolf creek yesterday morning around 11 - to be fair it seemed like it was a quick pulse of snow that sent conditions south, but from truckers to tourists not many folks were ready for prime time.

    From @I70things: Asshole semi with no chains on, stuck in the left lane. One of many today. Truck tow trucks were very busy!

    There is one stuck on Berthoud pass as well. Right in the middle of a switchback with no chains. There was no way he was making it up or down with no chains. No idea what is going through these guys minds.

    Sounds like there were also some small avalanches across US40 on Berthoud…a few cars got caught.

    Not surprising. Wind was gnarly today. I was out around Grand Lake snowmobiling and the road cuts were very reactive.

    Looks like someone picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines.

    So westbound silverthorne exit went from two lanes to one now. Creates a shitshow that back up onto I70. Nice work guys. How many millions did that cost?

    the added 3rd lane from frisco to silvy is great, but can't fathom why they got rid of the 2nd turn lane, there's so much room they coulda kept it as is.

    the third lane down to trailerthorne is the bomb
    yeah the exit is a screwy after 30 years of exiting one way now it's different so it does suck but

    traffic exiting the frisco exit a few days ago was backed up past the rest area
    nice to just keep going and hit the 2nd exit

    walked to happy hour the other day and I walked faster than the cars were moving in breck

    this time of year takes patience an with shit ass snow it takes even more than normal

    Can you imagine coming here (or any other winter destination really, other than AK and Europe) and dropping thousands of dollars for this shit skiing, as well dealing with the crowds? Fuck that.

    As someone who have been sucking on the ski town economy tit for decades, I think about it more like "can you imagine if they didn't?".

    But yes, there is a certain weirdness to the fact that people pay tens of thousands to come to a ski area, wait in lines everywhere, for a half open ski area yet I won't even drive into town let alone go to the ski area for these three weeks.

    Yes, I totally get that. And it’s great that they do. It is just weird, especially with insane prices for everything. At some point you’d think people would just say fuck this, I’m not paying for this shit. Thankfully they don’t [emoji23]
