Gone Skiin', a 22/23 TR

[byates1]

Also I want to be in the dry desert for a couple weeks. Been in full time snow since late October.

Eagle point tomorrow am will be yet another pow day.

My wife saw a dozen polygamists skiing at Eagle Point in long dresses last year. Let us know if they are out shredding tomorrow and getting face shots.

[byates1]

Lol will do

[byates1]

Deep day at eagle point. 2 plus feet piled up midweek for Fri opening. Cake pow, not light. Ppl were wallowing everywhere, well.. the 30/40 skiers on the hill. Lift ops struggling to dig out the lifts.

First time skiing at 10k feet this year. Feeling it.

made it to taos, nice drive through s ut, n az and nm.

there is an affordable gym w a sweet hot tub on the n end of town.







heading up the hill in a bit.

So many special things about that area. I need to get back soon, maybe a spring roadtrip if there's any snow left.
Or not too.
Cool moon pic.

Way to get after it Mag.

[shera]

You are getting after it!

I had one season living at Alta and the sun never came out. 700" of snow. The skiing was life changing, but I did miss the sun on my face.

[byates1]

this is going to be a fun ski history lesson for me

groomers in the sun today. good skiing considering the lean-ness of the season thus far

[Djongo Unchained]

Some elder mags have skied with some of those legends...

[byates1]

nice and sunny out there. smooth groomers. 50 and sunny in town. nice break from the endless storms.

Very cool B
Couple of things to consider while in Taos
1. If you need to have someone cook you breakfast, go to Michael’s

2. Ask Hotel La Fonda if you can see their collection of DH Lawrence paintings that he did while recuperating at Georgia O’Keefe’s house. It’s usually only open to hotel guests but Ms TBS got us in for the price of dinner

[byates1]

^ very cool tips man! Thx!

[skaredshtles]

Also: if you're feeling flush, head to the Taos Inn bar and get the rellenos. Fuckin' amazing.

[TBS]

^^^ oh yeah, Taos Inn’s blue corn pancakes are pretty awesome as well

[Meadow Skipper]

Subscribed. Waiting on more snow to make the drive up from SF.

[byates1]

Wind hold all day today. No new snow really.

[byates1]

Prob groomers in the sun daily for a while. I'll probably bounce mid week next week

[Dromond]

How is the base depth in Taos right now? A friend was talking about going in a couple of weeks.

[byates1]

Weak. Boneyard off groomers. Needs another 2/3 feet of base.

[MakersTeleMark]

Make sure to get in a soak or two at Manby.

[byates1]

Ppl trashed the parking situation for Manby during covid, homeowners had enough. Closed. Now have to hike a million miles from the rio grande bridge. I'm soaking 2x daily in the hot tub at the gym.

[Dromond]

Thanks for the report. Looks like some snow might be on the way.

[byates1]

Ski into the singles like and hit the chick my signature..

"Was that love at first sight or do I need to ski by again?"

We're having dinner tonight.

[Norseman]

That is corny as fuck, Bob.

Glad you're having fun. Post more pics
