    I haven't been yet, but Betasso drains really well, it's a go to spot after rain. Maybe there's still some ice on a north facing spot or two but I bet a lot that it's good riding.

    If you want to come to Central Texas, I have an old pair of Head “Racing” skis you are welcome to. I mean, they have the word “Racing” on them, so they must be fast, right? They are red, too.

    Hi jacking the OP thread. This winter has been crushing at my place near parleys summit. I need to create a wind fence and old skis would work great.
    I rip the groomed on tele gear

    I've got some old Coombacks, and RMUs you could have in Summit County.

    Ski Trucks in SLC just advertised their big stash of bulk skis to build fences, etc. Probably not free, but likely very cheap.

    I have a pair of Nordica Enforcers that went for a quick flight at 70mph and are toast. One has obvious impact that bent the metal layers, but would still make a good fence post. The other is somehow relatively unscathed. I'm in Broomfield, come and get 'em.

    Looking for old dead skis with which to build a fence

    Getting somewhere. Thanks to everyone so far! And especially JET123 who came up with a ton of these…

    Next step: binding removal. Then they go up onto the fence frame.

    That is a hell of a fence.
    No longer stuck.

    Right on, I'll start stashing some sticks. Winters fine, of course.

    I want any Salomon equipes, 997, etc.;12, 14, 16 din.

    I need to go to Utah.
    Utah?
    Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?

    So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....


    Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues
