    Aspen 24-25

    Aspen opens Saturday 11/23.
    Almost 40 year to the day.





    Upon our skis, Lord, You bless us.
    When we ponder the splendor of the mountains
    and the glaciers sparkling with snow,
    Upon our skis, Lord, You bless us.
    When we ski, filled with joy,
    in brilliantly white powder,
    Upon our skis, Lord, You bless us.
    When, through the cold blueness of dawn,
    we track the snow-covered slopes,
    Upon our skis, Lord, You bless us.
    Lord, protect your friends the skiers and guide them
    across the pistes and fields of snow
    until the summit of our love resounds,
    in praise and adoration.

    See you on the hill!

    That's been my guess, I hear there are some holes to fill. But I'm optimistic after seeing them push out some snow on Nell.

    Highlands was really nice this morning. Quite cold, but the next few days will be warmer.

    Totally fine now. Snowguns and cat tracks may make it tougher during the next few days.

    My wife skinned Tiehack and said it was good. Same as Highlands; a bit sports with guns and grooming lines, but fun skiing

    Top to Bottom on Spar and possibly Copper. 44 million gallons of snow made on Aspen Mountain so far. Tuesday night was the most snow made on the four mountains, in history.
    I'll be pressing glass early.
    See you guys on the hill!

    Should be good; have fun! We’re heading to Baja for the week, but I think it will be busy and good skiing. Good skiing vibes around town this week.

    Shred - I followed you and the pup up Brush Creek this afternoon. I was driving the school bus

    Upper mountain groomers to Ajax, Spar, probably Pumphouse, maybe a couple more.

    I thought that might be you. We had just ridden up to the Bells.



    Snowmass will probably only be Lunchline off the Mid-station of the VX.
    Plus the Meadows lift at the top of the Gondola. Down loading required.

    Looks like we got max park, coney glade, Hal’s hollow, lunch line, fanny hill and scooper.

    That’s pretty good.

    Ajax was lovely. Great early season coverage, warm and sunny, and not overly crowded. Nice to be back

    Ski on chairs after 2 on a weekend is a great way to start.

    Snows still very light and fluffy, not the wet and heavy, I was expecting.
    Hopefully a lot of terrain pops today.
    Probably not a bad day to head up late.
    Be safe out there!
