    LCC/BCC Conditions

    Salida is also a high mountain town in southern CO, from which I hail (originally). One of the more beautiful spots in the country in my opinion. In the old days the spanish settlers named the town Salida because it was the exit from the mountains, now-a-days the Coloradans say the name with...

    LCC/BCC Conditions

    Good skiing out there today. Nice to be back in the fresh snow saddle. Will soften out the base for the walloping that is about to come. and Rog - give me a break. I'm probably the only one on this board that has spent more time on Mt. Wash than you have. When it's great it's great, but it...

    LCC/BCC Conditions

    Come on here. Snowbird's lifts move you more effectively to the goods. IE Great for a quick powder morning. Snowbird also offers more sidecountry accessible terrain, that is incredibly underutilized due to locals being incredibly spoiled. Alta staggers its openings better than snowbird, and...

    I've got to post here to relay the killer day I had yesterday. Started off at 9 at gadzoom, up to gad ii and out the white pine gate. Booted up the ridge to AF twin peaks until it rocks out, and then set a traverse up and under to white baldy, and then started a 3,500 foot decent to the valley...

    None of those rough, challenging bumps under the snow over on the other side of the baldy shoulder. Ahem. PS First tram went up at 815 this morning, a whole hour earlier than alta...

    Did any of you Utards ski this week?

    Of course we did. Hard to write some many superlatives about how awesome it was though. Suffice to say it was tunneling down the mountain.

    Fun to hear your experiences on full reverse camber skis. Can really make or break some of those crud type days.

    So much fun up there today. Firsts down the nipple past eagles nest, eddies trees, and then key hole. One run on peruvian, then a half dozen down tiger tail. So insanely deep by the end of the day. Bringing the snorkel up to Alta for the morning.

    Not sure where all the love is for it this weekend, but it was tasty. Snowbird kept letting me on 830 trams which made for solo little chute (sat) and main chute (sun) laps before people were even loading collins. Great to be up there by myself so early in the morning. Whitepine, tigertail...

    I beg to differ. Yesterday was a really damn good day at the Bird. North Baldy was unbelievably good. The wind was blowing, but it wasn't that strong. Germania pass registered a max gust of 41 mph yesterday. So uncrowded, great sugar snow. Couldn't ask for a nicer day.
