Road stuff... http://twitter.com/MtBaldyFire Other worse pics were sent to me prolly from FB -- Manker area just below The Bowling Alley big parts of road are kinda missing, eroded from side/underneath.

Thanks for the Latimes article, Mr. Cojean also hosted a bonfire making the Mt. Baldy evening/night almost as festive as a powder morning. BTW 95% of the cars were ahead of mine, so even folks who were early and wanted to be home by lunchtime were part of it.

I went yesterday, quit skiing at 1:55. Everybody was stranded in their cars at Manker Flats. Cars didn't start inching forward until 9. So I shoulda got home by 3 or 4 and instead it was after midnight. Tony, here's that Kriechmayr Hahnenkamm highlight I mentioned on the chair...

"packed powder" or "loose granular" = they groomed everything LOL. Yikes, I'm getting too old cuz that's starting to sound good...

FWIW the argument that "seeing is believing" is an argument in Tony's favor. He seems to be wondering why they can't produce a snow report that faraway people can read, and realize how good it is. Then I guess there's the "they don't care" which usually means one or the other of a crappy...

Yikes, I dunno, pretty sure all the snow I was spraying around was from Ullr. They have a snowgun just above/behind the bottom of 2 but I can't remember if those ones on skiers right of mid-Skyline are still there. What's new? Signs, signs. Everywhere there's signs.

Garry skied Baldy today, guess he knew to get the pass. It was very good, Skyline prolly similar to Snow Summit, I liked Robin's best for the good snow and quick turns.

I'd go to Loveland. Unrelated... I think people were actually taught this. Would it make a difference if spoken instead of written?

Thanks! For those interested in the executive summary, the article seems to indicate that EMSC has never hollered "Dropping!" in the ski context (where it means "Gang way, I'm about to descend!"). At least for now, the fee went away (not went lower).

The Brownie lot is fine, if/when they run the shuttles correctly. But these are insular mountain folk who have no clue about customer service, so once in awhile there will be problems. One of my days last season I broke a snowboard binding so I had to go back to grab my tele gear. The first 4...

Re the OP, getting more skiers in less cars is definitely the way to go and I support that. The counterpoint of course is ski areas with large parking lots (almost always on public land), where the dividing line between pay parking and free parking is completely arbitrary ("Let's rope off the...

Even South Bowl is open, kooks...

Opening Day tomorrow. Their FB report sez your rock snowboard will work best... https://www.facebook.com/MtBaldyResort/

Sure sometimes it ain't so good but a trip report is the opposite of telling everybody to just stay home. You and I who don't post them come off as couch potatoes. You could lose a few pounds, kook....

http://cbsloc.al/2Fjm2LB Reason #3 why it's a kook move to ask a lift operator "When?" They have no input, let them and patrol do their thing.

An article I read yesterday discussed that, with stats. Probably The Sheet... http://thesheetnews.com/wp-content/uplo ... 3.2018.pdf

They changed the Ikon Base Pass -- now ya get unlimited Mammoth ski daze except Christmas, MLK, and Prez holiday periods for the $599, thanks to people like me who complained about how originally it was gonna cost ~$200 more than 17/18 for the only Mammoth season pass equivalent.

Thanks for the report. The length is a plus cuz I will return to this video later after having already caught the highlights. Idaho is a great state for making small talk with strangers! Say your filling up at the pump and a local smiles while doing the same. As yer wondering what to chitchat...

Instead of MMSA paying what the land's worth, you get this very weird type of commerce that works out something like this... Pennies on the Dollar + Political Patronage and $25000/plate Campaign Events + Backroom Deal$ = Way less than the proper land valuation all added up Good for MMSA for...

It's not done. You're probably thinking of the legislation that was needed to allow the corporate welfare recipient to kick in some pennies (in addition to the worthless forest land elsewhere), in exchange for the valuable forest land around the Main Lodge. I believe that's done, but the swap...
