    Wait i thought mammoth was the best resort in the lower 48? Am i mistaken? :stir: I am willing to bet that high rustler was about the only spot that didnt get "wet". Even at 3:00 stone crusher was getting pretty heavy and damp in the sunny spots. Sheltered snow on skiers left side proved...

    As Marc_C asked..where did the 10% discount come from? This isnt everyone that dines there for sure so either mention that in your "price total" or its still bunk. Typical meal there is more like what Marc_C mentions...i'd say roughly $20. Yes its "nicer" but IMHO takes longer and just isnt my...

    Going to call bs on the $10 including a 30% tip at Rustler. Now I agree its a decent value, however you're making it sound cheaper than anything else on the mtn. You said that salad costs $8. Add taxes and a 30% tip your already over $10. Add a $3.00 soda and we are approaching $15 easy. $8 +...

    Bob are you a mechanic? I know this name from another forum and just making the connection. Nice to see you over here posting? Much "quieter" over here as opposed to the other site :-) Thanks for the update on DA bird.

    Alta In-bounds Avi - Collins Lift Closed

    from my understanding 3 partially buried all recovered. there were individuals on site right away as there were skiers in the area with gear. Beacon searches came up empty. Sunspot area. Couldnt see a damned thing as the clouds were covering everything. Glad all is well.

    FTO Member Andyzee..We lost a good friend

    The community has lost a friend. I will be cross posting this to the eastern forum as that is where Andy was from. Andy was an avid skier on the east coast. I believe mostly a Killington regular and all around Vt'er. Probably some hunter/ windham/platekill/etc thrown in the mix as well. I...

    Snowbird Spring Passes/Tix

    yeah the $42 deal has been going on for a few weeks now. I believe that on or about May 17 they go to 8am-2pm schedule. I honestly don't see them going much past Memorial Day if at all past. For the few more days I will ski it'll be the $42 pass with my alta pass. M

    After admin and bobbyd left amyz, myself and telejon did 2 eagles nests. Then telejon and I did 1 last garbage chute to cap off one of the best days of the season. We found soft snow and still some untracked even in those obvious spots. April delivers.

    NEVER seen it like that. Borderline dangerous.

    Alta, UT 3/2/13

    It's not really as steep as it looks IMHO. The entrance the skier in the pic took was just a perfect run in. I dropped right down what looks to be a vertical face in the pic. Smooth edgable chalk and just a short side slip down not your first turn. 100 feet in you hit the soft stuff and it was...

    Hailey has been on skis since age 2 with me and a ski trainer. Problem was she wanted to ski 2 runs and play in the snow. With an organized class including her peers seemed to make her want to do more. I think 1 or 2 more organized lessons and her and I will be hitting the slopes on our own and...

    Arrived at about 1230 to get Hailey all set up for her first lesson. LEft her about 1pm and skied about 5 runs before I had to grab her at 3:15. She had a great time and so did I. Highboy was the highlight of my day. Chalky, smooth (skiers left). Did it from the top to the lift non stop, boy...
