Just read the tft report. So glad you're OK. As someone who doesn't do that sort of thing, it sure is amazing and scary stuff.

Nice shots, Rob. We skied Vail yesterday as well. It was pretty cold and windy, the powder was light and the windpack was fun. We flew home last night. Had to contend with a bit more snow than we expected on the drive to DEN and barely made our plane. #-o Where was your second...

Sno, check out DSES next time you're at Mammoth. Randy bought a pair of fairly fat (95 underfoot) B3s for $100. This will allow him to get a better idea of what he might enjoy in a fatter ski. They have some snow boards as well.

Just booked 2 trips from LA to Denver, one in January and one in February. Thanks for the info.

Patrick sighting, on the long line for G2 in late morning. TR to follow when he gets home. ??? [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

Keep an eye out for the skibums over July 4 weekend. We skied the last 4 days and will head home after skiing tomorrow, then return around July 1. It's still a lot of fun. [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

Do I dare post in this thread? 60 days so far, all at Mammoth, no one run and no split days. Though I do admit that the first day (when Mammoth opened for a 3 day weekend in October, then closed due to lack of snow) was probably only 4 or 5 runs. [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

Must drive to Mammoth ... [ Post made via Mobile Device ]

There's a pretty good chance that spring will be arriving on Saturday May 29. :bow:

Very possible. I can recall at least one time that the right side of the path down to Cornice was taken up by racers, who then turned to go down the right side of Cornice. The left side of Cornice and the ski down were left open for spectators. The course began just a short way past the...

Tony, I was surprised by that early announcement as well. Although there are a couple of storms on the horizon, Mammoth has no way of knowing whether it will get very warm in late April or early May. They can lose several inches of base a day if it is hot enough. Do you know if they've ever...

Socal, the pictures of you skiing and the powder are great; the last 2 pics, with you and Ski Patrol, not so great. Sorry you were injured like that. No one should come into a liftline with sufficient speed to knock you down. If both bindings released you were hit very hard...

We are headed up this weekend but may have to return after the next storm (let's just hope there is a big storm soon!!!).

Don't know if anyone has posted abut this web site yet, but they are having a big sale on Zeal goggles starting tomorrow (they say up to 60% off!). The site is called "The Clymb", and It is similar to SAC and Tramdock, but for members only. Here's a cut and paste from the invitation info: I...

We are fortunate in CA in that Mammoth opens as much as they can by Thanksgiving, rather than Christmas.

I've been wondering whether the amount of rainfall received this past summer is any indicator. Is it normal for a wet summer pattern to continue into the winter? :dead horse: As I sit here nursing my broken thumb, I would love to see some indicator that it's going to be a...

In general, A-Basin and Keystone get less natural snow. Vail and BC get more, sometimes twice as much. Don't know about Loveland since our Colorado Pass is not good there. Which Front Range areas tend to be in the forefront of open terrain prior to Dec. 1?

EMSC, we all like pics - particularly of fall colors and SNOW! Thanks. What is the earliest that Loveland and/or the Basin have opened? I'd enjoy seeing a list of their respective opening dates since both areas began making snow. Also, have they ever opened with significant natural snow and...

That's great!!! =D> I'm so glad the snow has started to fall; I think we're all going a little crazy right now. ](*,)

Any idea when A-Basin will follow Loveland's lead? The "Snow Plume Refuge" cam looked pretty nice this afternoon, and the Basin has had snowguns set up for at least a month. Is there still a race to open first this year??? Anyone want to make any bets on which resort will be first, and the...
