We're (wife and I) are supposed to head out from Idaho (by road) for a week on Feb 11 and hit 49*N, Red Mtn and Whitewater. It's not looking good with the recent stretch of very warm temps, rain and lackluster bases'. Looks to get colder over the next week, but not a lot of new snow. That...

This is gonna be interesting. Especially in the mountains and deserts where up to a foot of rain is possible, along with 50+ mph winds. Last tropical system to hit socal was in 1939.

I don't normally do many trip reports, but got some time tonight and thought what the hey. I had 2 day passes left to use, and have been trying to get over here from ID for the last month... but the stars never aligned. I had a cold this past week, but was feeling better Tuesday, so wife told...

Just last week, Brundage announced plans to expand terrain, and add overnight lodging as well. If done right, I think it will be a good idea. Brundage is seeing increased visitation from the explosion of population in ID over the last several years. https://unofficialnetworks.com/2021/01/ ...

No damage to infrastructure, but it has burned 60+ acres. The lift structures in the photo are roughly at mid-mtn. Cause undetermined, but likely someone doing work on the mtn... IDL, USFS or Tamarack Resort. https://www.facebook.com/IDLFireInfo/ph ... 735715881/"...

I hope to go there in a month or so with my MC Pass to see for myself what the mountain is like, (albeit in a poor snow year). I have expressed some interest to the wife about looking into property near Ridgway perhaps in a couple years, so it would be considered my home mountain if we did move...

So our latest travels look to take us to Pagosa Springs, CO in our search of our long term home. In the last 5 yrs, my wife and I have lived in the mountains of Socal, Leavenworth, WA, Driggs, ID, and Whitefish MT. There have obviously been some great ski areas in those places, namely...

Well, I finally made it back on the mountain after my Dec 3rd crash, which left me with a concussion and 3+ weeks of headaches. With help from the chiropractor, I haven't had a headache in 4 days, so decided it was time to get back on the saddle. With the holiday crowds starting to wind down...

After a week and a half of bluebird and every other day of riding nice PP groomers, we finally got the storm cycle going again. Although, we only got about 22" out of this storm (2-3 ft predicted)... it was still nice to get more base and obviously some powder. Went up for a couple hours this...

The wife and I packed up and moved from Leavenworth, WA to Alta, WY this summer... very excited to have Targhee as my home mountain 8 miles away. So far, we (wife and I) love Teton Valley and the surrounding area. I have only ridden here once, on a trip to Jackson about 13 yrs ago. It's been a...

I live in Leavenworth now, and Mission Ridge is about 40 minutes SE of me near Wenatchee, WA. The dozens of fires in this area were started by lightning a couple weeks ago. The fire is indeed threatening the ski area. While the article below from yesterday is optimistic, I got some firsthand...

Several yrs ago, I was at the Bird on Presidents weekend, and it wasn't "that" busy. I don't remember liftlines being anything more than a few minutes at most. I don't know what the other places were like though as I was staying exclusively at The Bird . The lady and I are considering coming...

So I've been to several of the ski areas in the general SLC area, and I'm coming back with the lady sometime this winter for probably a week, to hit the rest I've not been to(Powder Mtn and Brighton) and a re-visit for me to Snowbasin and the Bird and maybe PC). Let me first say that I realize...

Hey guys... We are headed out in late August from Socal on our way to the northern Rockies for a couple weeks. I will be picking up the lady in Park City where she has a convention.. then heading east.. and then north. Was going to possibly make a stop in the Uinta's for a night and 2 days… and...

Nice Utah Lite pow day... resort reported 6", but there was more than that in the town of June Lake... probably a good foot on the hill, even a little more in the wind blown spots. The wind kept the refills going. too lazy to post pics, but here's a few on this link...

I hear ya on the local ski days.. I'm 5 min from the lifts at MH, but have 3 times as many days at Mammoth so far this year, 5 hrs away, then I do here in Wrightwood. Now, MH is pulling their closing East crap again midweek, right when I usually kick it into high gear locally. :roll: Can't...

As fellow skiers/riders.. or just someone that has ever felt like that paid for a service/product and feels they didn't get quite what they paid for... I ask for your support. Yep, true.. after having one of their best holiday sales periods ever... selling out the better part of the last month...
