Beware the ides of March.
This was the second year my ski season ended 3/15.In 2002 I shattered my foot.
This year obviously was worse.
Big Mt was smart to shut down quick. 80 very short days due to chronic knee pain.Scheduled for both knees to be replaced this month and august.Next year is a...
Castle and other Alberta ski hills closed by provincial order. Local hill Blacktail will not reopen wednesday. Hard to believe but Snowbowl still plans to open tomorrow.
That area of Idaho is easy to fall in love with the great hunting , fishing , wilderness lifestyle. I enjoyed both hills good snow , moderate terrain , low density . Powder day line ups mostly seniors. Hope you enjoy your new home. I may live in MT but I vacation in ID.
Saturday 2/16 Alta reported 11 in. new .Wow, It sure seemed deeper.We had a great two hour powder race , then ran into the APP and bobbed around the hill in the pm. Thanks everyone.Today was day 9 and all I really wanted was one good shot at Devils Castle. We waited almost an hour for the...
Wednesday AM Snowbird was on windhold so went Alta and skied Collins and Wildcat all day with increasing snowfall.PM was getting good.Thursday at Snowbird had 6 inches of thick cold cream , very tasty. With another 6 overnight we thought it would be good.Today 2/15 was the greatest sleeperday...
8 inches Monday at Snowbasin was fluffy fun, with an early arrival we got second gondola and lots of untracked snow, what a great ski hill.Today's wind created some fine wind sift.We just arrived in Cottenwood Heights for 6 nights.
Will be skiing Alta /Snowbird.
APB for the APP.
Thanks Tram for the offer, but we're on the MC pass, so PC is out of the price range.We know about the crowds,if we wanted empty skiing we would have stayed in Montana.Today at Pommerel was super fun low angle powder, drive to Ogden was dicey.
5 new on the Sun Valley report was deeper at opening and snowed hard all day.Super light 10 degree snow made for body massage runs. Plenty of coverage on Baldy made off piste really great.Will be skiing Snowbasin Mon-Tue.I'll be on the lookout for the APP.
My longtime friend and ski buddy, tele Dave and I leave Friday for a MC pass trip south. Here's the plan.
2/9 Sun Valley
2/10 Pomerelle
2/11 Pebble Creek
2/12 Snowbasin
2/13 through 2/18 we have a spot in Cottenwood Heights and ski Alta and Snowbird, hopefully meeting up with Admin and the...
Thanks for all the euro posts and pictures, great snow is pretty special over there.The last time I skied there was 1978,wow I'm way overdue.Good timing on your return,things are looking great for Sierra and intermountain west.
Ski all the great places driving to and from,or fly and do a Castle,Fernie,Kikking Horse loop.Whitefish is fun medium size hill with plenty of tree skiing on all aspects.This years snow 90% of average,25"-75" base.
