Tell me about this shuttle, I'm considering staying in Frisco instead of copper or brek because you get such a great deal there.

Enjoy it! Should be good skiing everywhere.
Frisco to Breck shuttle is super easy. Look up Summit Stage. They have live tracking on each bus too.

Anyone ever gone solo without a group? Still fun?

Peak 6 looked like a scene from game of thrones yesterday afternoon.

Breck gets way too crowded.

I love skiing solo. Go at your own pace. Chat with people on the chairlifts. Always good conversation..
If you are thinking of Breck, check out The Bivvi. It's a hostel, but real nice and always a ton of younger people staying there and drinking in the common room. Easily could meet some people to ski or hang with just at the Bivvi.

Breck started off solid today then got fricking miserable between the crowds and wind. I forgot there's a thousand reasons I try to avoid that place

Yep got a bit windy.
And peak 6 did indeed look like a post battle scene on game of thrones, on Bliss I was dodging people who fell every 50 ft or so. Once you hit the black stuff off the groomers no crowds though.
They really should make all peak 6 black. Not that its difficult but it is more difficult than other blues at breck and a lot of those people have no business being up there.
Chair 6 was nice. Peak 10 nice.

The first few runs I got on chair 6 when it opened made it all worth it 
ETA - I agree with everything you say about peak 6. I made one run down it and it scared me back to chair 6

What a miserable douche

Love peak 6. Can't wait till early March! Grand Lodge on Peak 7 is my heaven for a week
Totally agree with what has been said about Peak 6
People get up there thinking blues and have trouble getting down
I talked to a guy who lives there on a lift ride last year and he said something about them having to label it that way to get it opened

Vail reporting 15" last 24 hours.
En route back to CO now. Should be stash spots for weeks after these series of storms is done. El Niño bringing it.

Jackson Hole getting dumped on as well. Can't wait to get there.

Copper tommorrow. Steamboat Tuesday through Thursday. Gonna be some good skiing. Glad to be back. Just as the crowds are leaving.
Real excited for what they've been opening at Copper off Storm King. Hope they drop some more ropes in the AM.
Jackson Hole will be a next season trip for me. Unless I get a wild hair later in this season. Never ski'd it. Really trying to make Tahoe and Park City (maybe twice, brother lives there) happen. I'd be happy with two out of state trips. Both on my Epic pass too. Though if I get a powder day in PC, I'm going to Alta.
