Spent last weekend in mammoth, where it snowed 3 feet in one night. It was nuts!
Im gonna head to squaw valley mid week next week. Should be nice and quiet. After that, Skis are going up for the season unless there's some surprise snow in May.

Off peak 5 chair there is a side country gate with some really awesome trees that were untouched. This booter was at the bottom, right before you got back to the resort runs. Had some awesome hits everywhere. We hiked Square Top and Dutches as well. Amazing snow still at like 3:45 pm for our last hike up Square Top.
Supposed to get some deepness this week. Just paid someone to cover my shift to haveTuesday off. Hitting Beaver Creek or Vail. Gonna ski Breck tomorrow for a few hours on a break from work.
Have some time off before my golf course job starts up in April. Gonna head down to Crested Butte to use up my 3 days there.
Closing in on 100 days for the season. Tomorrow will be 82.

lucky dog.
The last few times ive been the snow has been shitty. Last week in Breck it was like skiing on concrete.
Hopefully we get some good powder this week.

Ski bumming it has it's perks. Im definitely burned out on delivering ski rentals right now though Working two more weeks at the ski shop before taking some time off and then moving to the Boat. Hopefully my turf job in Steamboat will become year round in the next few years and I won't have to scrounge seasonal woek.
I really want to stack some savings this summer and spend January/February of next year just road tripping around resorts. Plenty of passes that offer a a few days at a lot of resorts. Mountain collective is like $400 bucks and gets you two days at a ton of great resorts. 50% off any days over your alotted two at the participating resorts.
Definitely buying an Epic Pass again. Hopefully getting a Steamboat pass through work next winter.
Cosmo, where you staying in Silverthorne? That's my hood. Mile north of the Targer.

Dummmmmppppp city.
Keystone reported the most at 14". Making the tough decision of skipping Vail for a drive down the road to Keystone.
Everyone is back in such a good mood now. Gonna be an epic day. I paid 50 bucks for someone to cover my shift. Well worth it.

Eh. Driving 15 minutes for first chair with more snow was worth it for me. Vail Pass was probably a shite show.
Keystone was amazing. Had three best powder runs of my life in a row off Ruby. Opened up a run of untouched snow. We rolled up right as ski patrol dropped the rope. First down and made a few laps before anyone noticed it was open.
Took a nice core shot to the Soul 7s today. They've lasted through a LOT of shite without a core shot.
Should only get better the next few days before the weekend dries up a bit.

I'm Vail bound within the hour
I had to cancel my last minute Tahoe trip to finalize a new housing situation in Boulder. Pretty bummed about it but also pretty stoked on moving to Boulder in April

Tomorrow should be super nice if tonight pans out like predicted. Working tomorrow and then back at it on the slopes Thursday before I fly home that evening.
Boulder is nice. Almost went to Eldora a few weeks ago.

Vail was sick today. A little windy with some icy spots, but great day nonetheless. I didn't think I would ever say this but almost too much snow in places. I got stuck a few times and it took a whole lot of energy to get out
Posted on 3/16/16 at 4:33 pm to HippieTiger
I'm headed up Friday - staying in Silverthorne. Vail Saturday, gonna hit the beach at A-Basin Sunday

I had some buddies out there yesterday and it looked amazing. They hiked East Vail and had some gnarly pictures to show for it.
Heading to A Basin or Breck tomorrow. It's dumping pretty nice over here now.
Only shot anyone from my group got yesterday at the Stone.
