I've been out of loop lately with traffic cdot/google/waze shenangians, wife was going to bring the kids up to basin for a few hrs into close while I get in a hike. Google telling us she has to do...

Taken just now from Wildernest neighborhood Silverthorne.

Was out early last yr due to bad injury, @ about 80% now, plan to be back on skis next wk or so. Last 15yrs, always CO/Epic pass holder with wife. Didn't get Epic + Abasin passes this yr because of...

Perhaps I'm out to lunch and it's par for the course, but today around 1pm, spot a semi going up EB i70 eisenhower with just chains on the rear trailer wheels. Nothing else... def no Turing in that...

Not risking it, going up tonight when the window looks ok. The clueless i70 riff-raff tends to shy away from late night mid-wk snow. Cruiser just got fresh Nokian Hakka LT2 315's, needs a proper...

Will jump in & confirm, yep, that's Pilot mt.

Wife and I drove back to Den this am, rule 15 was active silverthorne->tunnel. Some circa '92 Buick f'd up the flow (full-stop @ tunnel) with what looked like all-season touring grade. Per Rule 15,...

Bit pissed OpenSnow did some Taos exposure, now everyone is gonna flock. Since that's outta of the bag, any thoughts on Salomon extreme champs @ taos this wkd? Will they rope **everything** off on...

Summit, you nailed it there. It's a f'in disgrace. Even my elderly parents (upstate NY residents) out for a holiday visit remarked about all the left lane/sub-speed limit/speed matched camping here...

Similar to extendseat.com (good service, used for a 2008 4Runner Sport w/powerseat), I had a bracket made yrs ago for drivers side in our recently sold 2000 LX470. Installed myself in a few hrs. Got...

Around 115pm today, have never seen such heavy snow in Dillon/Silverthorne. Quite the squall. At least a dozen incidents up and down I70 back to Denver, including the pile up. Abasin skied solid.

That strangely ties into the plot sequence from the film "God Bless America"(2011).

If you want to witness decrepid souls of society, look no further than the commentary section of Liveleak.com....

Yeah, caught your upload a few years back... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyJjG_-6NWg

Jackson, without question. Had this same decision, wasn't too difficult after a little research. Jackson/Targhee under the hammer, already 8-10" @ 8500ft. Enough moisture moving in for 5+feet by Sun...

Another off to JHole tomorrow @ 5am. Locked in a real low last minute rate for 3 night/3 days ski.

Converging on forecasts for 45" by Friday night, insanity by Sunday. Snorkel packed. Wife...

Dr. E B... people are pulling your leg & you're falling for it. You'll either find it childish (most of it is) and leave, or you'll learn to ignore. Try the latter. You've received some good advice,...

72hrs of consistent -30F, and apparently that is not even enough to get them all. Bastards they are.

Saw a single snowboard track on a center finger on MLK day not too long after Pali was opened (near noon). Nothing short of 90mph gusts that very morning. Solo in terrible conditions, brilliant. Same...

Left Breck yesterday after getting 6 early untracked runs. Great snow early, but very much question their 37" 48-hr total after digging a few pits in closed off wind-isolated & un-skied areas @...

Loveland/Breck/Abasin should be in solid shape. Abasin Montezuma untouched today, but would wager it'll take some time in the am to clear it. Lots of wind load. It's been bombing light fluff @ 9600...

This is so sad. Condolences to the family and friends.

Does anyone know if this is the same Kyle S that bar-tends @ the Cheeky Monk Denver Colfax?

Not sure I'll have the stomach for any bc...

Tx for info guys.

What are your thoughts on using standard xc nordic ski's with scaled kicked zones? Grade of road allow for this, or is it better to use a rando setup with full out skin? The...

Hey...was wondering if anyone had any reports/guesses on condition of road to Maroon Lake under the Bells? Understand road was just closed, but anyone know how frequent people lay x-cross track up to...

Great vid. Never surprises me why Coombs loved Chamonix so much.

Most everyone outside Paris are different than Parisians. It's a similar myopic view foreigners take of Americans: they think...

Should ski big today. Looks like we will get esp strong snow late am.

Be careful out there folks. By end of today, 3-4ft in some places over last 5 days.

Wearing beacon inbounds today.

Snow starting to touch down now on pass per friend who just passed through. Hoping we can eek out 6-8" in the next 15hrs and storm ride it till close.

I'm heading up in a few hrs. If it's a lame...

Hmm... question of the afternoon = take off Tues or Wed? I'm favoring Tues at this point for some storm skiing @ Vail.

Has the latest Fri-Sat snow set up at all or still nice & soft? Fri was a...

Nice, he picks them out at 4:03 for those interested. Top-sheet looks great, I'm sold on that front. My French is sub-par, but it sounds like he only talked about dimensions and wide waist?

Not...

Sister just gave me a ring @ 315pm. Said there was 8-10" in Blue Sky & Mongolia zones, "felt like a foot already." Very isolated orographics on this one. Snowing real hard when they left for the...

Tx. Topsheet looks solid.

Yeah, hoping no changes here as well. My favorite ski these past few years.

Curious to see what the '11 Goliath will look like. Any structural changes? I have the 08-09 model, will possibly look to replace with next years model.

Did a search on the forum, no luck.

Tx.

Not ghey.

Recall that some of the Norwegian nordic pro team have the highest VO2max's of any athlete group. Bjorn Daehlie (the king of xc) was pegged to a 96. I'm a heavy road cyclist and a long...

Vail orographic snow was absolutely .... YouTube- Scissorfight - "Balls Deep"

Best day of year. Avalung came in handy.

Falling hard for hrs here in DTC. No sign of letting up. Cold! I really may ski the dam @ CC res if we get another 6"+ on top of the foot already on ground. Forecast keeps getting bumped up......

I laughed.

Took us 3.5hrs tonight to go downtown Denver to Silverthorne via 285, 9, Swan Lake, Silverthorne. 9pm - 1230am. The passes were fine, toughest sections were right at initial climbs into foothills...

F*ck, they closed 70 down. 285 still seems up and running!

Anyone wagering on possibility and/or timing to an Eisenhower closure? Roads look clear as of mid-day Fri. Looking to head up tonight.

Looking out of my office in DTC, hot damn it's bombing outside. 100ft visibility max. Haven't seen blizzard snow like this in a while down in the metro.

Great work Matt! Need to make it out one day to LCC to rip around with you.

I'm wagering tom will approach epic, not fairly good :D Temps tom will stay in high teens, low 20's where it counts with sun. Per bud in Vail back bowls, currently in the single digits, white out...

Best ski I've been on, and I've been on almost all the good stuff. I'll chalk this non-immediate sale off to slow time of year for ski sales and people pinching pennies due to econ contraction. If I...

$97 @ Vail is the definition of insane.

Mannix, tx for great info.

DSL speed all depends on your distance from the DSLAM, usually located at central office. I'm in DTC area, use Qwest DSL as a backup feed, close to the office, and find it very fast, extremely low...
