LCC closing at 7PM

[Deep Days]

Wait, wait, wait... Let me get this straight.

NWS is calling for ANOTHER foot (probably more) of 15-degree snow, on top of what that Snowbird's picture of the day of the patroller looks like? And some people are up there and are gonna get to ski some of that tomorrow? And it's gonna be mid-20's and possibly bluebird?

Really? I'm just not sure I can comprehend that...

I'm pretty stoked myself, and I'm 1400 miles away. Try not to lose your minds...

Driving out from truckee tonight to join in on the maddness at the bird tomorrow. What should I expect, late opening and little terrian or full on swimming through steep and deep? If you wanna give me attitude for encroaching, save your breath. Just seeing what locals think tomorrow is going to look like?

ALSO, cheap ticket deals anyone/ anyone have vouchers to trade for sweet cali greenery?? PM me if so

I would be surprised if some stuff didn't open on schedule tomorrow, though the canyon may be the relevant factor for you.

Depending on the differential between lift openings and canyon opening I would expect lightly to heavily tracked lower mountain amazingness. Maybe some gad 2, maybe some of the mellow tram/peruvian stuff.

Thursday/Friday more upper stuff will likely be running.

If you have a Costco card there are 2 for $100 tramless tickets available.

just about out of booze at the snowpine, but also we just closed for the season. which is nice.

FYI.
Soli was more crowded than usual today, but it did not suck. I usualy prefer LCC, but having a pass to all 4 cottonwood resorts does come in handy some times.

Is that a single pass? If so, details would be appreciated for next year.

I went up to Snowbasin today to try to avoid the crowds in BCC. No lines or waits, but the snow was pretty heavy. How were Brighton and Soli today?

[smuggs]

I won't be the one to let your secret out considering there's usually a waitlist and all, but you don't have to limit yourself to the cottonwoods with your pass

[truth]

They just started bombing again. That was def the big gun. Damn that's loud from a north facing cliff room.

Thats not it either. Its the cottonwood canyons foundation Deep Powder Pass. 30 days each at Alta/Bird/Soli/Brighton. And its fully transferrable. Can only use it once a day though.

Just a little more than an alta bird. It works well since I have friends that ski both canyons.

Nope, that's not it either. His is a double-secret probabtion type deal. Yo Will, we ended up doing a couple afternoon laps on Middle Slope that featured chest deep pockets and face shots on every turn. Snow was still coming down hard when I rolled out at 3 PM.

edit - Nice. You need to keep that shit on the DL.

Really?

Early bird gets the worm, err face-shots, whiteroom.

It's April, high sun angle, any sun hit at all will do a number on the snow (& slidey, slidey). Hope for cold, cloudy, flurries mañana.

Today was awesome. Deepest day this year for sure. Fun to ski with so many old faces from LCC. If terrain can open before the sun destroys things the next couple of days will be nuts.

I repeat my last statement.

[DeeAre]

Incredible. I'm smitten.

[ectreeskier11]

park city was fun today. it most certainly wasn't snowbird, but it was skiing. hopefully tomorrow serves up the conditions to jump of something BIG.

We were within the first 5/6 that dropped in on the gate from powderhorn to summit and 4th chair on summit. Deep does not do today justice.

Hope the stun stays away long enough tomorrow to make for a good morning.

I got mine today... hope you all get some tomorrow!

i hit that gate right about the same time, retardedly deep and untouched top to bottom... gonna try to fight the masses at alta tomorrow...

What time this that gate open? Was that area (and summit) hammered by the end of hte day?

[skifishbum]

There's no possible reason to justify going to DV.

Ever ski there are are you just running I didn't git any today interwebz smack?
Took my complimentary silver pass up there and skied decent terrain in multiple feet of fresh pow and never waited for a lift.
Beat the hell out of sitting in a car at the bottom of the canyon or interlodged.
for me after 13 years of sillytude when it wasn't mutitude
and terrain used to open prevents me from wanting to deal with that shit show
Where to go mannana?

[Tippster]

Fucking 90 degrees in DC today, and I was in LCC for the start of this epic Spring cycle.

FML.

[Utahrd]

Gave up on lcc at ten and headed for the canyons.
heyzeus blessed my decision.
lapped peak 5 all day with no waits in the lines.
deepest day of the year--makes me recall the white blur that was last year in lcc.
9990 didn't open.
skiing deeps all day beats anxious waiting, but damn, the the canyons is a low-angle real estate shit show these days.

see y'all in the nooks and crannies of granite tomorrow AM. gotta love the lcc lurk.

[sfotex]

DV sucked hard today.
