Don't miss it. Another amazing weekend at SnowmassSubmitted by grskier on February 13, 2008 - 4:18pm. extreme ridingSo, after an amazing week of snow (around 40" last week I believe), the sky cleared once again to award us with another bluebird weekend. The snow Saturday was very fun, with fresh still to be had (we were getting some first tracks until almost noon). Our crew spent time in a few different spots on the mountain this weekend. Saturday was spent skiing a few runs off the Cirque, a few in Rock Island and Burn Side Cliffs, then we headed over to Hanging Valley Head Wall where we took a few laps.

Terrain opens, lines are sent, and people inevitably progress... did I mention it was absolutely bluebird! Snowmass continues to go offSubmitted by grskier on January 23, 2008 - 11:05am. extreme ridingI had the privilage to get out the last 5 days on Snowmass with a whole grip of different people. Friday was pretty mellow as the light was flat but there were still pockets of fresh if you knew where to look. I spent the day showing some friends from Taos around a few stashes (which delivered days if not weeks after the storm). Saturday was bluebird in the morning which ment we'd look for some lines. Going out with Dave (of Nitro fame) and Greg made for a good day (look for some shots of Dave and I in the photo gallery) with some fun lines skied. Sunday was more of the same but a It seems like it has stoppedSubmitted by grskier on January 14, 2008 - 4:35pm. extreme ridingBut it's only just begun! Well, now that we've gotten our average for January, after a absolutely killer December, sunshine is the name of the game. Snowmass is skiing amazingly right now! There is great coverage in a lot of areas (but be careful dropping bigger stuff, always probe your landings!). |
