  1. can you imagine if you had to do line control at Vail? 🥴😳😬
  2. Awesome trip report. Way to get after it, @mbike-ski I've done laps skinning up camelback while echos of people yell "you're going the wrong way." You're trip looks way more rad than my most recent skinning adventures...
  3. everyone reading about the powder stashes, first tracks, and face shots .... thanks to this thread, I've been checking out flights to Jackson for the past 30 minutes or so...
  4. True. I met some people in a parking lot at Blue a couple weeks ago. I grew up skiing and teaching kids at BB ski school. Spent 10 years out west skiing in CO, UT, and California. May not be the fastest skier but I know about the best breakfast burritos out west.
  5. Neither are good and both are overly hyped. Their food is really bland. It tastes like it could be served in a Philadelphia public school cafeteria. Blue Iguana feels like a chilli's turned into a mexican restaurant. And, Red Iguana feels like it could be in fishtown and has a much cooler atmosphere. If you're in downtown SLC, be sure to get a breakfast burrito from Beto's. They don't speak English well. It usually doesn't show up when you search for "mexican restaurants" in Google. It's legit. You can get a monster size delicious breakfast burrito before skiing. https://betosmexicanfood.com/menu/breakfast-burritos
  6. The Holiday Inn near Grand River Junction, VT was huge. It had covered parking and could easily sleep 6 people for about $120/night. Only downside is there's no hot tub. As @Schif's lifestyle photographer, I captured this before we left.
  7. Adding to @Schif TR report The Stag Rack is awesome. I know a bunch of people who use it in the PNW, Colorado, and Utah. It's more than just a suction cup. Check it out. It's easy on and off and significantly less expensive than a traditional rack. https://www.stagrack.com/ The top of Mt Ellen was wild. The headwind made it feel like the mountain didn't want you to ski down. It was only a little cold...... Here's a short video from the top of Ellen. https://imgur.com/9r2bQhm But, it wasn't all ice and white out conditions. Early in the day at Sugarbush, there were clear views and open runs.
