I’ll be there Saturday with the “Chair for Death 2.0” thanks for the buddy pass salty.

Nice, how is the snow holding up? I haven’t been around for a while.

Is that an abandoned car ? It’s in all your pictures.

Geeeze !

Left Nesquehoning 4:30 moderate snow Allentown nothing but now heavy snow 1/2” southern lehigh country.,

Wow 3years ! I I remember paying $250.00 for 10k vertical. I was two and a half runs ,the weather turned sketchy on the way out. The clouds were obscuring the peaks but the pilot was great and knew the area really well. We cleared the last pass with 200’ . This happened the day before we went. Owner of Sunshine Village. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Thomas_Scurfield My last run near the bottom I started a small slide in a drainage on the way back to the helicopter.

Very cool, I was in Banff in 1985 and the only 3 options were Noriquay , Sunshine and Louise. It hadn’t snowed for two weeks so we didn’t hit Noriquay . Sunshine was getting some snow due to the Chinook winds. Always wondered what Noriquay would be like. Thanks for the stoke! We Heliskied one day which was awsome, we flew up the Srpray river valley,they picked us up in Canmore behind a restaurant. The town was a really sleepy place then but now looks pretty upscale now.

Winter…..better late than never. Blue looks like 3-5”

Yeah I was behind a Patroller friend one night at Camelback we were cooking pretty good . The wind was blowing steady which sent the new snow pretty far away from the guns. The technique was stay upwind close to the guns at least that was the plan on paper. Until one gun malfunctioned and put out water. I can still see him flying through the air and his skis stuck to the ground. Fortunately I jumped over the bad spot. He was hurting but nothing broken. Glad your foot is better.

F lift ski on till I left. B lift 2 minutes. Maybe it’s longer now but I got there early only skied for a little while. Snow was extremely variable, kept the legs stiff to prevent front seat/ backseat.

I’ll be early . Thanks

Fun couple hours this morning getting glazed by the snow guns. Nice to be scraping my goggles off again and brushing the chair cushions before sitting down. Any other season I’d be whining about inconvenience. Got to use my Head gloves thumb feature, perfect for cleaning of the lenses. Sasquatch was nice but with one of the carpet slopes was closed so I couldn’t lap Sasquatch. Cool wave clouds , mentally surfing them.

I’m thinking next Saturday if you’re around.

I wonder if ticket prices will hit $400.00 lol

The math done added up 🙃

Maybe tonight, I have to think the cross over is melted out so lapping Sasquatch is no longer an option.

I was going to take a couple runs last night before picking up my kid but forgot I took my pass out of my jacket when I went to Elk ,so I had a Beer at Trails end instead . I was surprised when I pulled in that the coverage looked pretty good considering this weeks flame thrower . Are there bumps on Grizzly yet ?

@saltyant Do you like Yoohoos in bottles or cans ?

I need 3 confused emojis but there’s only one button.

Ugg “Little Gap” flashback. I can remember driving through 9” of snow to get my skis out of the instructors shack to ski elsewhere because they closed early that year. I have to believe they’re looking at cold in the forecast and a couple storm signals coming up . Hopefully the base hangs in till then.

Sweet

Thanks Planning on last day festivities for sure. Hopefully the weather gets cold soon if not I have a bad feeling about spring or the lack of it. I forget which year but similar to this weather we had a really cold April and May. I have some outside work to get ready for flying season and want to get it done before the good weather kicks in. Last week of April to the first week of May is usually prime time.

Sounds good, been pre occupied with a sick family member. I was waiting for a quality day at Blue. Planning on some mid week days once it’s cold enough for some snow making weather. I’m old and value quality vs quantity . I’ve done my time on ice coast trails.
