Finally we had a real snow here! I tried XC skiing from my house but since there was no base I went right down to crunchy gravel. Walked over to the air strip (grass) and did a lap. It wasn’t great, but it was nice to be back out there in some capacity again. Aspen has 3 baby runs open and before this storm were showing a 3” base all manmade. Some more snow due this week, hopefully it will help

First morning below 20 degrees.

Abasin opens tomorrow.

Got our first dusting that hit he valley floor.

7960’

Aspen mountain webcam this morning. Raining hard 3 days straight. Had a bit of wet snow changeover for a bit here in Marble.

There is snow on the way for Colorado! Tonight into tomorrow snow line looks to be down to 9500’. Chris Tomer said Longs Peak (14k’) could get 6-12”. Happy first day of fall.

The peaks got snow last night

I reallY am over the snow at this point. My friend went to Winter Park today (still open) and said it was like cement and hard to get through. Highly doubt we will get those totals but have been waking up to dustings to 2” several times this week.

Jeff, you really are next level bougie. This is very cool.

Just saw this video. I watched this guy ski down this line last weekend. He had a spotter go ahead to make sure all clear, then a guy videoing him. He was amazing to watch.

Just finished up probably my last day of the season at Snowmass. At 9am snow was already soft in the sun, but round a corner of shade and you hit ice. Hit one spot around a corner and there was all brown with one section just wide enough for skis plus a mandatory frogger hop over some rocks. Hard to see from her but this is where I stopped. Temps were 60’s with a brilliant blue sky. Stopped at the new “Cabin” for a bathroom break. Bathrooms were fancy! Had fragrance jars on the sinks. So Aspen-y! skied onto every lift, nobody there. Closing weekend next Saturday, but I feel like I got my fill today.

More pow stashes today. Bonus that I got to see @Johnny Law’s pink pants in person!

Winter is back here. Got some decent snow. Crickets at Snowmass. Powder stashes all over. Was really nice. started out in sunshine, then clouds and light snow. Buttermilk closes 4/6, Highlands 4/13, Snowmass 4/19 and 4/20 for Aspen Mountain
