They blew a ton over night. Exhibition had pretty large whales on it and they started blowing on Thunderbolt this morning. Snow was much better in the trees (Happy Land and One Park glade) - still not skiable top to bottom yet. Snow was good - man made chalk is always nice. Oh and it was nice meeting you VinnyV.

Dan the man coming down Demattes.

Back from Day 1 at Jackson Frost. Met JFDan and Phillycore at the bottom of the quad after a fast run down Dematte's. Dan, Phillycore and I lapped Demattes and Challenge for the next few hours. Snow turned sugary as the day went on. No ice or cookies to be found. After lunch I switched from my PE's to Phillycore's Nick Greener's and we lappped challege and Demattes for the the next few hours. Today was lots of fun an hopefully the start of a great season.

Not as of this post.

How deep was blue today? Anyway its a sickbird day 1 at frost.

Actually let it be known that I coined "trashketball". When it becomes a worldwide sensation, I want credit for coming up with the name.

Yes that is a "trashketball" net.

Skied for about 2 hours making laps on Love Park trail. Snow conditions are really nice - man made packed powder which turned sugary as the night went on. Snow was very fast. I was hoping for Boulder Park but it was not to be - it looked close though. Pics to follow.

Kinda like you over-run every thread with your stupid posts. And the jackets are brown (not black).

Should have a lot open too.

This is true actually. I drove past blue this morning and there were a few patches of white under a think fog. With a high of close to 60 the next few days there will likely be nothing left. This is getting depressng.

Theres no way that they could have opened this weekend. Its been unseasonably warm.

Stoked!

Alta, snowbird, Brighton

That's cool but the price is right horn FTW.

Utah in February?

Congrats - Place looks sweet.

Just picked up a pair of Dalbello Axion's - Much needed. My current boots have seen well over 200 days.

have you ever been to squaw?

You mean he'd have to ski in Pennsylvania in the mean time (gasp!)

Utah is winning. Listen to the voice of the people my friend.

Nice Moe - We must have just missed you guys.
