AtomicSkier Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I just received a text from Nazareth Jay, he's claiming boot deep today at Aspen...pretty nice first day of the season for him. Hopefully we get a report and some photos from a magical place!! Was he done for the day when he texted you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NazarethSkier Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Talk of the town right now: SNOW! It has finally arrived and conditions are great. I played on Ajax yesterday and put in a solid days work. Legs/Thighs were screaming - a mixture of powder, first day on skis, and hard terrain had me shot. Fun day. Took it easy today and had a fun day skiing with my wife at Buttermilk. 14" of snow fell in the last 24 hours and groomers and trees were excellent. Temps were ice cold...but bluebird conditions made it tolerable. Note: hot chocolate at cliffhouse was superb as usual. On tap tomorrow: Snowmass or Highlands - sorry no pics...have no idea how to post from IPad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you're having fun JO. When are you going to Little Annies? The beef stew is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicSkier Posted March 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 time to bump this for stoke...just booked 7 ski days in Aspen. Guest appearance from JohnnyLaw this year. I think the two Johnny's and I are on the same flight out of PHL. We're leaving March 27th. Didn't want to miss Blue's closing weekend 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomicSkier Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 awesome view of some of the most legit terrain at Highlands including the bowl. T-minus 3 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicSkier Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 conditions on saturday looked pretty good....GR Fielding enjoying them. For those who have been at the top of highlands...it's a pretty special place...nothing like watching the sun rise at the top, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordan Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Looks like dust on crust... literally...a dust storm blew in last week, and now all the snow is dirty. Its also melting a lot quicker due to the darker surface. what an awful winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicSkier Posted April 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 literally...a dust storm blew in last week, and now all the snow is dirty. Its also melting a lot quicker due to the darker surface. what an awful winter Just minor traces of the red dust. Pretty white overall. The last few days have been some pretty good spring skiing.

AtomicSkier Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 So despite only getting an inch or so during 7 ski days, skiing Aspen/Snowmass is a blast. The roaring fork valley has become a special place. Four distinct mountains that each offers a totally different skiing experience. I even had fun at Buttermilk. Ajax is a technical gem that looks small but skis big. Highlands for the steeps and the bowl. Snowmass for its sheer size: 4400 vertical feet and 3100 acres. The last day, Johnny and I skied all the stuff we usually ski, but didn't previous days due to snow conditions. We even found some new lines through HV Glades that make Baby Ruth look wide (yes, hop turns required). Snow or no snow, Aspen rocks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
