Popular Post NMSKI Posted March 2, 2020 Popular Post Report Posted March 2, 2020 Had a nice first day in New Mexico. Saw a beautiful sunrise then went for a nice run/hike/scramble and then hit Marble Brewery and La Cumbre. Will head up to Taos Ski Valley in my pimped out rental Suburban tomorrow. Will try not to break any levers in the car like I did in Jackson. View from my moms backyard of sunrise did not suck at all. 14 1

Popular Post NMSKI Posted March 4, 2020 Author Popular Post Report Posted March 4, 2020 Day 1 of 4 at Taos Ski Valley is in the books. Today was a warm spring day but everything up high over 10,500 or so was still winter conditions. I lost my phone at about 9:15 am, and then I miraculously found it about an hour later. Was skied over for sure and it’s a little fucked up but I was still able to take some pictures. West basin was closed for a free ride comp, but I did 2 Highline Ridge hikes, once to Ninos Heroes and once to Juarez. Rode the Kachina Peak lift twice also and hit the dogleg couloir which was extremely steep, really rocky and hard snow and it scared the shit out of me. Won’t ski that again this week. Next time up was K2 which was amazing. I had to ski off of a pretty huge cornice into the chute but the snow was real good and a sustained steep pitch for about 700 or 800 vertical I would say. skied Al’s on my way to the St Bernard for lunch and some other old favorites after lunch like Castor and North American. Skied for a bit with my wife and mom on groomers as well. Coverage is really good and the groomers are really nice. Should be a great week. I’m on my way to bronze god status also with the bright sunshine. base area and als kachina from the top of the ridge looking up ninos heroes top of K2 looking back up K2 Scenery, etc 10 1
toast21602 Posted March 4, 2020 Report Posted March 4, 2020 Bronze God status 😂😂😂 Amazing that you lost your phone and then found it again still on the slopes somewhere. Clean up that camera so we can see the bronzed up @NMSKI we know and love. 1 1
NMSKI Posted February 2, 2022 Author Report Posted February 2, 2022 Starting to keep an eye on the weather for my trip in a few weeks. Based on the completely buried snowstake this morning, I'm jealous of whoever's there right now! 8 1
