Some inbounds uphill at the BC ....Up Timberline..then about half way to the B lift on the old trail that's still there but never open....Then ride down and skin back up...Wet snow about 8 or so deep...Was fun to get the skins on again....Did about 4.5 miles.....Fairly quiet most of the morning....

Is uphill travel relatively new there or have they always allowed it? I don’t ever remember seeing anyone doing it in my years as a passholder.

 Really good conditions at BC tonight....They produced some product last night,so there were some decent sized piles here and there...and It's kinda cool they let you ride on them while they drain....Big school night...Couple of times the line stretched..Even the stoner college kids runnin the lift were helping fill chairs....Coverage wise they are back in the game for a lil while...But still need to do some work here and there for a solid base...Fun evening..

Reports of 11" knee deep western style powder. Reports come from friends that are regulars in UT and CO every year. One guy commented it was as good as anything out west he has seen. last time BC saw snow like this was probably about 17 or 18 years ago. And yes, it got very crowded today- all lots filled.

I bet there were some spectacular tomahawks on the steeps..and glad to see Bc is making Johnny cash…

Some nice fast snow at the BC tonight...Rode for about an hour and a half...Not a lot of people there...I bounced at 6:15 and the parking lot looked like it was filling up....They got some good coverage from the past storms...and it looks like they are making snow...Was a fun evening session....

3/5/25 Robins and Running water. 
Bought a Flashback day ticket but didn’t get there till after 4:15 , too late for any contest. My old stretch pants are very absorbent “ Vintage 1982 “ I did get some laughs from some of the older employees. 
I’m amazed I could barely still fit on the last clip. Skied my old Kneisel magic star skis. One run and done, just to skinny for the slush. 
 

Looks bleak, F lift side is clinging. I got a run down the last 3’ wide strip on Sasquatch . Skied nicely considering.

Way to get after it, they’re open Blues not..what year are the vintage skis you were on and what length?  

Kneisel Magic star . 82/63/76 180 s 

I haven’t been able to find much information on them. I found them at a yard sale 15yrs ago $15.00 still in plastic. I mounted some old tyrolia 350’s . There’s hardly a scratch on them. I’ve only skied on them three or four times.
