Faceshots today. Damn it was so wild. I definitely blew my load all over Rustler. The snow was sooo good too! Not very windblown seemingly bottomless except for a couple rocks.

why do you even have to say that? hah It doesn't matter what year it is in utah. That's why no one usually posts about utah snow because everyone already knows it's gonna happen, a lot.

I submarined today. not a face shot that made me giggle, like i went under the snow and popped out, thinking i was drowning cause i couldnt even breathe. dropped this line with ski patrol closing the horseshoe bowl about thirty minutes ago and they said,
TBAR opens tomorrow at 1030.Lappin pow runs, on what kind of day is tomorrow?

I'm pretty jealous, I'm sitting in a rain storm in Vancouver while the sweet little skiff of snow that was sitting in the north shore mountains is getting washed away. But on the bright side, at least Whistler is getting shat on at the moment!

I totally agree. Watch yourself, and for gods sake, wear (and know how to use) a beacon.

Although, the snowpack is WAY more stable than last year...which was pretty much ruined by this time. Not that means its safe y any means. Common sense goes a long way.

i don't know about that, i bet we'll see a lot of avalanche activity in the next few days

those first storms left us with a bad facet layer in some places, a bad melt freeze crust in others, and some surface hoar too
