One trail from the top has a consistent pitch equivalent to PA black/double black for about 3000 vertical feet. It is groomed so it was rated a Blue. A big mountain with lots of variety. The history of the resort is cool... the place to Be for the rich and famous movie stars of 40'sand 50's. Warren Miller spent his winters in the parking lots. But....we did get burned by sketchy conditions both times we were there

No Epic for you!

I like this. Glad to see you coming around!

Fuck off.

Just go...Wyoming/Montana/Utah/Colorado...Where ever.....You will never regret going.....but you will regret not going

Did you see Serenade in Sun Valley?

Nope I unblocked you for a minute.

Oh Dougie I thought you blocked me? Couldn’t resist my posts, huh?

I heard the Jaindls

STFU

I wish Matt Edge was my fifth grade teacher but he was only 12 when I was in fifth grade.

Yeah his name is Larry. He’s an Internet troll..I’ve called him out before in the liftline at blue.

And I didn't tell anyone to go there. I said I enjoyed the shit out of it and will definitely go back, and then you decided you had to shit on my opinion for no reason.

No it's not. That's not how objectivity works. You could say my opinion on whether Steamboat is as worth is at other Western resorts is not as informed as yours or others, but its no less objective. It's also not what I said. In fact, I could say your opinion is not objective because you are more advanced than the terrain at Steamboat and so are unable to give it a fair evaluation as a destination for an intermediate.

My only regret is not not going to the hot springs when I was there.[mention=1572]phillycore[/mention] was down too. Should've went. Read so many good things about it since that trip. Anyway...Steamboat was fun but don't necessarily see myself going again anytime soon either. Lots of other places that I've yet to visit or want to visit again.

Sunrise from the deck this morning

What have you been snowboarding for 25 years? I don’t even really think most of Jackson hole is that intense most of what I ski there is on the upper intermediate to advanced side of things which I find a lot more pleasant than skiing at Blue..I’ve only skied a few of the double diamonds at Jackson hole all deserve their rating. Jackson is good because it’s close to the airport, cheap lodging, reasonably priced food and drink...and it snows a lot more than Colorado mid winter. Honestly and @NMSKI can attest to, I find crossing the streets in Jackson hole to be more challenging than most of the runs. It’s cause they don’t use salt and I’m a dumbass for walking around in adidas. This year I’m getting those crampons that go over sneakers.

Can I get in on a Western trip this year? I think it's finally time for me to get my ass out that way. Even if it doesn't work out that I can get on board with any of you guys, I might just do the solo skifari thing either out of Denver or SLC. The time to plan seems like it's now-ish.
