I'm only bringing one set of skis....go with the 112mm vs. the wimp east coast 94mm, right?

Thanks all.

Heading to JH Wednesday. Skiing Thur. Fri, Sat, option for 1/2 day sunday with a 5pm flight. Looks like it gets warm in the valley during the days, cold over night. Which aspects will be best first thing? Head to the top in the AM till the bottom softens up? Also, kind of fuckign freaked about traveling through this escalating virus stuff.

Why have a demo day on a Tuesday?

I drove to Moe Ghoul's house to buy a case of Heady Topper off him a few years ago. Last time I was there with my daughter I saw you guys all heading for the lot as we were heading for the lift. I'm sure it was you all. I yelled something like "Sauage Sunday" but you guys were on the move.

Went to Montage for the first time ever - which seems impossible. Had fun. great bumps on white lightning and boomer. Shame the pitches are so short. Good snow. Males me wonder if Blue has either bad snow making, grooming, or just a lower elevation. But much better man made. Nice lodge. Low crowds even with the holiday. Nice time.

I just paid to change my plane flight to give me three full days and option for a half day sunday. Looked at the calendar and really didn't see any chances to get far enough north for good skiing, so this seemed wise.

N. Vt is killing it. Everything south of K-ton seems to suck.

and no one followed you in?

so who here has skied Corbetts?

Can't be much steeper than falls. And probably has better grooming.

Looks like a condo walking distance to the Teton Mountain Lodge where some of the group is staying. So which side of the trail map is north?

Fucking hell, yeah, exactly. Middle of March. Trying to figure this out now... Unfortunately, looks like I can only swing Thurs - Sunday. So just two full days of skiing, which kind of sucks. But I could fly out of PHL or Newark....PHL and I can arrive at 11:30 and try for a half day in teh afternoon, or I could fly out of Newark and have a 2:30 departure, which means maybe 2-1/2 3 hours on the last day. Thoughts on the best bet there? I'm inclined to think squeezing the half day morning in on the way how is a little safer bet. The morning flight out would have a connection in denver, so that could go wrong and screw things up.

thanks guys.

Why the hell do I live in NJ? This is dumb.

Hey JH folks....is it possible to ski till 11:30 on the last day there and make a 2:30 flight?

You should not eat that cheeseburger.

What's the weather for sunday? Some talk of this next system turning into snow.....

Thanks - yeah, I should consider a connection flight from PHL....

3/11-15. seeing some for 725 now...

My kids skied liberty bowl off teh tram because they had a private lesson.. That was the only was down - low snow out there right now. Every time I wanted to ride the tram, the line was crazy or visibility was zero. so never made it. Bavarian Forest, Badlands, Dakota Gully off teh Dakota chair were all great. The bowls off powder seeker and the steeps off Challenger lift (Big Rock Tongue, 17th green) and the Headwaters Chutes were the steeps I skied. As fun as the steeps and bowls were, I thought their trees were incredible. I'm seeing flights from newark for $800 to JH as the cheapest I can find for my dates.

Yeah, for you it would be killer - don't you go west twice a year? That would be a huge savings. Though Jackson Hole isn't Epic - is it Ikon? I don't know... Side note - as a family we went to Big Sky for the first time last week. Awesome mountain. That is Ikon. And the locals on the lifts all said Ikon increased their traffic significantly. Mixed bag though, because the added traffic is leading to serious upgrades in lifts, which they all appreciate. But they thought the mountain was crowded. By crowded, they meant 10 minute lines at the base I guess...singles line was line 5 minutes. Upper mountain lifts were all ski on. Second side note - couple of friends are going to JH in March and I'm trying to adjust schedule to join them - any secrets for cheap air fare? Won't have the time to drive from SLC or Bozeman. Direct the JH is pretty pricey, but I guess I won't need a car once I'm there?

How much is a season pass? That would be a big negative to a buy-out. Season pass becomes the Epic or Ikon rate....

Predictions on Saturday snow totals?
