Good write up...I've been going to Big Sky every year for about eight years now...Some of my friends live out there..some work Big Sky and some work at Yellowstone Club...but with out them I would have never discovered some of the hidden gems there...It really is an awesome ski area...I have yet to do the Big and some of the gnarlier A-Z shutes... The place is just one big rock...even with a decent snow pack.. It funny last year I went round trip for $400...This year it's $600...I think there is a direct flight from Newark like once or twice a week..but I could be wrong..I do a one stopper in ORD..fly outa ABE...and I flew Delta once and it sucked..You know Delta stands for Doesn't Ever Leave The Airport... Glad to hear a report from there...I leave in two weeks....

The past few years I've been staying at the Village Center....I dig that it's ski in/out...When I'm on ski vacation I don't want to pile stuff in the car and drive or ride some buss to the mountain...Plus they have a breakfast buffet that is effin killa....This was the view from my suit last year

If your into Thia food Lotus Pad is good...Check out Lone Peak Brewery..Whiskey Jacks has pretty good nachos...Gallatin Riverhouse Grill on is good also....all these except Whiskey jacks is down in the valley....

No way they go into April...They have a wine festival on the fourth of April so they won't be open...need space in the lodge.... If the crowds are good they may stay open to the 29th....One can only hope....

Moonlight might be your best bet since it's more north facing...A ride up Challenger and down the Headwaters might be in order..I always thought Moonlight had some good tree skiing...The Madison base area is a cool place for lunch or a brew....as is the Moonlight main lodge....Do you know if the North Summit snow field is open?

Did like five or so miles on the SRT today.....

I'm going there in like three weeks.....it's a wonderful place.......first time going there?

Just a stupid fun day at BC...Between 9 and 12 it was just puking snow...Prolly in the 5-6 inch range..maybe more...Topped of with some brews....

I always see a couple of guys ridin alpine boards on the weekends....it's kinda become the fringe side of snowboarding now....

Thanks...It has Libs C1 camber tech which I've never had a chance to try....Couldn't resist the price so if it's not for me I'll just unload it.... Gonna ride Big Sky/Moonlight/Bridger next month.....

Two brothers from NH developed the Teleboard in the mid nineties...Google search will fill you in....I couldn't quite figure the thing out when I saw it from the lift...The guy riding the thing was pretty good at it....

Picked this up for a trip west...

I've read/heard about these but never acually saw one in use ....until today...made it look easy...

No crust,very ridable... Some Dogfish 60 minute and Oak Barrel Stout on tap finished the day....

Good morning at BC...Everything groomed out..which sucked...Bumps were really nice..just love the bumps on a board...The quasi boarder cross run is pretty fun too ...

Bumps were great today.....

Sorta like this guy.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sH-2f4n92Qw

Freakin crowded this am....

Touring on skis is so much more fun than running in the winter..Got out today for a couple of miles..

Got the touring skis out this afternoon....went about four miles to help break in the new boots in.....Forgot how much work it is breaking trail though thick snow...

I was surprised they left as much as they did ungroomed....Place is small ,so in no time it was tracked out...Good riding for couple of hours though..Pretty much go where ever you wanted to...

Around eight inches in the BC area....On my deck this morning..Light snow right now..Prolly get on the touring skis this afternoon..

Cascade....
