@Dirtwolf and I did some inspection today. 800ft vertical foot run near Blue. Needed some more snow but was good enough for the wiggle.

Nothing remarkable about today. Razors was 11/10 on the first run, but the glacial ice popped up on the second run. Everything else was a little chunky. Shouldn't be complaining since it's not even Jan 1 and they're going to be 100% but conditions were better on Monday than they were today, despite the low temps.

Today was awesome.

The few times I've been to RT on the way home from the DC area, I've seen people tailgating. Parking doesn't get any closer than it does there, though. The place is nothing special but somewhere new is always nice.

I'll be there

done

i will get the new year started

That's from the top of Gowdys looking into the Cirque. BTW, the photo you posted for GSS from Feb isn't the Cirque, that's the Hanging Valley Wall.

Yes I was in Aspen recently. Skied with @Barb. Was great seeing @Barb. Skied two days at Snowmass, two at Ajax (lapping the new Heros terrain constantly), a day at Highlands for Cloud 9, and a quick session at Buttermilk.

right, but you'd still need to buy the blue pass.

what do you think is going to change, besides the price going up? ikon will be 5 or 7 days. only ikon places that are unlimited are Alterra owned resorts (aka KSL capital). Blue is owned by KSL Resorts. All KSL resort properties are just partner resorts with 5 or 7 days. as for the ski carry ... you should thank me for trying to help you. very ungrateful.

lol ... have fun elsewhere.

Conditions were awesome this morning. Packed pow everywhere.

Quick test last evening of an easily accessible and relatively smooth "backcountry" PA line not too far from Blue with @mute1080 @Dirtwolf and @mbike-ski. Topped out at near 18 degrees, so figure middle of Paradise? Maybe?

today was tits mcgee boner doner ... great midweek conditions at blue with light crowds.
