  1. Decided to change it up today, and ski after work, as I had a lot going on today. Skied for about 90 minutes...enjoyed some sunny groomers and some double diamond extreme terrain. Like @GrilledSteezeSandwich said, I love the sun, and I was enjoying myself today.
  2. Looks great boys!
  3. Trash is out! I haven't had a ton of time to explore yet. Friday will be a longer ski day for me I think, so I'll start exploring more. I've just been enjoying the soft-ish off trail snow, and same fast groomers.
  4. Silverton. I skied amazing stuff there...so jaded now šŸ˜‚
  5. yathatsright ... i'm good for awhile. if i ski sunny CB groomers for the next 3 weeks I'll be happy.
  6. Daily update .... more lunch time skiing. Pretty gray/flat light today, so it was 3 and done for me today. Was nice to get out, make a few turns, and enjoy the fresh air. Rumor is that @mute1080 is going to get his butt to the butte.
  7. @GSSucks's jorts are worth their own cover.
  8. lot steeper than whatever meadow you're skiing on any time soon šŸ˜‚
  9. Nice day for some lunch turns. Could get used to this šŸ„°
  10. lol just watched your stupid video @saltyant. i'm glad i can be your idol, both in biking and skiing.
  11. Skied for a few hours this morning at Crested Butte. Got in line around 8:45am, and was surprised when they started loading around 8:50am. I was at the top for after my second lift ride by 9:15am šŸ˜ Goal today was to just cruise around, get the lay of the land, and get familiar with navigation. Rode most of the lifts seeing where the good terrain and good groomers are. Few observations: 1) I think I'll do my daily hour-ish of skiing at noon to get full light on the mountain. My dark lens let me a little blind at some spots first thing šŸ˜Ž 2) The views are spectacular 3) There are some serious cheese grater rocks out there šŸ˜³
  12. I love skiing pow. What can I say?
  13. šŸ˜‚ BTW - I said ā€œmilk thatā€.
  14. Hike to. I made a few pow turns this AM before setting off for Montrose airport with @NMSKI. Was about 4ā€ at the elevation I made it to. Some nasty weather enroute, but made it in 1h 45m. I was planning on running in Montrose but the weather was such shit. Weather looked better in CB so figured Iā€™d run there. As soon as I left Montrose enroute to CB, the weather really improved. Sunny skies prevailed for most of the drive. Now at @Barbā€™s place in CB for the next few weeks.
  15. Awesome boys! @GSSucks @mbike-ski ... Way to get after it. Wish I couldā€™ve joined you!
  16. What a great start to the Road Trip. Itā€™s been a fun week with @skiincy @Barb @Johnny Law @NMSKI so far. My first Tride day was a perfect blue bird day. The boys first day at Telluride was an unexpected 10ā€ diamond dust powder day. Silverton was fucking boner doner tits mcgee. @NMSKI said he even saw titty sparkles. I plan on skiing a few pow runs tomorrow AM before heading to the airport with @NMSKI, going for a run in Montrose, and then heading to @Barbā€™s place in Crested Butte. Iā€™ll be there for the next 3+ weeks. Iā€™m hoping to see @mute1080 at some point. My buddy Tom is also flying out for a few days. After that, Aspen most likely. And to finish this off, it wasnā€™t perfect powder skiing at Silverton. On the lower part of the heli drop, a tree ripped my pole right out of my hand. I wasnā€™t pleased.
  17. Where was @GrilledSteezeSandwich? Why no report?
  18. Sorry @GrilledSteezeSandwich ... yesterday was anti-climatic compared to the day prior. We shall see what today brings. Last day for the boys!
  19. Some additional shots from the heli to/from the airport. ā€œStandard Briefā€ Town view & runs down into town as we departed the airport Circling approach into Silverton Town of Telluride The accommodations Heavy iron at TEX
  20. They're amazing. Best reports ever. However, I do sense a small bit of FOMO while @toast21602 skis the power line, and while we're out skiing Colorado. You'll get your turn ... just relax. As for action shots yesterday ... surely you can understand that there was only one person on a slope at a time. No opportunity for anyone to stop to get shots of anyone else skiing by.
  21. Any time @Barb. I bet @theprogram4 would never do anything like that šŸ˜
  22. Not as many woo hoos in this video, but lots of excitement, swearing, and a few gems šŸ˜ Enjoy. The second half of the one run where Iā€™m not skiing as much pow as you think I should is because our guide asked us to figure 8 his line to help correct some bad lines from a previous group. I also fucked up recording the 3rd run.
