December 16th would be great.

I feel your pain. I feel like I've had some years where the snow just doesn't cooperate. I've had 2" in 7 ski days at JH with extremely crusty conditions. The last place you want to be when it doesn't snow and it's been warm. But, one run down Amphitheatre (yes, the intermediate cruiser) at Jackson Hole first thing in the AM after it's been groomed is my guilty pleasure. One run down that is better than a week of skiing at Blue to me. I have over 100 days out west in the last 12 years but the power day (> 6") percentage isn't great. It's the nature of the beast. It's another reason why I like longer trips (7+ days) opposed to shorter ones. Greater chance of pow. We had 9 days at JH last year, and it led to the best run of my life. I've had a 21" day in VT, but I'll take a 12" day out west any day.

How was Aspen?

I just finished up the post season maintenance work on skis, including side wall planing, and setting the edges on my new Kastles. The edges on those things are polished to a mirror finish. I take the diamond stones to all the skis, hot wax/scrape then storage wax on all the pairs of skis for the summer. Was probably 4 hours of work for 3 skis (the race skis were already done earlier in the season). I like having nothing to do but scrape next winter.

Enjoy GSS.

Donald Trump will make winter great again.

I'm so glad so many people saw our Challenge descent from the lift. That was the most technical line I've ever skied at Blue.

no it's sunday...closing day. -
Sounds like you need to keep more food at home. At least, an emergency health meal. When you don't know what to eat, open the refrigerator, and create something. It's a lot healthier than going out.

And I see you unfriended me (at some point). At least you take your privacy seriously. -

What? I condone people taking responsibility for their identity and privacy. If you friend people on Facebook that you have never met, then you clearly don't care about your internet privacy. I deleted the picture. You're welcome.
