It looks like a green sno-cone was dumped into a cooler.

That sucks. Sending good vibes to him and his family.... But what does he look like? Is he that guy that talks on the news all the time about how good it will be on the weekends?

Sorry for the inappropriate language....Just so amazed at the weather!

This is some fu*ked up shit right here. You know its a bad winter when in PA there is snow in mid April, and at Jackson Hole, and other places out west, its 60 degrees . Well, I believe I have snow/sleet on the ground from last night....just a coating, but its nice to see it whiten up a bit.....Its enough to give my school a 2 hour delay! Whats happening in your hood?

Unwritten Rules of the PASR Camelback Message Board
ColoradoHigh replied to jdew's topic in Camelback
Camelback isn't the best mountain. Then again, its the worst. Bad snow conditions. Always crowded, rude employees, and the list goes on.. -
You know it....

Rendevous Bowl was a bit to challenging for me. My dad did though, and he had a hard time. I just got back from getting a burger at the Snake River Lodge. On the way back to my hotel (Teton Mountain Lodge), I saw the most drunkest guy EVER! He was walking down steps, and he was stumbling with every step he took. He even dropped his skis... It was so funny!

Well, this was the last day of the ski season for me. It was a great season. Lots of cold weather when it really counted, good snow, and skiing every weekend. Today at J-hole, it got slushy really quick. It snowed about 2 inches at the top, made for a nice surface. Under it was frozen groomer trails. As the morning progressed, the snow got stickier at the bottom of Thunder Chair. But at the top, it was packed powder. Nice stuff. So after about 3 runs, my skis needed a good wax job, so I waxed them with a candle . It didn't work to well, but an improvement non-the-less. At around 12:30, I traversed over to Casper Restaurant, and ate outside. Heres a funny story of something that happened at the cafeteria...: A chef and I talking: Chef: Dude, you know how in McDonalds, you get a nickel and put it on the table, and then get a pepper shaker and smash it on the nickel, so the bottom of the pepper shaker breaks? Me: Nope... Chef: Okay, so do you see that guy in the next booth cleaning the glass shelves? Me: Yep. Chef: Go to him, and ask him for the pepper shaker. Me: Okay. (SO I walk over to the guy, and ask him for the pepper shaker, and he gives it to me. As he is picking it up, all the pepper gets dumped on the cleaned glass shelves. It was hilarious!) The guy: Oh my god. Me: The chefs made me do it. Chefs: Good job dude. That was brilliant! Me: Yeah that was pretty funny.. So yeah, thats it. I laughed so hard. EVERYONE that saw it, cracked up. Then after lunch, I skied back to the Thunder Chair and made three more runs. I couldn't ski till 4 because the snow plain old sucked. It was sticky, slushy. Especially at the bottom on Sundance. It took awhile for me to get down, because that corn snow/slush was so heavy, I just couldn't do it.

Yeah, I'm having fun. I am loving it out here. Sunny yesterday, and Tuesday. Sunny again today. Blue bird days at Jackson=AWESOME!

Don't want to be a wet blanket already, but....

But this powder was very heavy. But the next day, it was nice and fluffy. I skied some tracked out light powder the day after the storm (Yesterday-Tuesday). But what ever. I am still having fun.
-
I am enjoying myself. I just don't like powder that much yet. Keyword 'yet'. Alright, for today, I got to the Gondola at 8:35 am, and we were the first in line. We also got first cabin of the Gondola, and my dad and I were the only two on it. I did many laps off the Thunder Chair. For the first 30-60 minutes, the clouds were out, and made everything look invisible (trail wise, on the groomers). It was the flattest light possible. I was out of it for the fist hour and a half. But once the sun came out, I was back to my skiing self. We went to eat lunch at about 12:45, and ended at about 1:10-1:15 pm. The snow got so sticky, and it made my skis jerk back and forth. It sucked. Same with my dads skis. We need to give our skis a good waxing tonight, so they can be ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow, hopefully I can keep skiing till 4:00 pm. I quit a bit early today, because I was really satisfied in the morning. But it turned slushy mad quick even on the top. That was another reason I quit early today. I didn't take many pics today. But then again, I haven't been taking many pics at all. But I will take as many as possible tomorrow.

I doubt it will be open. But it would be nice. I wouldn't be there. I would be resting from skiing at Jackson Hole, and sleeping late because I don't get back home until midnight on Friday. And thats when my plane lands

Good for you. But I never went out west when I was 11. I was skiing very rarely at age 11. And plus, I am not that physically fit. I am a bit overweight. So its harder for me to ski as good as alot of you guys. So shoot me, an overweight 16 year old skiing. I mean, I am not THAT over weight, maybe 3-4 pounds over. But I still have a gut....

But I'm 16, I am not yet advanced to ski the bowls, or go tree skiing. I am still learning all that stuff with the pow skiing. I'm still learning to ski period. I am still learning to ski period. I am not the worst skier out there, but not the best. I guess you can say, I am more of an intermediate/expert skier. I can ski anything between one blue square, to a double black diamond (At Blue), but out west, I can ski a single. Anything harder than that, I will shit myself. EDIT: CaptDave, I was skiing the pow. I was on the mountain from 9:00 to 2:00pm... Powder all day. It took me a while to get the hang of it. But I still need a few more pow days. I need powder skis as well.
-
This powder was heavy. I've never skied TRUE light, fluffy, in your face powder. This kind was not it. So, I guess I just don't know how to ski in powder. But the groomers are still nice. What so bad about them? Skiing is skiing. No matter where you are at, what trails you go on, and what kind of snow you ski on.

I just got in from another great morning/afternoon session at Jackson Hole. Since it snowed almost over a foot, and it cleared up last night, it got down to the single digits or teens last night at the mountain, the snow got all the moisture pulled out of it making it very dry and soft. For my first run, I did the run right off the Bridger Gondola, to the Thunder Quad, and then I skied to the Sublette Chair for Groomers Choice run, Randevouz. IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE! Perfectly groomed, soft silky snow. It was a dream.... There were so many trails that were groomed to perfection. All had the silky fast, soft snow. It couldn't get any better...Or could it??? It stated awesome at the top, but when I was skiing to the lodge, it turned into a slush puppy. Tomorrow, I am hoping for more of the same. I will post pictures when I get home after thy trip.... EDIT: I didn't get winded at all today! I felt great. I wasn't tired except when I decided that I'm done for the day. No more Altitude Sickness for me...
