NazarethSkier Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Posted February 22, 2010 Jay, you should have taken me out there as your photographer. That would have been great. I took all my photos from my handy iPhone. The quality of the photos are poor-fair but it's great because I hate carrying gear. It captures the moment just fine. Quote

NazarethSkier Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) Hello Everybody... It was another powder day here in Aspen. Today I got reacquainted with a favorite in Highlands. I had my itinerary planned out and it proved successful. Everybody heads to steeplechase and temerity early. I did the same but ventured over to olympic bowl after my 2nd run. I lapped olympic bowl with an older local and we exchanged high fives after our fourth run and we went our separate ways. One more day in Aspen and then I'm back to Blue. Powder Day! 10" of new snow fell overnight. Legs were tired but once I got in line for the chair lift it was game on. Today's conditions were amazing as it was waist deep on my first two runs off steeplechase. Runs today...Exhibition & Loge Peak(garmisch to bariloche), Deep Temerity(kessler's), Deep Temerity(broadway to no name), Cloud Nine(aerobie), Cloud Nine(aerobie), Cloud Nine(why not), Cloud Nine(alps to I-70 to t-lazy-7 catwalk to sherwood forest to nugget to park avenue to limelight), Thunderbowl(golden horn to thunderbowl) 2/22/10...another powder day...this is getting old 2/22/10...Good Morning from Highlands...where dreams do come true 2/22/10...1st run of the day...my line down garmish 2/22/10...2nd run of the day...my line down kessler's 2/22/10...sherwood's forest...I was looking for GSS conducting a safety meeting...he was no where to be found 2/22/10...Honeymooners in Aspen!...Wife is a Blue Mountain Ski Instructor-Husband is a Blue Mountain Race and Ski Instructor...They were a chair lift behind me on Temerity...so random 2/22/10...BMR stoke shot Edited February 22, 2010 by NazarethSkier Quote

AtomicSkier Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 they should just build a lift to the top...who wants to hike that far? Quote
Johnny Style Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Oh no, it looks like Johnny Style heard about the new snow. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 what have i gotten myself into Quote
AtomicSkier Posted March 1, 2010 Report Posted March 1, 2010 Looking good for travel on Saturday...and for snow while I'm there http://www.snowforecast.com/coloradofcst/aspen.html --Next Friday (5th), and into Saturday the 6th, a high pressure ridge mostly dominates the weather with some clouds (low confidence, we may see another storm). By Sunday (7th) and into the following week (10th) 2 storms affect the area with snow each day. We will watch and see how this sets up. The unsettled pattern over the west should keep the slopes fresh through mid March at least. The rest of March and most of April still look potentially snowy. Quote
burton71 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Posted March 2, 2010 Hope that snow heads to Montana, I'll be in Big Sky for 2 weeks starting on the 9th. Quote
sibhusky Posted March 2, 2010 Report Posted March 2, 2010 Hope that snow heads to Montana, I'll be in Big Sky for 2 weeks starting on the 9th. I'll be curious to hear how they are doing. They are the other side of the divide from me, I heard complaints about ice about a week ahead of our complaints. BUT they are higher and get different weather from us. IT SUCKS HERE IN WHITEFISH. Inspo was like a bowling alley with marbles today. Almost like being back in the Poconos. Thank god we have the "back". Quote
AtomicSkier Posted March 4, 2010 Report Posted March 4, 2010 Looks like my travel day into Aspen is going to be clear. My first day at Aspen might also be bluebird with 8"+ Sunday into Monday with snow continuing Monday and Tuesday. Quote

They picked up 6+ inches yesterday with more in the forcast for the weekend and next week. They seem to be doing pretty well. Quote
