sibhusky Posted March 21 Author Report Posted March 21 Day 59. The best snow was where you could see the least. Of course. Decided to bag it at noon. Can only take so much of chair 2. PXL_20250321_151531965.mp4 3 Quote

sibhusky Posted March 31 Author Report Posted March 31 1 hour ago, AirheadD8 said: Mongo snow ball contest? Near as I could tell, it rolled down the hill on its own. I was on a lift on the opposite ridge when I saw it. I think it was kicked off up high. Then these guys came down after it and it looked like they were sculpting it into a jump. But really, that means that slope needs closing. I don't know why ski patrol wasn't chasing them off. Similar but slightly steeper areas on similar-facing ridges are all closed because of avalanche danger. If this well-pounded slope is shedding sections that way it's not safe. I've been next to an avalanche years back. Missed being hit by seconds. 1 1 Quote
sibhusky Posted April 3 Author Report Posted April 3 Day 68. Third winter continues. A gift of a day as far as snow quality - ankle deep and light - but high winds and equipment issues (mine and the mountain's), along with exhaustion, meant I didn't take full advantage. 2 Quote
sibhusky Posted Friday at 08:44 PM Author Report Posted Friday at 08:44 PM Day 69. Sunny, but conditions held up. 2 Quote
sibhusky Posted Saturday at 08:09 PM Author Report Posted Saturday at 08:09 PM Day 70. Hit goal for day count. Don't normally ski Saturday, but... goals. It was pretty nice. Crowds showed up late. 3 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted Saturday at 08:42 PM Report Posted Saturday at 08:42 PM Sibhusky do you do any sort of season ending party with your skiing buddies? Quote
sibhusky Posted Sunday at 07:50 PM Author Report Posted Sunday at 07:50 PM 22 hours ago, GrilledSteezeSandwich said: Sibhusky do you do any sort of season ending party with your skiing buddies? I mostly ski alone. I might ski a run or share a lift with others I know, but, like me, they don't like "pack skiing." People party on the mountain in costume and get drunk. I exit when they start dong stupid stuff. My locker room buddies are all busy emptying their lockers. Most are, like me, old as dirt, because there's an 8 year waiting list and you're going to be pretty old before you think you want to pay that kind of money, then you have to wait for one of us to die. One couple I ski with is back in Florida, emptying their house so they can move here in May. But I expect we'll see them all year round once they move. I guess other than them, everyone else is an actual LOCAL. Like, I'll see them at the grocery store. It's not a metro area. People don't vanish. 1 Quote
sibhusky Posted Sunday at 09:16 PM Author Report Posted Sunday at 09:16 PM Day 71. Closing day. All goals met and exceeded. I hope next year I can say the same. Only stayed until noon. 4 Quote
