PSUFrankenstein Posted April 3, 2019 Report Posted April 3, 2019 Waiting at PHL airport now, plane boards around 6. Flying into Denver and then staying in Silverthorne. My buddy from Steamboat is meeting me tomorrow and staying a few days. Plan is Arapahoe basin tomorrow, Copper Friday, and Loveland Saturday. My Saturday night flight home got canceled so I'm staying in Denver Saturday night and heading home on a 9am flight Sunday. I'll try to post pics over the next few days and some reports...probably more pics when I get home as I tend to use my camera instead of the phone if I can 7 Quote

It’s an easy drive. Hour and a half max. Quote

PSUFrankenstein Posted April 4, 2019 Author Report Posted April 4, 2019 Fished a bit this morning...dropped one fish, caught none and also fell in a snowbank. My friend is running late so I'm on my way to a basin in a few and ill meet him later 5 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 Did you need to get a fishing license? Quote
Shadows Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 I was told to get a fishing license cause it includes search and rescue for skiing and such. No idea if that's true. Quote
PSUFrankenstein Posted April 4, 2019 Author Report Posted April 4, 2019 Yeah I bought a 1 day license and I can add extra days if i want. Got on the snow around 10 15. Light crowds and about an inch of fresh. Hitting some stuff off the black mountain lift to warm up. 3 Quote

Expand Yeah I am gonna try to fish again for a bit later. I'm a total gaper when it comes to trout fishing but it was awesome just being out on the river first thing. Dropped into the lower east wall just to the right of this picture. Not too hard core compared to the other hike to stuff but the snow was great. 4 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 Try to get over to the new Beavers lift. I heard there’s good tree skiing over there. Quote

PSUFrankenstein Posted April 5, 2019 Author Report Posted April 5, 2019 Late dinner at a German place in Frisco. place is a total sausage fest 2 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted April 5, 2019 Report Posted April 5, 2019 Looks like you’re having a good time and nice weather...semi spring before it goes back to winter next week in the Colorado Rockies because they heard I’m gonna be there in ten days. 1 Quote
PSUFrankenstein Posted April 5, 2019 Author Report Posted April 5, 2019 Heading to Copper in a bit. Today should be good, sunny out and no clouds for now. Yesterday was flat light most of the day. I was flying down one of the wide open runs in montezuma bowl and fell pretty hard hitting a bump I didn't see. Quote
PSUFrankenstein Posted April 5, 2019 Author Report Posted April 5, 2019 Got to copper around 10. This place is huge, I keep getting lost. Did some groomers, a few glades, and a long bump run that I ended up on by accident. Also rode the bubble lift which isn't really needed for today. Supposed to do some runs on the cat in a bit 6 Quote
PSUFrankenstein Posted April 5, 2019 Author Report Posted April 5, 2019 Caught a run on the cat in Copper bowl which was f'ing incredible. Snow softened up and was an awesome day. 4 Quote
