RidgeRacer Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 Short but fun travel day session for me. Being the jackass that I am I ended up, first run, on a double black "extreme" run called forest. Probably not the best choice for run number one but skied it semi ok...Pics below. Did a few more off the silver queen chair...more tame stuff, until close. I can't wait until tomorrow to ski the full day. This place is awesome. 9 Quote

RidgeRacer Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 Crested Butte website is saying 1-3 inches overnight. Looks like sleet fell in town. Should be a bit more clear out today than it was yesterday. Should be fun! 2 Quote

RidgeRacer Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 Amazing afternoon. Barb hit up some bump runs off of the Teocali lift while Dan and I rode the T bar and took two runs on the North face (double slab and north face). Awesome experience back there. Very steep open rock face areas with lots of nice pow stashes still. Some very tight trees too depending on the route you take. 3 Quote
JFskiDan Posted March 12, 2020 Author Report Posted March 12, 2020 North Face. Goal of the day for me was to not eat shit on the t-bar. Goal accomplished. Some real nice stuff off north face. Steeps, trees, rocks, and chutes. stopped to see Rambo. Not sure pic does it justice. at least i think that pic is rambo. I had to hold my arm up and over the edge to get the pic. 6 1 Quote

JFskiDan Posted March 12, 2020 Author Report Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) Day 2 for me in the books. Damn, what a nice day. Oddly enough, it sounded like today was going to be a wash based on what sounded like rain overnight. Woke up at the house to 2” of pretty dense snow at the house. Snow on the mountain was a lot less dense and made for some terrific runs in paradise bowl first thing, and skied around a bit there and kept getting some nice untracked runs. off to East River lift to play in some trees i found yesterday, which were pretty much untracked. this is when we split off from Barb, before meeting back up for lunch. Went up the North Face lift which is a t-bar. Here you will find some really interesting stuff, you can take many routes, trees, chutes, and some open faces. Snow in the North Face was nice and soft. Make no mistake though, you will find rocks available for a base grind almost anywhere. tomorrows activities will include some stuff off the high lift, i think, depending on what todays sun does to the snow in that area. Looks like the reset button gets pressed sometime tomorrow when the snow rolls in, and should continue into saturday i think. after lunch we ran some groomers over to the umbrella bar, and relaxed in the sun. A quick easy groomer back to the base and right on the bus back to town. no lunch pic Doug, but we are taking Barb out for dinner tonight, so maybe a few snaps latter on tonight.

Barb Posted March 12, 2020 Report Posted March 12, 2020 Was a great day today! I remembered that epic keeps your stats so I looked it up and I got 17 runs in, which is much more then I usually do. The legs don’t feel too beat up but my stupid broken foot is talking to me. After some ice it feels better hopefully tomorrow will be ok. Lunch pic for Doug. Obligatory Paradise Bowl shot.
