Note Lift 5/Ski Run 6…

 

Did you fall off the lift on that one?

I think my velocity would be higher if that were the case.

I like the Slopes app. It’s subscription based but seems to be fairly accurate regarding speed. They also added a track friend on the mountain feature this year.

Slopes definitely has/had a free tier. I’ve been using it for a few years now and never paid.

Looks like you stopped halfway down Lazy to start a fire?

Skiing with my brother in law (who was a better skier than I was until his motorcycle accident 15 years ago or so-doesn’t have much flexibility to absorb the ruts).

Was on the snow 430-730 tonight with a beer and peanut butter cracker break in the middle. 32° and clear skies for a nice sunset. Saw [mention]Johnny Law [/mention]’s car but never caught up with him.

Buses were back in the lot and a lot of special people out. Waited for JL at the top for a couple minutes and had 3 people ski over my tails. Slight line from 5-6 but VIP was wide open so not much waiting.

First half of Lazy had the best snow and the rest of it was pretty much scraped off. Midway to Lower wasn’t bad but had some dark spots with lights out. Shuttle was pretty technical with the amount of snowboarders walking and people struggling to get across.

Excited for more terrain to open and hopefully spread some people out. I’m interested to see how the new lights on Coming Soon look while skiing. They look super bright.

Is that iOS? I use ski tracks as well (Android) but I don’t see the run count field on that screen

I noticed today I had run count field on screen, which I normally have. Not sure what happened yesterday 

[Johnny Law]

Rode from 6 to 830, was surprised how good the snow was on lazy and lower main.  Looked for mute but never saw him somehow with only 3 ways down but the beer fairy left me a tasty treat.  

The lights on coming soon look super nice and it will be beyond nice to have some more trails.  

They were pushing our p dis and it looked like a straight up boulder field so a couple of inches could really help.

Track a friend? Wouldn’t most of them be in the parking lot if it’s after 11am?

Are you skiing Saturday?  Gonna be sunny

@momskeeztoo what run are you on that is 50 degrees?  I have used that app before but never found it glitchy.

Wicked steeps at Blue!  
How else could I go 72 MPH? 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

That’s dumb that they count up vertical.

Woah 60 degree slope and 72 mph.  Must've been on Burma

I can see counting it for those that uphill travel or xc skiing. I like the way it shows on mine, downhill is the big number, then adds the uphill and totals it. I wonder if choosing the default activity makes a difference. I set mine to "skiing" but xc and other things are options so maybe that affects the display.

Mine is set to skiing.

I really only got the app to count runs and number of miles skied. 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

I don’t do a ski app cause I keep track of runs skied in my head and I keep my phone in my car when I ski. I’m on my iPhone several hours per day. Skiing is my break from it.

@momskeeztoo you should use the skiing stats feature here since you’re a stats junkie.  I used to keep track of runs skied and vertical but just days now.

Yours looks just like mine too, big number is vertical descent with uphill and total smaller under it. Indiggio has total vertical as the bigger number then breaks down the ascent and descent under it. Wonder what his is set to.
