I have some old 193 Kendo's I use for groomer days. F those things are fast but pretty sketchy for free ride skiing.

Yeah, I think you have to think outside of the box these days to find your own personal skiing nirvana. I'm not attracted to the big, popular destinations any longer. If I were thinking Colorado I'd be looking at the West slope spots.

It costs roughly between $380.00 to $580.00 per acre just for a thinning project which is where a lot of the current demand is for USFS employees workload. Shoot, they blow millions every year just fighting lawsuits filed by environmentalist groups. A company like Vail is providing millions of...

The terrain looks plenty good for most people. The powder tree skiing looks incredible.

Thanks. The modern ski experience discussed in that article isn’t something I’m interested in.

Would you do me a favor and copy and paste that article and send it to me in a PM? I can't see my first four numbers on my debit card anymore so I can't get the free month subscription. Thanks
