Serre Chevalier, France was new to me this season. I would definitely go back. The terrain, snow, food, hotel, location, people - all awesome! https://gopro.com/v/96r19D8XomMoz

I really like mine. Recommended.

Oh yeah, blue jacket - that's too cool that you were in the shot! I knew that trail would be perfect for her. As 4aprice mentioned, its a nice trail to introduce someone to the fun of skiing bumps.

Here's a quick video from Lower Cleo on Saturday. Those who were there that day may have spotted us...

There's also another, longer pitch of bumps that continues down the trail that's not visible in that photo. It will be big fun tomorrow!

They did on Monday, Feb 13. They had them on Main Street (Barney's Bumps - on skier's right again this year) and also a short section on Nightmare. Unfortunately, no bumps on Challenge so far this year. For some reason, their website has yet to reflect the bump status. The lines were fun and...

Here's a good winter-is-coming milestone. Today is the first day of the season that the NWS publishes these snow forecast charts. http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/wwd/winter_wx.shtml

Ahhh, the cream of Manchester...

I skied Whiteface for the first time on Feb 27 & 28. They had just received a ton of snow from the multi-day storm. The slides were open on the Saturday but the top of the mountain was in the clouds so I didn't try them. The next day was clear in the morning and I spent a few lift rides...

This is the risk you take when you decide to compete in a judged sport.

Looks fantastic! How were the crowds? Anyone have a guess about how crowded Blue will be on Friday?
