Anybody skiing Kinsman and Tramline? They still have them listed as open. But I think it's a bit cruel that they don't mention the lengthy walk back to the lifts without the tram running.

Last week is was reading about how Cannon would be overrun Sat for Body Fest. Did anyone actually skip Cannon today because of that? Cause I was there today and it was off the wall good and not a lift line to be seen. Full on winter from Boise Rock up to Peabody and up the mountain. Vista, Tramway, U Cannon all great with patch's of fresh. Zoomer lift trails from Avalanche to Zoomer big soft bumps but the best we found was a hardly skied Banchee Slope with 2-3 fresh on top. My son and I cut that up good with 3 consecutive runs from 11:30 to 12:00. Will issue a TR with pictures in the future (got to get my Utah trip up too).

Yes, I skipped Cannon for this reason. I went to Jay instead. It was 3-6" freshies up top and dust on glacier down low. The glades were the place to be. Team was on wind hold by 12:30. The secondary slush from yesterday started edgeable, but was rock solid by noon.

Puckit's campaign seems to have worked with the Cannon crowds. :grin:

Ridiculous unexpected powder day today. Snowed all day yesterday which they groomed into the base over night. Then picked up 6"+ from 5-8am this morning. Blower blanket over perfectly groomed. Amazing!

Awesome! Yeaterday was pretty awesome save for the wind and I'm sure today was even better.
Starting to learn that the "notch effect" is a very real thing, not just a marketing ploy....for good and bad!

And was it ever in effect yesterday! What a crazy weather day it was. Great skiing with you guys.
I should have stayed. I was just up there and it looked really good. I had dropped my helmet last time I was there and swung by to grab it at lost and found. Looks like 2-3" here at base of South Peak. Oh well. Terrain I haven't skied before soon sure it will be fun anyway.

I had to leave Cannon around 10:30 to do some work. Back in Lincoln now. South Peak is looking nice!

Awesome pic! Makes me wish I got in the back-country more with my Goldie. We do some on snowshoes, but usually less than 1hr loops.

I'd say 25-30... Stayed cold and the snow was feather light fluff

Yup, good day today. Mid-winter conditions.
However, I can't figure out why Middle Hardscrabble was closed (at around 1:30 or so). Everything else was skiing sweet.
