RATS! Wish I knew you were there, we were there too!

 

[BenedictGomez]

I finished the season with a measly 9 days. The worst I've done numerically since 2007, and that's only because back then I was a slave of a global bank. The good news is, it's almost statistically impossible for next year's season to be worse.

Blue Mountain (20" powder day, and mgmt. was smart enough to not groom)
Smuggler's Notch
Smuggler's Notch
Alta (with a fantastic guide session via thetrailboss)
Solitude
Park City / Canyons
Snowbird
Powder Mountain
Deer Valley

 

[drjeff]

About to click into my bindings for my 50th and final day of the season (I think....)

 

[thetrailboss]

I had the same reaction when I saw your p.m. mentioning deer Valley and Snowbird.

Still at 46; completely unmotivated to ski this weekend. Feeling more likely to hike or fish than ski, at least until this cold blast of air which is more like an insult than a help.

Might try to motivate to K this week but beginning to realize I'm ready for this "winter" to just go away now.

 

[AdironRider]

Jackson closes April 3rd????

Any efforts made to change this relationship with the USFS?

When does Targee close?

Yup, being even more of a destination resort than Aspen, once spring break is over its crickets out here.

The forest service would gladly take the extended lease revenue (the mountain claims some animal closure, but its BS). They stayed open a week later a few years ago and it was just a gift to pass holders. No-one spends two days traveling for spring skiing in Jackson.

Targhee gets the local crowd from Idaho Falls and Pocatello, so they stay open 1 to 2 weeks longer.

But at the end of the day, both of them will close with basically 100% coverage. You can ski out the gates once they open up the tram on Memorial Day, always fun.

Bout to head out for closing day, number 78. Going to get a day or two over at Targhee and wrap up the lift served season around 80.

Anywhere push later that that in Tahoe? Heavenly? Squaw?

Well heavenly extended another week which for me is great as my work will be finishing up and ill be able to ski locally (very) for my last week here. Ill also show up to their employee ride day the day after closing before skipping town. Squaw rose and mammoth will go deep into may or beyond.

Im about ready to get to moab, ride bikes and maybe some backcountry lasals trips.

Cool that your daughter is starting to get the days in!! Just wait a few years, BOTH my kids (age 12 and 10) beat my 50 day tally this year (and I have to now just enjoy watching them ski maybe 15-20 turns before they disappear out of sight of me when we actually ski together!!) - so COOL to make turns with your offspring!!

6. January 30, 2016: Alta (Monster Powder Day)

What exactly qualifies as a monster pow day?

 

[boston_e]

For us right now:

My younger son: 28 days
Older son and myself: 27 days
Wife: 25 days

I think that is most likely a wrap for us. We have commitments in the flatlands the next two weekends. I suppose depending on how much is left that following weekend we may try to grab one more day. All depends on what the weather gives us the next couple of weeks I guess.

It's like they say about porn--you know it when you see it.







More than like 12".
