Nice! Late season Vail/Beaver Creek trip looks like it was a good idea! I'll be there in 1 week!

Vail always seems to "get the goods". Today's other Colorado resort totals: Breck: 5 A-Basin 2, Beaver Creek 8. I'm heading out in 10 days for the last weekend out there. Hopefully the snow will continue.

Friend scored me a cheap pass to Vail today. My only day there this year. It was F$cking awesome!


Mon-Wed off next week and it looks like maybe a real big one finally coming to the divide. Fingers crossed.

Eh, they have done better than most this year but it just depends on the flow. Most of the southern part of the state has done considerably better. Vail also sits lower and the snow sun crust in the spring. The forecast is looking pretty good however, have fun

If I hit Abasin for mothers day again this year, I'll be sure to let you know, would be nice to meet up!

I assume you will be there other days than Mothers Day. I get out midweek Tues/Wed always, sometimes other days too. I would say I could score cheap tix at LL but they will be closed. You have a pass anyways, no?

Sounds like it's turning around out west. I haven't been paying much attention, but I know there were concerns about Mother's Day weekend initially because of there only being a 41" base a few weeks ago...

I have a pass for Abasin and a discount tix book for LL, juuuust in case they're open that extra week(not holding my breath)
I'll let you know my plans, but if I do this it will likely be a Fri-Mon ski trip.
