Nice I've heard good things about the jj's.
Susan that is rad!
Anyone out there rocking a split? Any opinions for a mostly powder oriented board?

SNOW POTENTIAL 10 to 17 inches of snowfall (up to 2 feet above 8,500 feet
Tuesday forecast for Kirkwood, fingers crossed. Plan is to leave from there and head to Bozeman for a few weeks. Trying to get as much fun "shredding" as possible before spring slaps us with all it's glory!

^^^^^ohhhh nice
We are on another winter road trip with ultimate destination Bozeman. Our first stop was our usual ski spot, Kirkwood. I had two 12,000 foot days and my legs are feeling it!
I am so so so wanting to jump off this cornice on Fawn Ridge, but the birthdate on my driver's license says "No, don't be silly". Oh to just turn back that darn clock for just a day.
Today the clouds were rolling in and snow was starting pretty briskly but it's not expected to be a big dump.
Michael at the top of the run we always warm up on. Staying warm was more challenging today compared to yesterday's full on sun.
Off to Utah tomorrow...not sure where we'll ski. We'll check for the best conditions.
Still lovin' winter.

Decided to post some stoke to Big Mike's thread, though it could fit in "Roger's Pass":

Splitboard and hard boots ^ (Dynafit TLT Mtn's) are awesome tools! I like what he says, "Because 90% of the day is going up and suffering, you hafta enjoy that too. The last 10% is the best part, but you have to enjoy that other 90%, because you won't be coming back, if you don't like that walking."
Heal up soon, Big Mike!

You guys rule!! Thanks for the stoke. I really needed it after last night.
These might be hard, but every snoriders best friend is ski patrol!!!
Take pictures honey!!!! Really?????? YES!!!!
Worried Sandra accidental self portrait.
Thumbs up for the Heli!!!
I can't say enough about the work that Blackcomb Ski Patrol does. They are true heroes. Quick and amazingly efficient! Top notch really!
I will always be in their debt. Were they not around I might not be tapping these words. Although, by the sound of Ekat's story, maybe I might, but I would be a lot worse off.
SCARY EKAT!!!!!!
I would describe my experience as smooth. Thanks to my heroes in Red!!
