Nice pow
Is that homo Albano skiing with you, or is that pussy-whipped bastard still chained to the kitchen sink?

Justin- sledding is good. Super tiring tho. The secret zone is not below seventh. Don't go down there, it's not a fun place to get out of.
It's so beautiful up here today!!

Haha Mike, it kinda sounds like you've done it before. I was meaning the trees that come out at sunset boulevard. My only other guess would be something that goes off of Ridge Runner. So many good trees on that mountain. Stoked you are out there again in under a year.

I was just down there the other day Justin.
We need more snow.
And your are way off but pretty damn close on your guess of where Mikes stash is. The only way you will ever know for sure though is to come shred with us some time.

I know Bruce. Taking it easy. Didn't go too far yesterday and spent more time sitting than riding. I also bailed early so as to be certain to have enough energy to make it to the truck safe.

No Pwl activity yesterday bruce. No activity at all actually. The Caa forecaster blog predicted that. He said it might take a couple days for the big slabs to form up.
Chocolate bowl looked like it went natural along most of avalanche alley a couple days ago.
We played it super safe yesterday, staying on the super low angle ridge and playing in the meadows. Plenty of other people being stupid though. They busted the gauntlet (the chute on the left of my brandywine bowl pic), and boatloads of turbo couch owners could be seen drinking beer directly below avalanche slopes. All the coq boys are up this weekend too, since the coq is closed, and they aren't known for their snow safety skills.
Thank god it's low vis today. Hopefully that will keep some people outta trouble..

Yeah should be fun, I've never been but got a good crew to show me the ropes: Joel, Cam & Henkel! I'm not sure what I'm more concerned about tho: PWL or LSD in my beer? Probably won't take my peeps off the entire time.

We went skiing a couple weeks ago here in the East. I haven't skied here in over 10 years. So I hit a tree around 30 mph and took a lil damage
Putting these here to remind me why I will go West or Europe next year.

Nice shots Mike.
South side deli is not recommended this year, might be better now but a week and a half ago it was rowdy @ the bottom for sure.
Top 500' was amazing tho.
