Any updates from Vail today?
Vail reported 6", but a friend up there said most of that probably fell yesterday during the day (after they reported yesterday's new snow). I'll be up there tomorrow, probably BSB and in the trees looking for fresh. Last edited by turbospartan; 02-01-2013 at 03:17 PM. |

It was nice for my first few runs then all of Denver showed up. I was on
Y up for an hour. Yesterday was THE day. Long time locals rank it amongst the best ever. The sun and wind are out this afternoon so it will smooth and crust over on the backside..... Bluesy trees should be great. Yesterday there was not a single line on the backside that could not be straight lined raging down the mountain while screaming at the top of your lungs from the sheer excitement and overwhelming joy..... This morning we got a quick downpour of fresh snow, about 1.5-2".... That's it for today. If their report of 9" was true yesterday then my dick is about 1/4" long.... Tomorrow there will be tons of fresh in the frontside and bluesy trees actually, wind is knocking the 8" off the tree limbs and no one has really hit up the trees regardless. |

Yesterday was unexpectedly fantastic. I expected decent, but badly wind effected snow, brutal cold, and stupid wind. Instead, we found great snow, decent temperatures, and very little wind.
GREAT day!

Thanks for the info. Bluesy = BSB trees? Or trees off of blue runs? Stick to Northwoods? |

I went to Vail today. The lines were pretty bad in the back. Nobody was riding the stuff where the rope tow is. It was waist deep over there for my shortness. It was sooo nice to finally ride in snow over my knees. The last time I rode snow that deep was last season.
