The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

This last weekend was just what I needed after a long, frustrating winter to this point. We haven't had a true powder day inbounds (at least I haven't), and so when Loveland got over a foot on Friday and Saturday, I knew it was going to be niiiice. I had so much fun skiing last Saturday and Monday that I don't even mind sitting in my office this week... let the 2010 Colorado Winter officially begin!



Let's start this off with some style.... Bill likes to go big when he can.





Yes, this is as much fun as it looks.





Jay leaps onto I-70 to make sure he can beat the traffic home.





Mmmmm..... smooth, creamy, Loveland pow. 0" reported overnight? No problem!





Scenic opportunities abound at Loveland. What? There's a skier in my picture?





Chair 9 opened along with most of the Ridge... meaning fun was to be had by all.





Bill borrowed his brother's hunting jacket for some added steeze:





Jay said, "watch me, and when I turn to the left, take my picture!"





And all the ants below were jealous:





Bluebird and perfect, no?

man, even though we've had powder days all year here, they don't even compare to a powder day anywhere in the west.
