Ski Southeast Messageboard

I know...late. I did my share in season, so I held off on this until the summer to help keep traffic going thru the dry season. My annual Vail trip with my brother with a surprise meetup with a board member.



Arrive March 6th. The CME from DIA..clear day but snow is in forecast.





View from room on morning of 7th, overnight snow didn't develop but it started early morning.





And kept on comin (this is somewhere around Mid-Vail)





Short break around mid-day. Damn those long Vail lift-lines! (One gondola)





And started again late afternoon.





March 7th

Morning view from Lionshead. Blue-bird after fresh 8 inches!



















Headed to backbowls





From Pete's Express









Finish the day watching the Burton US Open. I circled the boarders getting air.









March 9th new snow, blue-bird and a little warmer. Best day of trip. (Trees somewhere near Lodgepole)

Apres ski with free champagne at Chops in Lionshead Village.





March 10th No new snow and warmer again, which turn the untracked pow to heavy mash which really stunk because Davidski showed up!!! I planned to head to some nice trees areas I hit the day prior but that didn't work out. So I gave him a tour sticking to mostly groomers, covering 80% of Vail. Check out his CO TR post.

Last run (Lindsy's...as in Vonn)





Vert summary

Nice TR . The place looked empty .

must. get. rich. ski. vail.

Hey summer posts are great, they keep the dream alive.



I had a great time, we did clock some runs. I admit I felt a little Jed Clampit-ish (yea it's a word, look it up) Valet parking scares me.... why are they so nice?



A lot of those endless sweeping runs are in my mind. Did your Bro have that phone removed from his ear... cause that looked painful.



Thanks man, see you this winter

^^Phone was removed and promptly planted in his arse.



Lookin forward to more turns this season!
