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.

there's not much natural snow in the summit county resort area right now---copper, breck, keystone, vail, a basin---we keep getting the infamous n.c.dustings---the snowmaking is most impressive though---everywhere is open---but terrain is limited----22 foot superpipe at copper is something to behold---check it out at coppercolorado.com on the webcam---all the pro snowboarders are there gearing up for the gran prix---one of the premier events of the season---lindsea lumpkin is there and was invited to compete in the junior jam on dec. 12th---it airs on nbc the 13th at 2:30pm---she is a product of beech mountain's kids learning center---and---has become a 2 time national champion----medalled in 15 of 24 starts at usasa national championships and has won the aspen and rocky mountain series---she's a whopping 12 years old---check us out if you plan to come [email protected]

I'm getting worried that my days in Colorado over xmas are going to consist of an insanely crowded array of 12-15 green and blue runs and that is all.

Don't fear. There's some potentially big storms lining up this weekend and next week, and once the snow starts early in the season, sometimes it doesn't stop for a while.



Xmas should be fine- that's three weeks away.
