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.

Widowmaker opened today for the first time of the season. It was groomed perfectly where the snowmaking had been taking place with a nice dusting of this mornings snowfall on top. If you've seen the area under the chair with no snow you know that there are a bunch of rollers and lips to launch off of with gaps to clear .Cant really tell in the video though .Anyways . It was a blast with all the snow they've got in the last 10 days, especially at speed and with soft landings.View in 720







Got some really fun laps in and after about an hour it was time to go somewhere less crowded.







Met up with wakeboarder and we headed out for a hike on a little bootpack that I already set.







No crowds here.

Deep powder day today. Have to get the pics off the camera. Don't have a PC up here. Best day in the last 2 years. Facebook has a pic up (thanks Ed!!!!!) but untracked turns were plentiful before the pic.
