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.

Another day trip to the Shoe. When I arrived at 915 there seemed to be a higher than normal # of cars in the parking lot and people at the top of Soaring Eagle lift. Did one lap there then head to WT. No new snow. Cupp and upper Shays were great all morning, especially the left sides. Lower Shays had no bumps and was blue ice by 11am.

Left the WT around noon as crowds picked up and a light snow started. Did the usual stuff off Ballhooter (no heavy crowds, singles line was 3-5 deep). Found some bumps on Knotbumper...a bit big and icy for my skill level, but I managed through them a few times.

Ended back at Soaring Eagle to finish the day when the snow became heavy for about an hour. To my surprise best runs of the day by far were under the SE lift...still lots of soft snow and good coverage. Camp99 was good too.

I forgot to mention, one more good storm will have the trees and other unmarked runs ready. There were some areas I was tempted,but I just had my bases tuned so I didn't want the risk.
