  5. was gonna reply then realized this thead is from last year.
  6. ^^was that you riding at Vernon early Sunday morning? I was there but on a FS board and soft boots, was kicking myself for not bringing my Alpine board, conditions were that good. With this snow, will definitely ride Creek sometime this week.
  7. Tues. Feb.12, planning on being at Vernon peak in the AM. hopefully there's still snow left after all this rain.
  8. I'll be up there first thing Sunday morning. Hoping for groomed corduroy. ....
  9. up for a fellow Creek rider. I'm up there every weekend, although not on hard boots all the time.
  10. rode there last Sunday midday. pretty good snow conditions, although wished they weren't blowing snow on open trails. Great Northern and Zero G were good, not a lot of people. Did a few runs down Horizon, not the best spot with the crowd, although must admit it was fun using slow movers as moving slalom gates Also if they ever fully groomed Granite, my opinion it's the best carving trail on the mountain. Hope to see some fellow carvers out there.
  11. i started off late morning on the right side of the mountain (as you're looking at it), did a few runs on Rocket, as it was fairly open and led to a nice open area on the bottom, perfect for carving wide turns. then went to the other side early in the afternoon, but got too packed so spent a good hour or two on Pocono Raceway, practicing my carving turns. Also those kids on the Camelback snowboard racing team were amazing, I caught a few glimpses of them carving turns, the youngest must've been only 10 but they ripped!
  12. will be there tomorrow, hope to see some other carvers out there. if anyone wants to ride up, post a meet up time and location.
  13. this thread is 6 yrs old but still relevant. this is why I rarely ever take my Alpine board at MC, just way to crowded on the weekends. esp. on Upper and Lower Horizon on Vernon. I think it also has to do with the way the trails are configured, too many sharp turns forcing everyone to bottleneck at the turns. if I do ride Alpine, its usually very early in the morning ( 8AM) before the crowds start coming.
  14. anyone planning to ride Camelback Sunday Feb. 26? Might be looking to take advantage of the "Alien" lift ticket plan, since I have a season pass from another resort. I actually prefer riding alpine at Camelback due to the long wide winding trails. Also did anyone notice the hardbooter on the front page of skicamelback.com website?
  15. saw you ripping down the slopes on Sunday down towards the gondola. was surprised to notice you were in soft boots. did see a few carvers early last Sunday morning, was kicking myself for not bringing my Alpine board (old Rossignol VAS) then, conditions couldn't be much better then. hope to ride with you guys sometime. mel oh and the comments on the MC FB page are hilarious!
