Guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I haven't hit too many rocks this season, and nothing major thankfully, but there are still plenty of brown patches out there. We are in desperate need of snow. They haven't been grooming much at all as of late, and while the economy is definitely a factor, the lack of snow is a contributing factor as well, IMO.

Ray Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Best day of my season yesterday at Highlands! Cool stuff. Great (the best here I would say) snow on the upper mountain; Gunbarrel groomed But yes, the grooming in general is getting worse now, nothing really to groom anymore. NEED SNOW!

domic78 Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hi guys, I'm from Montreal Canada and I'm going to snowmass village Thursday 28th to feb 04 and I don't know the place at all. Where are the good places to carve right now? I know that me and my girlfriend will stay at Laurelwood condo. Supposed to be ski in/out. You can save me time before I can find the right track in the right mountain hehe. Thanks. All black snowboard with deeluxe track 325 boots.. You can say hi.

Ray Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I am not the biggest fan of Snowmass, but that's also because I have similar/better closer to me. Buttermilk (Tiehack side: Racers edge...) Highlands (Gunbarrel) :biggthump Ajax (Ruthies, Aztek, Back of Bell !!!) :biggthump I post my schedule here most times. Looking forward meeting you!!!

Guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 For Snowmass: Micks Gully, Upper Slot, Sheer Bliss are the three best groomers. But the Big Burn area is pretty goood for carving all around, if lacking in steepness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Nice! I will be at the Starbucks around 8:30 and take the first gondola up. See you! Sorry I didn't make it in to town. As one can't park in town I waited for two busses to have room, and none of them did. Post X Games we must ride. Now that I have your number it will be easy to meet up.
