ski stoke

Hoping to see some familiar faces from the old site over here with this topic. How's everyone doing? So what's new this year? What's the news? What's changed? Where is everyone skiing?

Snowmaking was going on the North Ridge extending down to within 100 ft of the base of the North Ridge Triple as of 2:30 this afternoon. We are locked and loaded ready for the starting gun. .

Doesn't appear to be a thread like this yet.... So it got down to 34 degrees this week in DC, it's almost November, my skis are back from waxing and tuning, and I'm watching the World Cup race from Solden. Seems like winter is almost here! :yahoo: They're already skiing in Colorado, Oregon...

soSo tis the season.... the ski show. Some are great and some are just not. Did you go, where and what was your impression. Me - Ottawa ski show. $8 to park the car, no other fees. So fill up the car! Venue...great place except there was also the Women's Show and a Wedding Show on in the...

It has begun..... From our front door this morning......

Today at Loveland Pass makes ONE. Not ideal conditions, as my tips were getting caught under the snow and I had to go in the backseat a little bit. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it :daffy: Coverage was surprisingly good all the way to US-6

Hey Pugski, Hope everyone is getting psyched, the season is near....looks like it is here in some places. Anyways, I've been podcasting away and have a lot of content for you to check out if you like hearing about skiers and thier stories. Here are the most recent, I think you will enjoy...

Snow from last night with several inches more on the way.

Loveland has started making snow. Meanwhile, 90 degress this last weekend in the upper Midwest

Mt. Bachelor, Sept 20 2017

It's not much, but it's a start.

With parts of Montana getting some snow recently, seems like a good time to start up a thread for Big Sky. For those who missed it, Big Sky extended its season a week, now closing on April 22, 2018. http://www.explorebigsky.com/22556-2/22556

It's never too early to start a ski thread! Since I am starting to think skiing ... I thought I'd get this going! Here's hoping we get tons of snow this year. Let the snow dancing begin!

Less than two months to opening day, Nov 9...... I'm packed & ready :daffy:

My local hill keeps improving and with the last winter, I know the money was tighter. Glad to see midwest ski hills still making improvements. Especially when at least 3 will not be opening this season.

This data source is looking good for our region and the Midwest! What's Joe Bastardi got so far?

Well, it's snowing. Yea, it's the monsoon, but I had a fire lit yesterday during the day. Plus it snowed right after we skied on Sunday. #imaginarypolesareultralight Since we could have been skiing while it snowed, it's officially next season. Game = on.

Here's my stoked short. Post yours now too! Skiing ends at Bachelor for the public May 28th. I'll ski the next two Friday's thru Sunday's. Catch me if you can!

Highlights from this season. [to come]

The first snow has fallen, and the weather watch has begun.
