How'd you do with the pow? Sourdough lift is a great area to try it out and do some learning.

I loved Tin Pants and Sourdough as well as Boomer.
I fell twice pretty early in the snow and then Betsy kinda gave me a few pointers and it was a lot better. I did not like it after it was all chopped up. And it got VERY chopped up today. I don’t want to disparage anyone, but those snowboarders really create a lot of piles. For me in the crud it was tough to maintain my weight forward.
That's generally true for everyone not at an expert level. Me included.
Glad you still enjoyed it.
Not a fan of the thread acronym, so I've never posted. But today was EXCELLENT! Got 6" at Snowmass to start the day and then it snowed a couple more during the day to fill in and add. It appears the customers today didn't like to ski trees or wide open where visibility was flat. Started my last run at 3:45 and still had fresh shin-deep pow on the Big Burn.
Because the acronym came out of the Colorado Crew who started calling it Tuesdays in the Snow long before Pugski was a thought on anyone's mind.Why is this labeled COLORADO?
Looks like you finally got some snow!!

Even @Chris Geib had his powder skis on yesterday.
Last run of the day, and we were blessed with directed in Upper Enchanted Forest. That line below me, didn't suck Photo courtesy of @Drahtguy Kevin
Will someone please inform the unenlightened what "directed" skiing is?

Patrol will open an area or part of a run, for a limited time so idiots like us can help compress/consolidate the terrain before it is open to the general public. Usually a patroller will be standiing at the top and lecture skiers on the dangers of going into the area and let in groups at a time. There is usually another patroller or two at various points in the area to keep people from going into areas that they want to keep close.Will someone please inform the unenlightened what "directed" skiing is?

I saw the other picture and thought oh Geib is there. Then I saw the wide skis and started to second guess myself as to whether that was actually Geib.
^^ I can think of a lot of comments to respond; however, they're not appropriate for the boards.
Big, soft, and luscious.

I still enjoy them, even if no one is watching.
