Awesome! I'll be there that weekend also for a cat trip on Monday the 29th. Skiing the resort on Sat/Sun.

My fingers are in my ears and I'm singing *lalalala* regarding cat skiing. But I expect I'll ski Saturday at the resort. My mom will be in town and after her health scare and saga since Christmas I need some serious mama time.

 

[Ron]

Ok, I'm in for the 27/28th. I don't have to leave till the next weekend.

 

[Ron]

Skied with @JeffB and family yesterday. Great to ski with pugs! Great guy and a solid skier. Looking forward to his next trip out here.

 

[Ron]

Its dumping here! nice to see especially given the dire forecast. So no snow predicted last week until the 24th has turned into 12-24 predicted this week.

 

[JeffB]

20 minutes into climb out from HDN, that last post hurts ...

Many thanks to @Ron for good turns and great company yesterday. Perfect way to cap off the trip -

Now getting to work planning the next one.

Next weekend is now questionable. Mom isn't out of the woods on the infection and has to have another surgery on Monday. She's so disappointed as they were supposed to be pulling in today.

The mountain is struggling to find its rhythm, we got about 8" this week and it looks like a few more are coming through Monday but the temps have been hanging in the no-where zone, it's not conducive to thawing enough to give us the sweet soft snow we had earlier this week. Its been pretty flat and today is another day to practice relaxed skiing.

So Sorry to hear! Good thoughts and prayers sent for mom; she's more important.

 

[Ron]

Headed up the AM for what looks to be a full on Blue-B day! The mountain is skiing very well. Some new is predicted for tomorrow/night. Tuesday may be a soft day.

 

[TexasStout]

See last snow day forecast for awhile is Monday, followed by a long dry spell. We fly in to Hayden on Wednesday, first ski day will be Thursday. Even though we'll be there a full week, no champagne powder for us. Guess I'll only need carving skis for this trip.



Finndog, will you have any availability for making some turns Feb 26-Mar 1?

Even though we haven't had much snow lately, turns were phenomenal today.

No, it's part of a fun little BC tour you can string together off the backside of the mtn. I was on my way back inbounds when this little slope lured me back for more.

 

[coskigirl]

So Sorry to hear! Good thoughts and prayers sent for mom; she's more important.

Sorry....

Thank you both. It's been really rough on all of us and I really just want to give her a big hug. It sucks not being able to.

 

[Ron]

Hey @tam sorry I missed that tour!

@TexasStout I will be here Although maybe only skiing a day or so. Just let me know when you roll in.
