So I just reupped our passes for next season.... which means I have "immediate spring access". Thinking of going up next week.

I have to give a shout out to Goldsmith's Board Shop. Those of you who have been around awhile know that I've had some issues in the past with customer service - not the actual work they do. I just got some new skis and wanted to mount bindings but I'm leaving for Utah on Sunday. I called to see if they could do it in one day. They said they could if I was willing to spend $10 extra. So I dropped them off and an asked if the tech could check the tune just to be sure. AN HOUR LATER they called me! The bindings were mounted, the tune was checked and classified as good, and he waxed the skis! Wow! Yes, I tipped very well! So happy!

When necessary, I choose that store too

Fun day at Snow Valley with my boys. It was warm but the sun turned the snow off trail from crusty to creamy. Great conditions for goofing around.

Sorry I have been neglecting this thread, I've been skiing a lot. I'm just gonna start dumping photos. I hit Snow Valley Thursday for the first time in about 30 years and it was awesome! Lots of fun to be had there, especially with Slide Peak open. All resorts are stacked with snow, lack customers tho, Bear and SV close tomorrow.

Sunday is closing for Snow Summit, see you on Saturday for some final turns until next season (unless I can swing a Mammoth trip next month).

You might be able to twist my arm and talk me into another Mammoth trip early/mid May. You up for car pooling and split a hotel?

By the way, I'm going up Sunday

It's got to be pretty good still, I would check their social posts. The past two days have been very warm, 69° @ BB airport today, but skiing is still good. I was out 'til after 3 today at SS.

At Footloose, we like Kevin. By 1:00 on Sunday, we’ll probably be done unless conditions are better than I expect. We’ll be out at opening Monday - starting at Cznyon. Text me if you want to meet up!

My brother has expressed interest in a Mammoth trip along with a friend (experienced skier who was in Europe for the season), I'll check his pulse on this and get back with you (the wife will have to give up the Sorento for the trip... unless you have a vehicle you'd rather take...).

Snow Summit was in fine form today. Tomorrow will be my last of the season @ SS, will be in Mammoth for the next week. Chair #1 reopening tomorrow for the closing weekend.

Sounds good. I'll keep you posted in a week or so to see if my Boss(my better half) gives me the green light

I'm thinking this is my last trip for this year. I'm enjoying the blue bird days but I'm losing interest in doing the same runs over and over up here. Wish it was a tad cooler up here. It's getting mushy too soon :-(

I can't imagine what it'll be like in another 2-3 weeks. I may hang up the skis for the season and focus on cycling ;-)
