the best reaction i ever saw happened out in PA, on a moderate blue course that wasn't groomed (bumpy). a guy skis right into them fast and then he yells, "OH WHO PUT THESE HERE?" and he flies about 20 feet forward, with a garage sale right behind him. |

Never been to the Austrian Alps but I doubt it's like this. Get ready for some ice! Thats how we do in the North East!
I went to killington this weekend. They still only had 16 trails open and all the landings in the park were straight ice. Super sketchy! Still the best conditions of the year thus far. They got 4 or 5 inches on sat. |

I'm doing a SLC trip in February if anyone is interested. Below is the info - my friend is running a ski-school course in Brighton SLC. I'm looking to join in on the lodging, flight and car rental would be handled on your own, but the room rate and lift is probably one of the best prices you'll find out there for ski-in/out.
Love me some SALT LAKE POW what's good riders?
