Back In Action!
The fresh snow we received, on top of the sun crust from last week, was skiing SUPER fast and with the terrain being completely untouched, we had a heck of a day!! From wide open faces on the south/east ridges to tight pines with scattered cliffs on the north, we skied it all!
Out Like A Lamb
The month of March has developed just as they said it would! We started off with back-to-back snow storms and cold temps and are just starting to mellow out with sunny skies and some warmer temps.
Spring has Sprung!
Although we love snowy stormy weather, we are thrilled for the warm spring conditions and we're still finding the soft dry powder out there!
Red Wing Blackbirds, Moose and Powdercats
Spring is nearly upon us. Tomorrow is officially the first day of one of our favorite seasons in NW CO. Where else can you go skiing, fishing, kayaking and biking in same day?We had our last 3 cat day today and all of us went up top to Soda Mountain. We do this when our snow gets locked down in our lower elevations and have to seek the goods up high where the powders live.
Looking Ahead
As we enter our last week of operation on Buffalo Pass and get closer to the end of the 2018/2019 season altogether, we start to look ahead and plan our off season adventures.
Putting The Sun In Sunday
Man, it sure does feel nice having the sun in our faces once again after a long winter of consistent storm days! Don't get me wrong, we love the fresh but at some point our bodies start to crave the feeling of the sun on skin, especially when the air is still as cold as it is.
Sunny Spring Time
Though we hoped and prayed that winter would just stick around until June, we'll happily take mid-March as our first real sighting of spring weather.
Colorado Born & Bred
Today marks our annual Never Summer Snowcat day where they award the winners of the NS Ticket to Shred contest.......We are beyond stoked to share the love of riding powder with such a homegrown and innovative company and a few of their loyal fans. Maybe it's not a coincidence that we've both been "Keeping it fresh since 1983."
Powder For Everyone
Snowmageddon 2018/2019 continued to share the love of shralping powder with everyone here in the great town of Steamboat Springs, Colorado. With our longest snow drought being just over a week, we've got a lot to be grateful for.
Zing Bang, Another Storm is Crushing Us
We hope we never wake up from this snowy dreamlike state we are in. 6" on the stake when we arrived at 9:00 am to the cabin this morning and another 3" fell during the day. Say what? It's as if our own fairy snow mother has waved her wand over Northwestern Colorado and her crystalized magic is falling from the heavens.
The Calm Before the Storm, Again!
Another rocking time today. Supergroups, lots of rippers, smiling faces, ladies and of course our daily dude party. We crushed Skeeters, Buffalo Mountain, Pepsi and North Soda. Continue reading....
Happy Turns
Believe it or not, for some skiing isn't all about slashing pow and hucking cliffs. Many folks find their bliss in the art of their turn by finding a state of flow in the rhythm of the white mountain dance.
New Week, New Snow
No better way to kick off a new week than with 5" of super light snow on top of all we received last week!
You Guessed It
IT'S STILL SNOWING!!!!!!!!!
Winter Weather Factory
The Winter Weather Factory did not disappoint today! With 4" of fresh snow overnight, most all aspects were skiing great!
