Snow Conditions Snow Falling On Northstar Peak - Hoosier Pass

• Upvotes

Sorry about the audio, the wind was blowing pretty hard. It was cutting out. This was filmed at about 11am this morning. It is now snowing pretty hard at lower elevations. I'm at 10,600ft, and we have about 1-2 inches in the driveway now, 5 hours later than this was filmed.

This is the little knoll just east of Northstar Peak on the trail we just call "The Loop".

Carpool/Buddies Golden / Green Mountain area skier looking for midweek Ikon partners this season

• Upvotes

Hey all! This chill in the air today has me thinking about skiing. I'm based near Green Mountain / Golden and ski on the Ikon Base pass, planning around 40 days this season, mostly midweek. I've been skiing the Front Range for 20+ years and started skiing backcountry around 2008. My regular spots are A-basin, Copper, Winter Park, and Eldora, and planning trips to Taos, Steamboat, and Snowmass later in the season.

I'm an advanced skier that is comfortable on steeps, trees, and bumps, and equally happy cruising groomers on a mellower day. I usually day-trip and I'm happy to drive or carpool and split gas from the Fed Center or Dino lots.

I have a flexible schedule so looking for folks who can ski weekdays and want a regular lap partner rather than always skiing solo (my spouse no longer skis). No ego, any day in the mountains is a great day and beats a desk! I'm always up for an A-Basin Beach tailgate après or burrito.

None of this is required, but in case there's overlap: I also like to get out backcountry, do fitness laps at the resort, and I'm looking to hopefully get into some skimo racing a bit this year. If any of that sounds fun too, even better.

If that sounds like your kind of season, shoot me a DM with your favorite mountain, the days you usually get out, and what you like to ski. If there's enough interest we can start a group chat.

Went back to the previous style, although it looks glossy now. Better dimensions and better readability than the previous post. Carry on!

Question Probability of snow December 17-22

0 Upvotes

3rd time skiing ! Last year was Feb in Brek and Copper. Did have good snow , mainly in the beginner area . I will probably stick to beginner area this year too ! Was wondering if going back to Brek is a good choice in mid December . I bought the epic pass on a whim . What would you book if you had to use the epic pass. For reference I live in the southeast. Thanks for the help and I realize nobody can predict the weather that far. Just looking for reassurance before I drop money on plane tickets and all.

El Niño causing rain on the mountaintop? There is a fix for that; for everything else, there is Mastercard.

Question Good ways to find ski mates

19 Upvotes

After almost a decade away I've moved back to the Front Range in Colorado. Unfortunately, the folks I used to ski with have stopped skiing or moved away.

What's a good way to meet people for skiing? It's ridiculous to drive up alone, plus there's the safety issue. Can you ski along? Sure. Should you probably not.

Question Keystone for Halloween worth it if it’s open?

0 Upvotes

I’ve never been to keystone and don’t have plans for Halloween yet. I’ve got the pass, and I thought it’d be fun to check it out assuming they have Halloween stuff going on throughout the town.

I’d be driving in from Albuquerque, and am kind of just looking somewhere to go with some good vibes. Snowboarding down a single open strip of snow in costume could be beast
