Chair 11 opens!!!!

Saturday, December 15th, 2012

More terrain opens Friday 14th at Vail.

Jacquie and I had fresh tracks on Prima Friday afternoon. Chair 11 opened with Riva Ridge, Prima, Pronto, Northstar, Northwoods, South rim, North rim and Gandy Dancer (watch for the rollers). Its fast and fun right now. Vail only recorded 2″ from the storm last night but over cast skies and flurries are looking promising today. I will be headed out this afternoon for some turns with our guest if anyone is on the hill and wants to join me. I suggest a ski with some width. Have fun and enjoy the GREAT snow!

Vail’s Chair 4 jump

Saturday, April 23rd, 2011

Powder day before the end of the ski season and people were lined under Chair 4 Mountain Top Express to go off the big jump. Not the best of pictures (snowing a bit), but you can see quite a few people checking it out and getting ready to go off the cliff up on top and then off the jump.

Groomers below on April 23rd, record snow with 524 inches of snow for the ski season including 12 inches on the last day of the ski season.

April 4th, 2 more inches of new snow in Vail

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

Oh boy, it looks like April might be our best month for snow in the 2009-2010 ski season. Vail mountain reported another 2 inches of new snow at 6am. Light snow all morning so far and more on the way perhaps on Tuesday. Hope to get you pictures late this afternoon.

Afternoon update: it warmed up, so the snow at the bottom was turning to corn. Most of the powder in the Back Bowls turned to mashed potatoes. Bumps were soft. Below are some pictures mostly from the Front Side of Vail Mountain. Chris R.

More snowy trees. I’ll title this photo “Snow on Trees” and sell it for lots and lots.

Happy, happy, happy

We Love I-70 … Usually.
I admit it. We here in Vail have a love/hate relationship with I-70. Our friends in Aspen refer to Vail as "a highway runs through it". Guilty as charged. On the other hand, they may not admit it but I know they're jealous at the same time. �...
