Anybody else not done skiing yet?

It was nice to see Palmer Lift on Hood running today. Awesome weather and sparsely populated.

I wonder if Arapahoe Basin will open up for July 4th like they did a few years ago? Or maybe they will still be open...

Still going.

Hintertux Gletscher?

Hintertux Gletscher?

Yup

 

[Nobody]

I was there in November '22, my first time, nice place but the glacier ice was out from the snow in places...

I got new liners 5/15 and am on a mission to break them in.

The snow was pretty late in coming this autumn, after a hot May had done a lot of damage, and then of course a tough summer. Not a big winter this year either ...

Speaking of which, @Nobody , do you ever head up to Stelvio in summer? If so, I'll open a new thread.

Skis are all waxed and ready for the weekend! First Timberline trip of the spring/summer.

Speaking of which, @Nobody , do you ever head up to Stelvio in summer? If so, I'll open a new thread.

Rarely, usually in August, September, October depending upon:
1) The Glacier is still open (which, like last summer, it wasn't)
2) The coach I train with has an opening for 2/3 days of GS training. His first camp will be this June 2-3-4 (long week end here in Italy) but I'll be by the seaside with the family enjoying a bit of snorkeling, skin diving, SUPping and sun (hopefully).
I tend to ski as long as the Tonale/Presena area keeps open (this year they closed May 1st, but because of major overhaul works on the cable cars), which is usually until June 1st, and then to move with the melting snow toward the sea.
This summer, BTW the "Stelvio beach" is due to open on June 1st. The best period to go there is, in fact, snowwise, June and July.

Then, as "my" coach moves to L2A in France for the month of July, I possibly head there for a week end as well...again, last year it closed early and my plan was somehow disrupted

Buuut, @Zirbl , last time we skied, my son asked if it would be possible for me and him to ski at the Stelvio this summer...so I think I will face less opposition from the house CFO when I'll plan to head there this summer, if doable, at least one week end (or a couple of days) each month...

Found on the net.

I'm done! (I think)

I've been biking very strongly. So don't feel like breaking the rhythm to ski again till next season.

I love spring/early summer. Spoiled for choices, skiing, biking, kayaking, hiking. This year I chose to bike.

Not done yet! Epic day with @oldfashoned yesterday @ Alpine Meadows. I love this pic, sorry for the double posting with the Tahoe thread. Here we are about to drop the Palisades at Alpine. We hit a few "things" during the day. Coverage is amazing but rocks are, understandably, starting to pop. @oldfashoned got a core shot, but it was all worth it.

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

I’m done. Mountain biking and surfing now.

[crosscountry]

That's looking very, very nice!

But still not enough to tempt me away from my bike.

Never EVER done skiing yet! There is no offseason. Lol. Great turns all through the weekend! Hoping to ski through July at a minimum.

Not done (snowboarding)…heading home from a weekend getaway in Utah. Snowbird still has quite the base…

(Me for scale)

Quite the wiggle going…

First time at Snowbird, obligatory Tunnel photo…

Just an average ski car…
When you have a reservation and they don’t have your car available, you take whatever upgrade they give you…great fun driving this one up the canyon

Mammoth up next in July! (Good chance I’ll be back on two planks for that one)

Love your ski car!! So cool.

Did anybody say July skiing? As in ... Real skiing? Amazing day today. Drove infinite hours to Mammoth, got here late, woke up early, hooked up with another skier on the lift and he showed me around. Climax is skiing beautifully
