The day started at 8am at the Frisco trailhead. We were a bit bleary after having a ton of fun at the Rocky Mountain High CAIC Benefit at the Dam Brewery the night before. We started up Mt Royal and took it nice and easy. Just as we were heading out of the lot we [...]

Got up for some decent snow today. It was pretty fun to ski some soft right-side up snow for a change. Nice light density at the top made for awesome turns. Great to see you Brian. Looking forward to getting some big lines done soon.

Well after a week with my kids I was itching to get out and get some. I dropped them off at school and headed up to Butler for some laps. The snow was really good and I got 5 laps in for 4200′ of vertical. I did it in 4:20 car to car. It was [...]

So out the gates we went in search of soft goodness. We found some good stuff and some not so good stuff yesterday. There were [...]

I figured I’d just save a little time with this trip report since it was all meadow skippy skiing from all the same storm. It’s so good to have some new snow to ski. Feeling the cold air in my lungs again lets me know I’m alive. The excitement of checking the weather forecast is [...]

After 2 really nice, long bike rides in the front range I figured I’d try and get up high. Sorry no pics from the rides. I figured that Lambs Slide would be holding some snow but I was worried that with the lack of snow it might have turned to ice. I figured it was [...]
