Snowbird today after 2 feet of snow. I'm pretty ready for summer and mountain biking.

A few snaps from skiing yesterday (May 9, 2024) below Sublette Peak in the Shoshone National Forest of Western Wyoming. A little XC tour with SBound 98's and Alfa Vista Leather Boots

Did you get injured, or just run out of snow?

My skiing season ended April 7, skiing the melting man made at Boyne Mt. I think the lift ticket was only $20!
No place in Michigan is above 2000 feet. We don’t have elevation extended winter.

It’s starting to look like a run now after a few years of taking down dead trees. The new aspens are chest high and I’m hesitant to do much trimming until I can see the dominant saplings. Then thin them out to a tree run?

Just ski, your edges will trim the run to your natural rhythm

Grouse in the new growth?

Doesn't look terribly steep, easy run, could just thin it now, you won't kill off the forest by selecting less than primo genes.

Nothing overachieves quite like moisture on NW winds around here. Snow unexpectedly arrived last night all the way down to the valley.

You can never have enough skis and boots.
