Steamboat was ridunkulous today. I was a lazy f*@ker and didnt get up there until lunchtime so I thoroughly expected everything to be tracked out and generally gaper-fied.

But the goods were still in abundance and it was one of those days when I would of drowned with the BRO.

It's been dumping all day though and the hill was seriously quiet, even with stormpeak chair being closed.

The visuals:

We need to be able to post more pics on the board!

Yeah, Im the town mayor of FaceShotVille.

It's almost TOO sick, if I go fast I cant see shit, if I go slow I can see but the snow literally piles up infront of me and stops me dead:

Plus it's completely gay going slow. ever.

So back to the white room.

I was planning to head down to Cressted Butte, but I may just have to hang around the boat a little longer.

Wheels, sorry for being crap with emails lately, I've been kinda distracted by the stoke here in Colorado.

Email sent now though, hope it helps you out, Sunshine is an awesome place to ski, have fun!!!

Yep, sure has been dumping in Steamboat. Amazing powder up there right now.

So much snow it's pretty difficult to see where the hell you're going in a sitski.

Check out this little video from steamboat 2 days ago.
