Not to mention the sick pad they stayed in. Worked at the Durango, CO ski doo dealer last year and got to deliver two summit 163's to those guys. Thanks to Sean Aaron (photographer for Red Bull) and Joe Prebich ( Shaun White;s manager) for the hospitality. Shaun was super down to earth for a superstar. The pipe is in huricane pass just north of Silverton Ski Area. Was even bigger in person. No matter how much begging I did they wouldn't let me launch my IQR 600 into the foam. Sick Sick Sick!!!!!!!!

Yes, ears is awesome but if you think the silverton area is flat? Wow, come down here this winter and point out those flat spots to us. Not to mention most snow in the state every single year.....Wolf Creek

ssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[skibreeze]

BTW snow sucks at RE also, I hear the real riding is at cottonwood

 

[tudizzle]

Cottonwood?

everyone knows if you want the steep and deep Ophir Creek can't be beat

 

[black swan]

another vote for Rabbit Ears, near Steamboast...Just 30 min north of Kremmling, Colorado. If i died and went to sled heaven, it'd be RE, anyone else just doesnt have good snow, imo of course

 

[claydogm8]

Going to ride RE this winter. But I live like 30 miles from Silverton and its the knarliest place to ride.

 

[bushy]

Yep, most snow in the state is in the south, fluffiest too! So go there. We won't mind the snubbing and just get by with our crappy snow

 

[Boondock]

RE is by far the best I have ever ridden! It is awesome minus the I70 traffic.

 

[Hammertime]

Another vote for the south side Cottonwood, Silverton, Wolfcreek they had wicked snow last year the deepest I've ever rode in. OVER 3 ft of white fluffy pow with a base your could barely get to. Awsome places to ride! RE was marginal last year mostly packed out and very little fresh.

Problem with other areas is snow is inconsistant or missing. Often, only Vail Pass and RE gets the snow. Due to global warming 80% of CO no longer gets snow..Period..

As you head, north toward the arctic circle the snow appears starting at Summit County. its just Weird...

 

[Tec]

There is definitely no missing or inconsistent snow in the San Juan's, Silverton/red mountain pass is in your face 40-55 degree slope. Definitely the closest thing to AK, in CO.

Sarcasm is a form of humor that uses sharp, cutting remarks or language intended to mock, wound, or subject to contempt or ridicule, generally saying the opposite of what the statement really is.



Usage

Hostile, critical comments may be expressed in an ironic way such as saying "don't work too hard" to a lazy worker. The use of irony introduces an element of humour which may make the criticism seem more polite and less aggressive but understanding the subtlety of this usage requires second-order interpretation of the speaker's intentions. This sophisticated understanding is lacking in some people with brain damage, dementia and autism

Ray, the snow is all going to end up on Baxter Pass this yr. Get ready.

BTW Great vids of Shawn White and the making of the halfpipe.
