hey, I am moving to jackson (GTNP) actually, may 23, and I am wondering how long spring BC skiing lasts, how good it is, where to go, and basicaly is it worth it to bring out my skis and all my shit, cause I am very short on space....Gracias-

does anyone got the goods on backcountry beta for the area? I was working in the Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho last summer, and there was spring skiing until mid/late june. I figure spring is the safest time for BC skiing in J-Hole anyhow. It would be rad to ride with someone with good local beta...

I am most likely moving to tahoe this coming winter, and was wondering what the best mt to work at based on scheduling, pay, housing, scene, and the mt itself. Also best dirtbag fun town/area to live in, I am pretty sure I am to poor to live in south lake...Is truckee expensive?

Pagosa Springs, CO- Wolf Creek Ski area, cheap small town, best powder in CO, easy to get a job on the mountain, non-corporate hippie vibe, overall a well kept secret!

oh yea, I just remembered an idea- I think t-hall and sean white are the represent the same for each sport, there both really good, both are over exposed, and many people find them both to be irritating, or love them. kind of funny.

Obviously this is an matter of opinion and taste, but you have to admit c. thorvex is as good or in my opinion better than t-hall, so why doesnt he get as much coverage? T hall thinks he is a rock star, im sure he is a nice kid, but these park kids think he is a god, I am just saying he is...

I know east coasters dont have the big mountian access, but I was refering to just basic skiing riding, not just big mountian, my freind who skis mainly park fumbles through pow and trees, and resort crusing. You can still cruise out east and you still use form and style when cruising, my point...

salomon pocket rockets (allthough not on your list)- I think this ski is truely one of the best hybrids and allround ski you can get. Super light weight, flex and twintip for park, and fat for pow and big mtn, and responsive for cruising the resort. I love them they also come in 165 which sounds...

tanner gets so much coverage, he's sick but c.thorvex is sicker. I wonder if tanner can rip big mountain? no sponsers watching so prob not!

has anyone noticed that alot of riders that ride only in the park can barely make a turn in the steeps? whether it be airplane turning down a couilar or a clift out technical line, or even just fluid pow riding, they seem to allmost forget how to ski. Maybee park folks should get out and ride...

hey anyone have any recomindations or info on the new terrain at mass? I just read the article in powder about it, I guese its just that whole cliff band that used to be only open for comps. It was closed when I was there early season..

I just bought some pocket rockets and I want to put my Salomon 900 carbon's on (older model 98 maybee?) - are they compatible- or can I bend them? - Any Advice?
