The season is rolling for most of us around here. Snow is piling up and there's more on the way. Resorts are open and chairs are spinning. Instead of working, I've been watching cams and making threads about snow stakes on NS. It got me thinking, which resort has the best snow stake? A simple...

I need help. I scored a preorder on some Chipotle Blades and I need a binding to pair with 'em. I've narrowed down a few different choices, but I'd appreciate some insight. Option 1: Attack Demo bindings. These generally seem to be considered the best demo bindings out there. Pros: I could...

Epic Pass is $841 and Local Pass is $626. That's a 7% increase over last year, but 16% cheaper than the 20/21 season. It's $200 cheaper than the 22/23 Ikon Pass. Epic Passes go on sale today. A lot of us have been curious about what Vail would do to prices. This year has been a PR disaster for...

Mammoth just announced they will be opening Friday, October 29! They've been making snow since the 11th and there's a classic sierra dump in the forecast. It should be a healthy snowpack for an October opening day! Who's going to be there?

Vail Resorts on Tuesday announced that Rob Katz, who has led the company as its chief executive officer since 2006, will move into a new role as executive chairperson on Nov. 1.

https://www.sfgate.com/renotahoe/article/deadly-avalanche-bloom-comstock-alpine-meadows-15952248.php Sorry for the dark subject. Alpine Meadows is being sued over an inbounds avalanche last year that killed one and injured another. The whole situation is tragic. I got in an argument about this...

Sup dudes. I'll be skiing Park City from Feb 27 - Mar 1 with a few other guys from Reno. We've been all over Tahoe, but this is our first time skiing PC. I'm not a huge park guy, I prefer steeps, deeps, trees, drops, etc. What are some spots on the mountain to explore? Where should I avoid...

How often do ya'll wax your skis? Every night? Every 10 days? Never? I know the proper way to store skis over summer is with a nice healthy coat of wax. But what's your mid-season routine to keep those bases spiffy?

Sup guys. Just wanted to go over my thoughts on the Picture Object Pants. Nobody asked me for a review, but I have an hour to kill at work and I'd rather do this. I purchased these through REI in November. I have a very generous grandma who likes giving me REI gift cards for my birthday each...

The snowpack throughout much of the West Coast is no bueno (that means not good for our non-Spanish speaking readers). Here in Tahoe, our resorts are 50% of what they should be this time of year. From what I can tell, our friends in Utah have it even worse. Colorado is a little below average and...

I just watched Salomon's film The Chairlift last night and it got me thinking. I haven't seen a thread like this in a few years. What's your favorite chairlift out there and why? It doesn't have to be the fastest or have the raddest lines. Which lift is your favorite? Mine is chair 10 at...
