Flagstaff Conditions

Skiing around the mtb trails and woods with a 3 pin fishscale setup

That sounds pretty fun.

Yeah, we have some of that I guess. It's extremely rocky around here though.

It wasn’t that long ago that I would have thought you were crazy if you told me that I’d prefer basic packed powder skiing days over a powder day but well, here we are. The wfh post Covid era, the ever growing population of Arizona and the powder skiing hype has finally made powder days lose their value for me. The sleeper midweek days are a thing of the past now and this shit show is just too much for me.

We got three runs in and I was done. Conditions were fantastic and I enjoyed it, sort of.

Looks sort of like a Vail resort line

Yup. It’s very successful.

I wouldn’t exactly call days like this skiing though. It’s more like a bunch of standing around with a small side of skiing. I can’t get warmed up enough to feel like I’m actually skiing.

Damn there aren’t any other hills out in AZ worth going to? Luckily the abundance of New England ski areas keeps at least a couple uncrowded, if you’re ok with sacrificing a couple hundred feet of vert.

Only show in town really. It’s 2 hours to Phoenix.

It’s the Hunter of the South West.

Check out that singles line. It peeled back up the ski run a couple hundred feet!

Well don’t be too discouraged after all it’s a holiday yet.
Hopefully you get some midweek time.
