Thanks for the video, but what is a headwall?
@Bram4Real 18 күн бұрын
Headwall sometimes refers to the steeper section at the top of a trail if there is one.

Thanks for posting a high quality, high resolution video! Was awesome to watch it on a high quality monitor! I went on 6/1/2019, they had top to bottom, ski on ski off.

didn't even notice they were DD EX until I read your write up. tbf, part of that is not being/feeling like you're on the top of the world above the tree line. except for the snow having that "spring skiing" sort of mush to it, it looked great. so many wonderful options for bumps out west. could almost never do the same run twice whereas I contented myself lapping the same one or two trails all day in the NE. 😁
@Bram4Real 26 күн бұрын
Yeah there's so much variety! I'm kinda the same way out East but I can't tell if that's just because I have incentive to mix it up for recordings purposes. I find that at places like Killington where I've already filmed almost everything I end up doing a lot of repeat laps though. Colorado resorts are just a lot bigger, and since I could only really do day trips out there it made sense to take in as much of each resort as possible. An interesting side note is that A-Basin is considered a small resort by CO standards but it's the same size as Killington and Sugarloaf!

What an awesome season they had. I was lucky enough to go 7 weekends in a row. I wished I went back this last weekend to just ride it. End to a great winter at killington.

I guess I'm spoiled out here in Utah, but no way I would hike for that. Is it even fun?
@Bram4Real 28 күн бұрын
I just spent 4 months in Colorado and can kinda see where you’re coming from haha. But this was pretty early in the season (December pow is almost unheard of out here) and I was just happy to get some natural terrain under my skis. But this probably wouldn’t even have been open in Colorado or Utah.

@@Greg41982 Yeah that part rocks! I wouldn’t give the resort too much credit since it’s just left over from the bike park but I’m kinda glad they kept it. You made me watch the video again and it’s crazy how much my skiing has improved since I filmed this. Thanks for watching!

Steep, narrow and boney can be just as much fun as deep powder!
@daneg 28 күн бұрын
that looks...awful. long sideways traverse to gt to 50'-100' vertical of skiing, and then 2x the traverse on the runout? 😌
@Bram4Real 28 күн бұрын
It's probably better with actual powder and wax on the skis, in that case the first traverse is more like an actual trail and the runout is pretty scenic.
@Nflcastle 28 күн бұрын
Looks like very good coverage and deep snow where there still is some. Looking at the webcam rn looks like no snow except for 2 piles.

those big bumps still to stiff to bust through? was really trying to direct you over/through them with the force at one point. 😀
@Bram4Real Ай бұрын
Not too bad, I had shorter skis today so it felt a little easier than the week before.
@daneg Ай бұрын
huh. first DD that had me scratching my head. I guess it's because of the rocks? or b/c it's the bottom of a bunch of steeps?
@Bram4Real Ай бұрын
I think it's the rocks, they might be obligated to mark it as such because of the legal definition of a double diamond in Colorado, so it might qualify from some of the steeper drops. Otherwise it might just be to discourage what would probably be frequent injury from unprepared skiers who might fly through it and go off a low-vis cliff or something lol
@KennethDuda Ай бұрын
Bet those bumps are challenging first thing in the morning!

The coverage this late is phenomenal. And there is literally no one there. Warm temps. Soft snow. No crowds. What is not to like.

Well, I don't like that I had to go back East too soon haha... but yeah, really underestimated how nice late April and May were out there! Plenty of late season snowfall as well

They’ve closed a fair bit of terrain in the two weeks since I’ve been there but there’s still plenty to go around! Plus there’s a small amount of snow in the forecast for tonight from what I’ve seen. But keep in mind it’s still late May so lower your expectations haha

as a person who never bothered to do minuscule hike required to take upper catwalk from the top at killington, there's zero chance I would ever, nor could ever understand, hiking up the rocky western peaks in ski boots. that said, I think the traverses are the absolute worst part of it. full on panic mode. those rocks sticking out. no "guard rails" (as it were). and this video isn't even close to the worst. I almost pissed myself watching the traverse atop Mott's Canyon at Heavenly. OMFG. lul my legs would just turn to jelly. 😅 good on you though! I'll stick to lift service.

now this looks fun! sounds great too! I have trouble with pitch on the gopro. can you compare this to outer limits on bear (just steepness)?

They're actually pretty similar! OL has an average steepness angle of about 28° and Outhouse is around 27-28°. OL is a bit longer though

is it just me or do ppl out west treat the safety bar on lifts as optional window decoration?
@Bram4Real Ай бұрын
Yeah it was kinda crazy to me at first. I always put the bar down when it's just me on the chair out of habit but I've only been asked maybe like 15 times this entire season by someone else, one of which apologized profusely and said it was customary in Aspen.
