Given the low snow pack in many parts of the country, lots of us haven't gotten skied since April. Really glad that there is still snow in Montana for you to enjoy. Keep posting pics for those of us that are deep into the off season.

Looks like I should move, raise up some dental floss....

Glad to see someone still getting out - nice work.

If we had conditions like that in CO, I would be trying to get in some turns, but my last day was Memorial Day. Although decent, it was thin enough and has been warm enough since that I have switched to climbing and riding until winter returns at this point.

Haven't skied since mid May. Earliest melt out that I've ever seen in 30 years up here.

Cold whiteout in the 3 Sisters last week!

Far from the CO burning scene.

Yep.

I'm still getting out.

I've been busy since then with a camp, but I'm going to try to get back up there this coming Friday.

Some, headed to the West Side of PWS as their snow pack is still too the shore. This side is starting to have snow-field connectivity issues. Dern-it
