The last time I skied the back bowls of Vail it was wall to wall moguls the size of Volkswagen Beetles. I have never seen the back bowls groomed like that. It's been a few years since I have been to Vail because I moved away, so not sure this is a new thing Vail is doing. The back bowl moguls were the only reason I used to go to Vail. They used to keep it all natural.

Awesome vid!

Looks like you had fun!

This looks amazing.. was this on a week day or weekend??

Weekend but this first thing in the morning. I was around the 4th or 5th chair

This looks awesome! How challenging are these runs? Are they crazy steep? A lot of obstacles?

This and under the lift are blue trails. On the other side of the trees are the blacks. There's some wide open trails and tree runs

Vail is not a very hard mountain. You can find some good runs that are steep but places like Telluride and Jackson Hole will eat it's lunch if you like steep. That said, Vail is still my favorite hill. It's massive, fun runs, restaurant at the top- 11,000 feet up is really cool and the town is fancy but still fun. Just go!

Nice! How do you like those Elan Ripsticks by the way? They seem pretty versatile. Can you carve pretty decently in them for being 96 underfoot?

I love them. They're a great all mountain ski. Anything deeper then shin deep and you'll start to sink but they're perfect for days like this.
