Bring it.

BIG snow amount forecasts for many of the CO mtns through end of week. A quick edit of some footage from Sunday at Berthoud pass. No music so be sure to play the music player on the blog.

There was 10" of new snow reported overnight and the snow was still falling. Helmet cam was a little shaky but good enough for a little teaser vid. Approximately 3,500 vertical over a 4hr tour... 7am-11am. Perfect timing as when we returned to the BP parking lot it was FULL. Not even room for Santa's sleigh...

12.11.10 Berthoud Pass

Arrived at the BP parking lot at 6:30am to find jdwicks, AKA John Denver, headlamp lit and itching to get on the uptrack. Fortunately we were waiting for one more (Jeff) so had some time to get down that last lung dart before we skinned over to Floral Park.

Lap 1: East Side, Floral Park:


I'm pretty sure Jeff & John (below) will tell you this is about as good as it gets for 7:00am:



Lap 2: West Side, The Plunge:


Lap 3: West Side, The Plunge:




The snow will continue through early week with a short break before the next front comes through just before the weekend... Keep 'em up!

Don't forget to be safe, read below article and link to video on youtube - drainage between BP and WP:

danger under the snowdon quad

Soligully and Trouble Maker on Snowdon quad chair getting ready to avoid the human bowling pins on the way down.  Well they avoided everyone except for each other.  They collided directly under the chair.  Soligully ended up in the woods and Trouble Maker had a close encounter with the snow gun.  Some crew we have! Steer clear of the rookie tele skier and "morgan rocket mouse" on her new skis
