Big Mountain Update – 1/9-1/15 *WITH WEEKEND TIMES

Written by Team Summit on . Posted in Big Mountain.

There's a bit more snow in the forecast.  While the heaviest amounts won't be around our parts, it looks like some of our future destinations will continue to pick up a fair amount of snow.  The skiing is coming around, but there's still plenty of danger. This past weekend we saw some bigger airs open up, but it's still Colorado in early January.  Please always scope the landings before hitting any airs.  This is the time of year where any injuries likely will result in missing competitions, so let's keep the fuzzy side up out there. Schedule 1/10...

Back to Copper this week. Schedule 12/6 Copper ski, possibly barn 12/7 Copper recovery (no ski) 12/9 Copper ski, possibly barn General Notes I'm amazed by this group right now.  The talent level is pretty ridiculous, so let's keep up the strong work and growth mindset.  If you're going to miss a training – which I sincerely hope you don't – please communicate this with me.  The season is long, but not that long. I've taken some extra steps this year to make a more well-rounded academy program, and focus on our total development...
