Photos of the week have been posted to the front page. Well done f@tony and Telestrom. All photos go into the final draw, not just the weekly winners. We’re off to a great start, keep those photos coming!
on the backside of Coronet peak, can you ride all the way down? Why does everybody traverse across to the right?
The traverse lines are to save a big walk out. These slopes are outside the ski area boundary.
It’s very tempting to keep going, but it would be a hard slog out in the deep snow. The following day, I saw some tracks from the very top to near the bottom. Not sure how long it would have taken for them to walk out.
I hate to be the buzzkill all the time, but please, PLEASE take the right gear with you when dropping OB. Just because Coro’s is small and the lift is in sight, doesn’t mean it won’t slide. It’s still ‘backcountry’ even if it’s to the side!
No joke, a guy was killed early season last year in a slide just outside the fence at Coro’s. Typical rope-duck situation “oh, pow looks sweet and it’s close to the resort, it’s onnnn!” *Crack, slide, buried, dead*
That’s the end of today’s safety talk.
And actually, a patroller got caught in an avalanche the first week coronet opened. I think right where those tracks were. Luckily he was ok though.
addendum to safety talk over.
Big Park is open…

Do you have your camera mounted on a pole or soemthing to get that angle?
I actually have a growth hormone problem which causes me to grow uncontrollably. I’m now currently about 7’6’‘. 
Below is a photo of the park crew guys messing around and hitting the jump with various objects in tow. That is me in the background with my camera.
*phew* thanks those crates to the back of the head would have hurt.
