Skiing and Boarding ain’t easy, especially when the weather is not so predictable. The bums tell you how we track the weather.

      • Super-Exclusive Colorado Ski Area Will Only Have 12 Cabins

        New private ski areas like Montana’s Yellowstone Club and Vermont’s Hermitage Club don’t come along too often, and a recently-debuted ski club in Colorado just might be the most exclusive one yet. According to the Denver Post, the brand new Cimarron Mountain Club is a “powder paradise” in Southwest Colorado and skiers and snowboarders who buy into the development will get unlimited cat and guided skiing. That’s right, Cimarron Mountain Club residents will be able to ski more than 1,000 acres and 60 ski runs of unlimited powder with literally no one around them. But here’s the catch (and it’s a big one): the private ski area will only be available to 12 owners and their guests.

        The Cimarron Mountain Club is developing only 12 parcel sites (averaging more than 100 acres each) to ensure that the powder remains untracked and there is plenty of wilderness to enjoy. That means that only 12 wealthy buyers can get in on the action, and homesites range from $2.7 million to $3.85 million. All owners pay annual dues of at least $50,000 each year, but that cash pays for plenty of top-notch amenities like unlimited snowcat and guided skiing, groomed cross country skiing, and a planned clubhouse with a restaurant, bar, spa, pool, and gym.

      • Vonn Dominates in Weekend’s Races

        Meanwhile, Lindsey Vonn continued to dominate the women’s races, inching ever closer to becoming the most decorated World Cup racer of all time. Vonn already holds the record for most GS wins, and with a downhill win (her 36th win in the discipline) she matched Austrian Annemarie Moser-Proell’s all-time best mark in the discipline. She took the downhill at 2:11.17, followed by a full second by Canada’s Larisa Yurkiw. Vonn also won Super G, followed by Switzerland’s Lara Gut. Austria’s Cornelia Huetter took third in both events.

      • World’s Longest Shot Ski

        It’s doubtful anyone at the bar will care that Ann Atkins set the record for the largest collection of garden gnomes with 2,010 or that the record for most people twerking simultaneously is 358. But this Thursday, nearly 900 skiers, drinkers, and generally the type of people we like to spend our afternoons with, will line up down Main Street in Breckenridge, Colorado, in an attempt to break the only world record that really matters: World’s Longest Shot Ski.
