- Exploring the legendary back bowls of Vail and Blue Sky Basin. It was my first time skiing Vail since I was about seven years old and I had the best time! At over 5,200 aches, Vail is the largest ski resort in Colorado and one of the largest in the United States! The mountain is comprised of a frontside with traditional clear cut trails, wide open back bowls, and natural terrain littered with trees and rocks out in Blue Sky Basin. Vail is located about an hour and a half west from Denver off Interstate 70 making it a close option to the front range, but expect large crowds at this resort. A large footprint does help spread people out and if you are an advanced skier I recommend heading the Blue Sky Basin right away.

Most underrated skiing vlog on youtube. Keep it up!
Thanks bro 🙏 I appreciate it!
You sir are an animal. I think Vail owes you money. Was just there feb 14 thru 19, good snow day on the 17th... cant ski like that anymore, 61 but i love cruising now..so..cheers
Your skiing is so impressive. I used to be able to ski like that but body seems to breaking down more often.
Yes, I know the feeling at 79.⛷️👍🇦🇺
Would love it if you were able to ski the bowls again in this powder. I was just back there and texted my wife that i didn't know this was a bucket list item before i headed down poppy fields for first tracks, but with five inches of powder it was. This video shows your ability but man it doesn't look much fun with all the ice. Champagne Glades had much more and it was amazing.
Aren’t you a lucky guy👍👍👍. From Australia 🇦🇺
Man, this guy can really ski!!
Thanks bro
Really enjoyed your video. Love going to Vail but, man, it has gotten so expensive! Keep up the good work!
At first I was like, “this guy is pretty good” Then he hit those black diamond mogul trails and now I’m like 😳. Did Yonder for the first time today, and it was quite the challenge
You’re so good at shredding those moguls! I hope I can get to blue sky basin soon, you made it look great.
You’re an unbelievable skier. In the words of Shane McConkey “best damn skier on this mountain!”
Not nearly the best but I appreciate it bro! I just love the sport but theres always something new to progress on
Holy crap, amazing skiing! Great vid!
Thanks!
Dude! You were shredding the $h*T outta the Back Bowls!!! Edge of your seat action! Great work!!!!!❤
Dude! This is my favorite ski video ever! So real
Thanks bro!
Went there previous month after the last huge snow dump, both are crazy enough!!!
Sick dude! Well done. I haven't been there forever...
Dang last few vids i've been at the same mountains on the same days and skiing the same areas but yet to run into you
Nice edit, man.
Thanks brother bear
I will try to watch the rest of this later. Do you know what the actual date was? I was told that Vail opened up their bowls before Breckenridge did last season. If that is the case I might head out there this year when they open up their bowls.
Sweet.. Those K2 sure seam a lot like the Salomon QST 106s that I broke my arm on. Just tanks..
This was the beginning of February!
@@coloradocamera Wow.. Pretty good snow for the beginning of February..
Darin Smith February better have good snow!
@@coloradocamera Yeah.. I like that good hard pack February snow.. Now I just have to figure out the thaw;)
Id love love to hit up Vail.
Bluebird day,,yee haa
i was just up there. i have 9 more days left on my epic pass
Certified badass
Different boards today!
Your go pro cant keep up with you bro!
amazing! how wide were your skis?
108 underfoot
@@coloradocamera thanks, honestly I can't remember seeing a more impressive compilation of runs and ability on TH-cam, it was really fun to watch.
How long does it take to go on the gaundala
Goes fast holds 10 people per cabin
Do you do any kind of conditioning? My legs would be beat to a pulp doing even just 25% of what you're showing in the video, and nowhere near as skillfully...impressive stuff!
Mountain biking, going to try and get into the gym this summer
Dude! Slow down through those trees! I’d be dead if I tried skiing through trees like that.
At least the trees are predictable other skiers on crowded slopes? Not so much.
nothing says "America" like "Monopoly"...wait...
? p̷r̷o̷m̷o̷s̷m̷
The back bowls almost always have very poor skiing conditions. The reason for that is they face the sun. They're crusty nasty not fun to ski at all. Anyone who thinks otherwise has never lived in Vail. I can here the terrible conditions under your skis.
Northwoods and Blue Sky Basin was better snow forsure, maybe a nice spring day in the bowls is better
@@coloradocamera I may have been a bit harsh. The back bowls after a cover of fresh powder is awesome. Also love doing the Minturn mile in any condition.
@@jeffmutrie227 I was impressed by some of the cliffs at Vail theres some good stuff there forsure
I lived there for 7 seasons and can honestly say I never skied the entire mountain/Ridgelines/bowls. What was fun were the cornices. They're kinda like cliffs. Never skied outer Mongolia or the east Vail chutes. Basically we were based out of lions head and stayed close to home. Good times!
Vail is horribly overrated in my mind. cool vid tho
vile resorts! yuck
