I remember. It is why I always push off on tbs with every lift ride. Looking forward to some soft snow for first turns of the year!

Loper, Bobsy,
Rock skis off piste at the Doo? I’m planning on bringing an entire quiver as my legs and conditions wear through the day ... but rock skis require me to scrape storage wax and move bindings off my “who knows what conditions” skis ...
It’s still a kinda boney in the weeds shralph but filling in nicely. Not so sure the fun:effort ratio justifies remounts et al for this weekend.
BTW, know that jonesy doesn’t mess with no wax scraping - he just melts it off as he skis
Be like jonesy
BF inserts on the rock skis and all mountain skis ...
Thanks, I’ll see how late it is when I get the rest of my gear together lol.
Steady stream of traffic in sandy at 6am. Hopefully everyone finds a spot. Looking like a good day
Snow level came down very low this storm cycle! Time to enjoy 12” of dust on top of bullet proof. My bet is Groomer skis required today.
About the only time you’ll hear me complain about low density snow. Hope the next storm comes in warm to consolidate some of this stuff...
we do need base
but, hey, it’s not even winter yet...it will come
fx for tonight going into mon
Mutterings from friends at the hill this am
MHM main lot full at 8.10a & all lots full by 9.30a
Ski Bowl opened today (& night ops hinted to start Mon)
Pics of pow ya hosers
Early bird gets the worm and a parking spot. Going one ridge further than others pays dividends.

Magnificent photo op tft. Hoodoo is the new bachelor. That company jacket, run of the lodge,cheap food & descrete line maneuvers. It's good to be king.
The snow was surprisingly fluffy at the ‘Doo.
Lift lines moved OK for how busy it was, even with the @#$&* instructors cutting the line.
Tired legs from back-back days
Nice pics!
Line coming home from Meadows looked brutal. Good to be back in Central Oregon.
TFT nice work farming out newton today, I’ll ask for change next time.
Traffic home was a nightmare, 3.25hrs back to SE Portland from meadows

When we left at 12:30.... as we got to the bottom of Tflat road.... Were shocked to see the clusterfuck in both directions on 26. Took us a little bit longer than normal. But nothing like the afternoon stop and go experience.
IMHO, I really think timberline and ski bowl should limit day tickets. And lift mazes need to be extended out longer with better signage. There were a lot of people not socially distancing and a buch were maskless.
All its going to take are some cases at a resort and the overlords will shut it down.
It was backed up from around the talking rocks clear through to the turn off from Meadows to 26, and what looked like beyond. Snow bunny looked absolutely packed.Quote:

Right? Scary but possible. I saw a high school ski team coach set a really great example by keeping his mask below his chin till he was almost to the chair. I don't wanna be a karen or a hall monitor. But, I don't want the ski season to go away. Such a gift to have it this year. We should be doing everything we can to keep it, and, our loved ones, alive.Quote:
