So how about two laps in the BC, then a burger/pizza and beers at Molly Greens before night skiing. Recharge, dry out, tune up.

Let's set a tentative time for meeting at the bar, in case anyone else wants to join. 5:30?

Dibs, I need your address so I can find my bed/couch/dogbed.

Hell yeah. East or Bust, there will be people touring. It will be good.

If anyone is skiing the bird tomorrow I should be around most of the day. Green/black flylow jacket, burnt orange helmet, green/blue bodacious.

Also was thinking of bringing a grill and some hot dogs/brats for Thursday at Solitude. Anyone else planning on doing any sort of lunch tailgating?

Don’t underestimate how sketchy it can be going over the Blue Mountains in a snowstorm due to it’s low elevation, and realize there is no gas between Snowville and the 84/15 junction.

You should be fine, weather in LaGrande looks to be sunny tomorrow. Get fuel in Pendleton.

Awesome! Thanks for the heads up and wish I could have joined you guys at Chestnut. Between the 3 of us I am pretty sure we could save the world with a few chairlift rides philobrainstorms. That FB linky is not working for me but it looks zippered for sure!

Ah, my bad. I was in an area heavily favored by this weather pattern as it turns out. still, NWS has 9-17" over the next 24... hopefully the storm shows up for BBIUT!

sorry to hear this. I80 is probably the best way from CO>UT, but I have no idea how possible if at all possible it would be for you to make your way that far north from where you are

Safely through security. Overweight on the battle axes but the agent showed love. NOT boarding a 737MAX so all should be good.

Thanks for the offer on the spatulas Dibs but I am good now.

After paying the baggage extortion tax I was promoted to safety master and placed in the exit row. The lady next to me just said “I bet I’m the only one on this plane who has ever had to go out one of those windows.”

She couldn’t save that nugget till AFTER we landed?

Why, because she has pulled it open randomly before? Sounds like she's got a great story to be told.
