Woops - replace the 4's with 3's.
Once again, I'm way ahead of everyone else.
Man, do I hate my job. I can't check the forums from there now, and I'm missing the fuck out.
I'm there this weekend (Bohemia that is). Staying slopeside. Will have one other skier, and three drinkers. Lots of beer. More than welcome to have a few with us. Also will be grilling home made brats. So who's in?
EDIT: Oh yeah, Jer...I don't have a touring setup. :(
cool enough
Cool shots. I went to college in the U.P. I routinely slayed Mt. Ripley. YOOPER STOKE!!!
It's snowing really hard up there right now. I'm leaving in the next half hour. I've got some really crappy snowshoes and also a pair of alpine trekkers and some skins cut for a 95mm ski. I'll bring all this shit up just in case.
Red jacket (black if it's super cold), ARV's with Alta stickers, long hair and beard, black Boeri helmet.
Sweet all, thanks for the offers. There's snow shoes in the cabins at Bohemia, too. So we're set.
I'm in a gray jacket with orange zippers, gray pants. Probably be riding last years Prophet 100s with the yellow topsheet, or last year's black Elizabeths. Other guy has a gray jacket as well, with Elan 888s with aluminum topsheet. Again, we'll be slopeside. I'd give you my number, but my phone doesn't work up in the Yoop.
NINJA EDIT: Just called out there to get a bed in the hostel for a last-minute addition. Person on the phone at Bohemia said 8" last night and it's been snowing since. DISCO.
CAW!!!!!!
I demand a follow up TR when Jer gets back from TCTSNB n TMOM n Vampire Country.
An EXTREME TR!
Jer,
How was it this last week? I might be up in that area soon and am debating if it'll be worth it or not to make the extra few hr drive.
There won't be any TR. I skied Friday, met one of Fonixmunkie's buddies (Richard) and shortly after I got some wierd illness (actually a curse, I think). I started feeling really weak and shitty, so I went back to Motel Hell where I started feeling even worse. I slept til about 11 Saturday then drove back home. Tye, Richard and Fonix - hope you guys had a good time up there. Sorry for bailing, but I really did feel like poop.
Bmills - Friday was about 5" of new. This is one of those occasions where Lonnie's snow stake must have been in a prime location, since he claimed 8" (I think). The sun is getting pretty high this time of year and everything south facing gets sun crusted. Except for the Haunted Valley and some areas in the Outer Limits, there was a lot of dust on crust. If a storm dumps a bunch of new snow it'll be pretty good til the sun hits it again. Just getting to be that time of year.
Jer: good to meet you. Richard is actually me, hehe.
I was wondering where you were at...we were back in the Outer Limits for most of Friday, but didn't ever see you...and of course, with as empty as it was, we never saw you on the chair either. Sorry you got so sick! Just some 24 hour bug or something? I'd say you missed out on terrific conditions, but you already know.
Anyway, I met up with TyWeb. Made a few turns with him just under the Haunted Valley that we'd never been in for fear of the hike out. He showed us a great line with only a little work. After that, we met up for some beers and had a good time.
Small, weak-ass TR coming soon.
TyWebb: Check your PMs!
Hey Richard...good to meet you and your buddies. Thanks for the beers and hospitality :yourock: - bummer we missed you Jer, maybe next time.
Grabbed just a couple photos over the weekend...here you go:

Ha - I know exactly where that is.
Fonix - I was skiing Outer Limits before I met up with ya. After that I stayed back on Haunted Valley 'til I got dizzy and started hooking trees. Snow was better back there. Glad you guys got to the grim goods. Still feel like poo.
STOKEAFKNALICIOUS
Bump

I need some UP in my life. One of these days...
Good stuff! I know the unnamed mountain you speak of and might check it out this winter.
Fucking Bohemian weirdos
