Great skating conditions today, hopefully you got to appreciate some of our uphill portions. Haters claim it's flat but that's just the fog--when you can see far enough ahead you notice the upslopes; really helps with navigation.Quote:

I honestly thought they were full of crap about Aspen Ski Co because how many times have I heard Vail/Intrawest/ASC etc is looking to buy XYZ. FKNA that business owner was correct.Quote:

if only we had a ski area to lure prospects!
Early Winters would have been really awesome, especially if meant that Washington Pass would have been plowed all winter.
LOLO
I don't know if Mount Adams fits in here. My son climbed the North Ridge this weekend. Could not ski it all. Some sections were too icy and rimed. Would not mind him having partners if any of you PNW mags are into sufferfests.
Really?! This is disappointing. Was hoping to get up it soon.Quote:

Back at Schweiz this weekend to see my girl run SG/DH.
Of course it was mixed precip all night and the lots are full of slop but its blue skies this morning.
^ I was thinking about you when I saw everyone training earlier this week wondering if you were back around these parts. Will keep an eye out for the fastest skier on the mtn.
49N was sunny, soft and pushy today;
shadowed runs were firm and edgy;
hello springtime ....
.
Silver sucked... like SUCKKKEEEDDDDD for the first run down Gem and lower continental then slowly improved as it got chewed up. By the end things were fast and carvy. SO MUCH FUN.
That being said north glades fuqqin rocked! Good day out with 2FUNKY and bourbon with Bdog for the last few runs.

any hotel recommendations in sand point?
low-ball $$ and staggering distance from the pubs are my top priorities ....
.
Sandpoint is a very dangerous place, don't risk your life. Take the train overnight to Whitefish. No money spent on lodging and you can drink all the way there and home via the rolling pub.
Quality Inn. Dirtbag price and within 6 or 7 blocks from downtown bars. One note; right next to railroad tracks so can be a little noisy.Quote:
