Just some follower. Couple years ago when Cat in January came through I was easy to spot. Finding a stranger in the Alps is always difficult, but you wanna find a stranger in the Selkirks? Used to be you could just ask him to wear his purple pants. No more, it seems.Quote:

Don't you people have jobs?!?! Between my buddies at Schweitzer posting up their bluebird powder day shots and this, I'm starting to wonder what the hell I'm doing wrong.
there's a trailhead parking lot and campground at the pass;Quote:

scout the road before you pull your RV in there,

Mt Spokane was fun. Backside was still a go! Park jumps were fun too although I only went through it twice.
Snow is definitely getting stickier... took couple whiplash style slams because my board would just stop sliding.

That's been the case for as long as I remember during the spring. On the other hand, Schweitzer received 8" of new snow over the past 24 hours so it's back to full-on winter, at least for a few days. Spring skiing is fun, just different from earlier in the season.Quote:

Record seasonal snowfall for Schweitzer this year. 416" as of yesterday, breaking the 98/99 record of 412". And....it ain't over! Nothing but more snow in the forecast through the weekend... Well, a little freezing rain possible, too but still.
might be the best April pow in memory
lines opening up that I haven't skied in years
