They got Red spinning a bit after 10:30am that alleviated the lift line at big Pine.
The snow was indeed good off the groomers. Had to pick your lines, lest you get taken down by a sapling.

^The Toad report. Always reliable.
It's a shame the weather is not co-operating.

Mierda snow already
How was it today. I currently have to vicariously live through others as I broke my arm on a MTB in October. I will be out there soon though.

Snow came in exceptionally light and dry for central Oregon. It was cold and squeaky this morning. Seemed to make most patrons happy.Quote:

I love cold snow and good light

Nicely buffed runs (loud powder) with sun. Private ski venue in the AM. Crack of nooners were pull in at 12. Word on the street, snow next week.
Sunny day, little wind, low tide, “firm” groomers and coral reef off the groom.
Much like the days 10 years ago - to the week IIRC - that a certain maggot brought his lovely wife and 8yo son to ski at MtB. Interloper and I would activate GPS on our phones, stick it in the kids pocket, and turn him loose to see what he could hit for top speed. I think his PR for the trip was 48, maybe 50 mph.
Tell the boy happy birthday.

Ample waves & moderate sharks
This is the first time I can remember that Vista opened before MHE
maybe CSX will go first too?
I've search way too long and can't find the thread on this douche nozzle, Gabriel Owens
Mt biker who sued and won against Skibowl
...karma...?
Oregon millionaire’s fatal OD ends manslaughter case against him; fight over estate begins
https://www.oregonlive.com/crime/202...te-begins.html
The fatal overdose of an Oregon City man has spelled the end of the DUII manslaughter case against him — and ignited a new legal battle over his estate.
Gabriel Owens, who was awarded more than $10 million during a civil trial last year for injuries he sustained during a mountain biking crash on Mount Hood, was back in court this September, accused of killing another driver while high on pills.
While prosecutors had no choice but to close the case without a verdict, the brother of crash victim Kira Haston now says he is mulling a wrongful death suit against Owens’ estate.
burn in hell motherfucker ....
.
Such a sad situation. The guy had a negative impact on so many people
$10 mil and still couldn't get it right. What a waste.
Fucking El Niño
Where’s the fucking snow?
When the little boy hits hard, it usually a late December start, unfortunately
Cascade is going today, but still very bony with brown relocated snow
Skied pretty soft around noon though! Felt good to rip some proto-corn, slush, and burn the legs in for the seasonQuote:

Not much else to report.
^^^How much on vs off @Red?
Kind of a bummer they offer passholders early ups then it don’t “up”
I got 3 runs in from 8am-9am. There was no real line at 8am. Maybe 20 skiers total. But the line grew as the chair stopped and started. It was somewhat annoying. It would run for a few minutes, stop for 30 seconds. Or just slow down to half speed. Probably would have been no line at all if it had just run slow and steady.Quote:

Soggy, socked-in day on Oregon's most eligible mountain. Punchy saturated runnels off trail, grabby groomers, a few short-lived flakes up high. C'monnn winter....
Anyone ride the Skyliner 6? Did it break down or did they remember to grease up those bearings this time around?
Yes it seems to be running just fine

Coverage a little thin though. Hopefully todays precip will help
Brownies.....where's the nutaryuk
Have we started taking bets on when MHM opens MHX? If so, I’ll put ten on 2nd week of Jan.

I already put a bet down when I told my kid to not bother bringing his skis home on break
fuuuuuuk
What’s the cheapest IKON trip driveable from pdx that isn’t Bachy, Xtal or Alpy? [i got gifted a 4-pass so trying to think ahead to spring break] And likely to hold good snow come March 15 or so?
Go north to BC? South to Mammoth?
That's what I did when I lived in PDX. Stop at Palisades. 6 hrs from bend, then another 3.5-4. plenty of BLM land to the east to car camp if you're so inclined.Quote:

I was planning on driving up to Bend for the week between Christmas and New Year’s (from SF; tour at Shasta and Crater Lake on the way in/out; maybe bring bikes for high desert riding as backup). Getting second thoughts based on the existing conditions and forecast. Looks like it’s thin and warm out there, and next week might be mostly bringing wind/clouds with maybe some decent snow by the end of the week.
How do you local mags see next week’s conditions unfolding? Never skied Bachelor, so not sure how fun/miserable it gets there when windy/cloudy/early season conditions. Worth the drive or pivot plans?

Needs a lot more than forecasted to make it worth a drive like that, IMO. It’s thin.
