Cascadia/WA Pow Farming ‘23/‘24

I feel like calling it game time! I can’t remember all the qualifiers for a thread launch, but today I skied a couple of completely enjoyable laps on seasonal snow, nowhere near a glacier, from the car with a reasonable amount of work. I laughed. It hit me in the face. A good day out, and a welcome start to my favorite season. Attachment 476739Attachment 476740Attachment 476741

Shoulda brought the 132’s- plenty deep.

If anyone has substantial objections I am happy to discuss it. However, I believe an optimistic outlook is appreciated by the various gods/goddesses of winter.

I’m going to chill by the fire now but will return to install various weather and conditions links if that’s appropriate…

I have to do it on a desktop but you can hit the "quote plus" button in the lower right of any single post on any thread and then insert it into your post in advanced editor mode, like so:

Giddyup!

Stoked for you guys!

Noticed some tracks above the hairpin on HWY 20 this afternoon, looked a little thin yet but I was jealous [emoji106]

Let's go!!! Thanks for kicking this thing off, riff.

I made my first turns of the year on Saturday and exceeded my expectations. It was the hottest pow I've ridden in November but it was still riding.

It's on boys and girls!!!

Bam! Subscribed...so ready to get my own turns in.

Hi2 is selling tickets for Friday the first. Unless someone pulls out the WROD. They might be first.

Vail corp probably has that on auto setting and doesn't realize they're selling tickets.

Sounds like Mission is shooting for a Saturday ribbon. Saw on their site a black Friday deal, Nov 25-Dec 25 for $179, that's a killer deal. Sorry in advance east siders for the west side invasion.

shameless crosspost from gearswap. Selling my old Legend Pros and Id really like them to sell locally.

That barn door was left wide open long ago. Even YouTube evidence won’t convince anyone that their ski bases are not at risk however.

I'll stick to my home zone and posting only during the sweet spot when I'm caffeinated before I'm tired.

Nah I'm pretty sure thats Mt Daniel. I was wondering how far of a walk you'd need to get that kind of coverage. Solid work.

Also I cheated and read the NWAC observations this morning :fmicon:

In other news, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for some base building.

Attachment 477751

Yeah, don't look at the extended forecast into next week. There are some terms mentioned that shall remain unsaid here.

Just don't look past Sun morning. Hoping this w/e isn't just a teaser, that base is going to struggle w 2"+ of liquid through Tues.
