Who's up for some OB stash-hittin' now that boundaries are open?

**slim** · 01-14-2005, 03:03 PM

Me and the Mrs. are defininitely in. Anybody interested in hiking further out?

**skimoore** · 01-14-2005, 03:07 PM

me! me! I'll see you guys 10 at 10. (SuPu this is Jordan from a couple weeks ago). I'm looking forward to lots of hiking to escape the crowds.

**Tyrone Shoelaces** · 01-14-2005, 03:25 PM

Please, someone hit this double-stage line for me. Just be sure to carry enough speed off the bottom air to clear the flat traverses from people coming back from WS.

oh yeah!

**Ubersheist** · 01-14-2005, 03:26 PM

I'll be there tomorrow, possibly Sunday. DG should be there both days. Anyone want to go in on a hotel room I have? PM me before I leave the office ~4:30PST today!

True that. Right now the warning is “Low” but that doesn’t mean “Zero” especially when you’re skiing potentially wind loaded steeps with convex roll-overs halfway down.

Thats gettin done when the knee is healed, wanted to do it last year but I didn't have red pants at the time.

**skier666** · 01-14-2005, 04:11 PM

....I'll check it out....proper

I'm thinking the line between that area and West shore....the line I did last season that nobody else did

Definitely not going out there unless there are tracks....

In all honesty, a few first tracks don't mean shit for stability. If you're worried, we should dig a pit.

i am still unsure of what line you took when you came out the bottom. can you see it in the above pic? can you draw a nice red line like shoe?

You're not kidding. I remember how spooked I was by the exposure of that ice-flow/rot snow line last year.

**bcrider** · 01-14-2005, 04:18 PM

a little bird told me where you were headed.

..and ride into the road?

**skier666** · 01-14-2005, 04:21 PM

Sorry Slim...I meant that if

step#1) its trackless, I don't go out regardless.....

step #2) a pit yes....

....at least the temps are warming up to stabilize the pack, but after seeing all these horrific crowns in Utah, I'll be playing on the safe side.

BCrider....I'm in SF today.

I think the snow will be plenty stable to go even if no one has headed out... we should just talk to patrol, look at what the wind has been loading, and dig a pit. It should be $$$ out there.
