I wouldn't hold your breath. The weather gods have already kicked in all of our teeth anyway, now they're moving in for the skull fuck.

But hey, it's only November 8th. ;-)

Yup. Anything more than three days out is a Hail Mary. Less than three and it is just hopeful. Count them chickens when they hatch.

I'm not complaining though. November turns made off the ridge line are always welcome even if I encountered a few hundred rocks on the way back to the car.

We were not quite so daring. stuck with the grass on the lower slopes. good to be back out on snow though.

Truckee Ski Swap at the Rec Center today. 11am-4pm.

I feel like I scored pretty good at the swap this year: 4 pairs of kiddo skis and a full entry-level skate ski kit for my wife. Followed that with jaliscos and a few hrs at the bike park; all with my stoked 9 yr old. A good truckee day.

I'm looking for some shorter 170ish twin tip skis mtned tele. Any leads? Nothing at sports exchange. My budget is small.

Cheers

I've got a pair of skis that my wife has used for the past few years. I handed them down to her after i was done bashing them. 175 pocket rockets. 2 mounts in decent shape. 50 bucks sound good? Send me a PM if interested

[WestCoastPDR]

Hopefully we will be able to ski this in the near future. Yea yea. More bike stuff but hey I didn't feel like driving to boreal or Rose.

Rode N* on Sunday. Only had to cross one snow bank of manmade snow. Great riding conditions, no crowds. If it wasn't for the fact that its Nov I would be stoked. They really should move the sprinkler lines out of the way so we can enjoy our turns though. All the new wood ramps are fun.

Ski porn this week is the last of it. Warren Miller is playing around the bay and Alpenglow has a show at Olympic valley lodge about yur-o skiing on Thursday. After that, the only porn left will be 16 days out on the GFS:



This one is progged for the week I'm going to Arcata so confidence is high.

Nuthon and team already slayed the buckboard line. I had to look elsewhere.





The Round Top and Her Sisters.




Dropping. I only needed to traverse 18 times to avoid the thin spots.

Fingers crossed that the models continue to hold. It could get interesting.

Nice! Looks like Monte Wolfe could be good by Friday.

Thinking about camping the hot springs Thursday and Friday nights next weekend and hitting Heavenly and Kirkwood opening days. Any one interested? It shouldn't be horrific to camp and one of the last early winter weekends that isn't going to be "winter camping". Plus there are hot springs.
