    And agreed, showing up is an important factor for success.

    Snow was lighter density today, more like a nice whipped cream. Had to deal with the rime up top. That's the deal when you sign up to ski at Bachelor.

    This. Also west bowls were heroic with zero lines on the slow ass lift after about 12:30.

    I'm thinking this is the storm that provides enough concrete mix to build the snow bridges to access canyons... hopefully

    Got up for an afternoon ski at Meadows with a buddy. Left the greater PDX metroplex at 10-ish and MHM showed all lots open. Get up there and stuck in purgatory our in Twilight. Despite stuffed lots, the hill skied pretty good. Plenty of spots that were set up from teh brief moments of sun, though stashes and cream to be found. The upside was that as of yesterday, I equalled last year's number of ski days...

    Skiing is pretty great and yesterday reminded me of that. I missed it. Although, the hour it took from Twilight Lot to Silent Rock wasn't so awesome. So it goes, I guess.

    I hope you Bachelor Mags are out getting it today. I'm tryig to head over tonight and cash in before the freezing levels peace the fuck out for a few days.

    Sweet man. Congrats on getting back into the action. (Assume this break was an injury?) Enjoy Bachelor.

    It was exceptional skiing at the B. Sucker hole prevalent over CC & Sunrise. Boot top depth with some density. Cut up by 1130. That is alll.

    Actually, no. Stoke levels got too low and only made it out Christmas time last year. I think I never adjusted to realities of skiing (and driving) for PNW skiing after two decades in Montana. And it got to me last year. Also, lots of motorcycles.

    No matter, stoke levels are quite quite high. Tomorrow morning should be good at Bachytrons. And targeting an MLK long weekend in Mammoth with some SoCal Mags.

    Think snow and FKNA!!

    Hhmmmm, that didn't work. First time I tried editing on the phone tho
    The pics are sideways on my phone, but correct on the PC
    Every time I post on my phone I get the 45 second timeout between posts message, everytime. I close the page and open it up, it's posted. Works fine on the PC

    Meadows reports backup power this morning with gusts over 90mph

    Yesterday MEX ran slow for about 10 minutes. The lift hostess said people were having a hard time getting on the chair. I asked someone else as we got closer to loading, and the chair finally went full speed again, he said it was for ramp work. This is the 4th time I've seen MEX run slow for extended periods, over 1-2 minutes. I hope this isn't SOP.

    If we pulled this shit back in the olden days, we got an ass chewing. Don't kids know how to shovel in-between chairs?!

    Mt Brokenchair... lulz. Accurate.

    Bachelor yesterday was good time; just about worth the drive. Ripping laps on Red and CCX before the Freezing Level took too many bong rips that it got it got too high and left the mountain altogether.

    Doubling my days over last was another bonus and getting a pow day of knee-deep cream was pretty great. Bummer about OBX and NWX not even getting a sniff to open. I was hoping to catch a few runs over there before the too-warm liquid precip descended. Oh well. Stoke remains high while we wait out this warm patch.



    Unrelated; how TF do you post a picture through a third party these days? the [img] don't seem to work.
