So you are saying I should take off Friday... fly Thurs night, ski Fri-Sun.... and fly back Sunday? Or should I stay away because I will bring rain?

**Zeedashbo** · 01-09-2006, 05:24 PM

funken, you're all good. you cursed nothing, it was my leg that cursed everything. now that my leg has been encrypted with massive kryptonite crushing amounts of anti-jinx, we have nothing to worry about.

If you do, then the nwac forecast for friday will come true, meaning we all loose. stay home

**rideit** · 01-09-2006, 06:38 PM

We should all be loose, as much as possible.
Especially the women.
And slots.
Not bindings.

Baker has been fantastic since Christmas. Mammoth did take the after Xmas news with 140 inches but Baker got around 90 spread out over 5 days. All of the super fun and gnar lines are now open. I jumped the 40-60' headwall of Canyon last week into chest high fluff. I can't imagine how its going to be tomorrow. And I'll take my "slop" any day of the week its served. Sure its not Alta but then again there is mo better terrain and of course 2x the snow.

the overexaggeration/jump claiming leads me to believe you are still in middle school. Or relatated to mtbakerskier...

**rideit** · 01-09-2006, 07:06 PM

I agree, slop can be super duper fun.
I'll take 5" of slop on a crusty base over 10" of 3% blower on the same base anyday.
It just had to be noted somehow...I am a spoiled pow clown, for sure!

I agree. What's the "headwall of the Canyon" anyways? For somebody who claims to ridden at Baker for 7 years, and doesn't know what Widowmaker is and apparently claims that Gunner's is 40-60' has spent too much time behind the bong in Glacier. The only 40-60 around there is retaining wall, but that's over on chair one side.

And I completely forgot that I have Monday off as well... seriously considering!

Whatcomridaz isn't in middle school. I believe he wanted to buy my Norco Team NS when I was selling it in the spring.

**BakerBoy** · 01-09-2006, 09:04 PM

I too, have Monday off. Looks like Stevens on Sat, and then cat skiing or Baker on Sun/Mon. With 24" in the last 24 hrs, Baker has finally made it over 100" base, which I don't think even happened last winter. Hooray!

naaah, gunnar's has got to be at least 60-100'. Maybe even more.

The part you've future-schooled down numerous times? Because the point at the top that you've sent it off must be at least 150', according to Deano.

Is that including or without the 100' of cartwheeling upon landing?

hey hop, stay away. we don't want you to jinx it. of course this still goes for funken as well.

**whatcomridaz** · 01-09-2006, 11:09 PM

gunners is nowhere near 40' more like 15' with a big base, headwall is first valley in as you come down blueberry, where you can pop the cornice on top of the wall or ride around. By the way the retaining wall is around 90' or at least thats what is was claimed at when Tex D hit it a few times. I haven't hit that yet but I have been eyeballing the chute just to skiiers right of it. Thursday may be the day.

Funkend, hey whatever happened to the Norco Team? I ended up picking up a Devinci Wilson with fox 40rc2's couldn't be happier Almost makes me wish for Whistler in the summertime If you still have it I may have a buddy who is interested.

Sold it and bought a Peeler (Cove that is). I'll be back in Whistler for the summer.

**whatcomridaz** · 01-09-2006, 11:45 PM

You riding at all this winter? If the weather doesn't hold up, I think we're hitting cypress on Sunday. Reaper-coiler-sexboy should be aight, but completely dependent on the pow

Actually rode on Saturday, but I am in Denver, CO all year except for the summer. Look for me at Whistler this summer though.
