Who wants to hit up some snowbowl bc this weekend?
I'm probably out. I have some jacked up disc issue in my neck, the upper left 1/2 of my body is gimped out, and I'm all hopped up on goofballs.
Nothing to see back there...Actually its decent if you time your sun exposure right. The snowpack is really stabilizing, RB5 on Murphies today.

I had a superterriffic day at the bowl today, and am presently quite drunk, as there was a birthday party going on at The Last Run tonight, including a cavalcade of hotties that I could only watch, and enjoy, as they were engaging in acts of la-limbo, and furious, competitive, hoola hooping, which kept me engrossed for more than a little while, and all along, the beer saturated my all too willing host body. :wink:
Oh, and I am ready to envoke a tremendous huge storm to decend upon the Bowl, now that the fair weather skiers have used up their coupons. :wink:
Here's my personal superstitious activism; I eat a porridge out of my snow bowl. Ooh, there's a slick of honey at the bottom, yum. :smile:

Oh, and FOS skiss with a strap-on, I saw it Thursday. The thing was as big as a baby!
Good to hear things are progressing, snow-wise, at the bowl.
A couple years ago I came up with this, when we were hating their terrain maintenance. Good thing the road is wider and the snow is better!
My best runs of 2007 were at the Bowl in December.

Well played! "Terrain maintenance" is a term best used loosely at Sno Bol. :wink:
Looks like I'm going to swing through Missoula and ski SnowBowl Mon-Tues. Conditions seem pretty poor everywhere, so I might as well check out a spot I've never been to.
If anyone wants to show me around, shoot me a PM.

we were just at the yurt from monday to today. conditions were relatively stable and the weather was great. we schralped the entire area. without new snow, you'll have to work for fresh turns. you are in for a surprise though...completely new yurt.
Current TR pending photo upload. take a look at last year's trip here.

Today was easily the worst day of the year. After a week plus of thaw/refreeze going on, the clouds came out and left some helacious coral reef, chickenheads, and death cookies. However I took a few pics a couple days ago when it was all pretty and shit. The view from above the clouds:

I would say today was very, very bad indeed. I left before the sun though so it really sucked. At least the pizza made me feel better.
nice photos.
should be goodish sun.

LAME FUCKING REPORTS.
My neck is better, it can now resume snowing.
Went up to Lolo the last couple days. There's a lot of tracks up there at this point, but the snow was surprisingly good considering it hasn't snowed in a couple weeks, and untracked shots could still be found. Lots of boot-top deep turns to be had, and stability seems to be pretty good. There's a thick ice layer about 6-10" down that might be an issue once there's more weight on it.
