Excellent easy riding at T-line yesterday.
well, I think the new quad will unload people hitting Heather and Star on busy days (like me). OTOH, it was heavy wet sugar today but the party was definitely good....
Anyone up Sunday?
It's snowing again ... who's going up in a week for closing/
Going up all weekend... but it looks like it probably baked out today inbounds.
hearing the conditions are crap - how's the hiking up high?
Sunday was kinda crap ... thinking I am going to focus on trying out the hike for turns thing. might hit Mazotfest the 23rd and check out the pond skim the 30th, though.
Meadows saying sun crust down low ... is it all pretty dead?
I'm wishing I weren't trapped at work ... no doubt I am missing a good few days.
My account was hacked. I didn't post that. However, I will be hitting Meadows this weekend.
Any confirmation of the weather up there? Weather seems to be calling for snow all day and a big dump tonight.
With a little grooming, you'd finally not have walk around people stopping in the middle of the rise from the bottom of the runout to get to the chair. Unfortunately it comes at the price of a lot of...
I'm going to shoot for a couple of those trips this spring, Patarero
OK .... who's ready to talk spring skiing ... anywhere off-piste folks recommend a newbie try hiking for some turns?
Looks as though the midweek warm blast will end the really, really good stuff for the year ... bring on the corn
surprisingly soft snow (and several inches of it) on the front bowls tonight at MHM .... should be good tomorrow early in all the usual places
Who's up Thursday/Friday?
Indeed ... the early laps were amazing ... elevator, all the short black runs off star, and the front bowls plus powder keg were great ... come out after lunch, not so much.
You doing Meadows this weekend or late next week? We'll be up.
I, too, would like this answered .... ?
A better point, to be sure, on all fronts.
I can only wonder how Heather would reopen this year ... doesn't really seem possible with that mass where it is. And here I was hoping they'd groom the runout last time I ran it.
For those new to the area ... which website?
Today was one of those days I was jealous of all the freeskiers.
We need to get this back on track - it looks like some of the weekend's snow is coming out of the forecast, but I am going to hit upper Heather in the morning
Friday night and Saturday morning actually might be nice.
Man I wish I could go today
Yesterday and this morning were simply off the hook. I haven't been up here in the NW long but I can't recall a day anything like those. Took a buddy into Heather for his first time and all I can...
I'll be up there in a blue jacket and some Volkl Mantras
Glad your son had a great one ... might sneak out Wednesday for night skiing.
going up Thurs - Sun, thinking about Wednesday ... anyone else?
this evening was very nice on the face and 3,4 bowl
Who is going up this weekend? I am up there either Friday night or Saturday morning.
US Outdoor can barely be bothered to answer their phone, much less answer detailed questions about gear, or their inventory. It is what it is.
Who's hitting Meadows this weekend?
Excellent points about the gated access ... I have to wonder if a lot of those struggling visitors to Heather consider an open gate to call for any different attitude or perception than riding off...
I have to agree. Some of it's the new equipment, and I think some of it's just increasing numbers of people in the same ski areas looking for more open terrain, and following their friends doing the...
we sure could use an advance on that February snow
Amazing!
PLEASE let that fresh for late Saturday in the forecast for Meadows come through
I sure plan to hit that ON3P factory with some coffee for everyone soon ... would love to try some out.
Looks like spring skiing this weekend ... in January.
Looks junked through the weekend. Just not good.
Does anyone know of a super thin rain cover I can stick in a pocket of a shell? Might come in handy for me this weekend.
Count me as one hoping like hell NOAA is right and everyone else is wrong on this one. Skeptical, but really hopeful.
going to be there all weekend - and sure hope the fresh shows up as predicted, it needs it
sweet pic
Duker - I have never skied either T-Line or Ski Bowl ... so we may be able to trade a bit
It's gotten so bad I am thinking of a couple midweek trips - say Tues-Thurs - this month after it dumps again. Although I am glad a lot of people bought lift tickets and funded Meadows, Ski Bowl and...
Anyone know what made 26 such a shit show today? this is 2 weekends in a row of the long jog through Hood River....
This.
It's only about 15 miles or so of fairly treacherous stuff ... the risk/reward is very poor, and not to mention what you are doing to others on the road. Bad vibe.
