Just finished watching that after I noticed they added it. Been a few years. Forgot how good it really is.

Well probably hit up Robertos Friday happy-hourish when we get into town.
BBQ @ Mountain Shadows Saturday.

Added a roll call.

Looks like we will be in Mtn Shadows party central @ asandygals studio. Hopefully the baby monitor reaches out to the hot tub and bbqs.

divegirl and I will be at Alpine tomorrow and Kirkwood Sunday for the closing day. Will have baby in tow so will be trading off watch duties. Would be good to ski with some mags if any are around.

It has been called. Cinco de Mini works for us.
We'll be there hopefully Friday through Sunday with the mini-magette and her ton of baby stuff in tow.
Will be looking for some BAF hookups.

Oops. This is divegirl. Legoskier logged in on my phone so accidentally posted as him.

May 3,4,5. Consider it. We are definitely going this year, baby and all. I cannot wait! But weekends are filling up fast so let's decide on a date. I can delete this thread once that's decided.

Had a good couple of days at China peak. Saw all the racer kids ripping it up. As usual all of the advanced terrain was untouched. Lots of boulder hopping fun.

OK so I have some experience in this area actually having started a somewhat similar business back in the day. First some background:
In 1999 I joined with a couple of other people to start a .com...

Interesting stuff. Similar to Sebastiao saldago. That guys work is incredible.

Want to get back into this as well now that we have the baby. I have a couple pairs of old Fischer classic skis with the ancient Solomon bindings on them and I have a pair of SNS Profil boots I...

Have parked there a number of times early season for touring before Sherwood opened. My understanding is it is all right with the HOA until the lift opens.

Don't know if this has been mentioned already but Nordwand is up on Netflix Instant. I just watched it and it is pretty much the best mountaineering flick ever. About the groundbreaking...

I know Skeggs gets all the play on the peninsula but there are tons of other places to ride that are great.
If you only have an hour or so to kill on a ride check out the smaller local options....

FWIW, the oak trees around my place pedict an average winter. Since I've lived here (past 3 winters) they've been right. Last fall had pretty much no acorns = drought year. Year before that had...

Shit, maybe. We actually have an older 2000 civic now but need to get a newer small 4-door (like another Civic). What the info on it?

Details can be found in this CL add http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/cto/3189122461.html

PM me if interested.

In case you haven't heard, Cohee has started running a small bike park at China Peak down in the certral Sierra (http://www.skichinapeak.com/biking.aspx). I had a chance to ride there this past...

Pretty much every Laguna Seca Daze festival. Especially 1993. Was going to ucsc at the time and all my friends went but I always spent every moment in late May BC skiing in the Sierra so never went.

Fled to Mt bachelor pissed rain all yesterday while touring at crater lake. Snow pack is ugly but at least there is a pack. Saving grace is staying at McMenamins st Francis school. Will be drinking...

Anybody else going to the Adventure film fest Sat? divegirl, me, and sister of lego will be there. May be pulling rock (or possibly ice?) in Emerald Bay during the day. Heavenly WROD again Sunday. Or...

Here! I just bought two tix for 9:30.

Day 9

That’s it for the skiing. The next day was touristy driving down around Lake Geneva to our hotel in Geneva before flying out the next day.
We saw some cool Medieval Churches and Castles...

Day 8

Saas Fee time! I have always heard good things about this place. It did prove to be true. Although the conditions were pretty hard pack we still found some fun stuff.
...

Day 7

Off to Zermatt. This is probably the most expensive single day of skiing I have ever done but I had to do it at least once.

Obligatory Matterhorn porn
...

Day 6

One more sunrise in Cham. We were leaving to head into Switzerland for the second part of our trip.
...

Day 4 & 5

I am combining these two days because on day 4 we did the tourist thing again with a trip up the Agui Du Midi. I have to be honest here, with the marginal conditions we were...

Day 3

The next day we drove through the tunnel to Courmayeur in Italy. I have to say this is one of the coolest ski towns ever. Chill vibe, great touring potential, and awesome food.

Touring...

Day 2

Time to go skiing. At the Grand Montets no less! Fuck yeah!

Woke up to a great sunrise from our balcony
...

Last January my sister (who gets sent all over the world for work) came back from a trip to Geneva and while there she had taken a couple of days to go to Chamonix and came back with great pics and...

Alpine was excellent on the 4th.
Anyone else see the bear wandering around mid mountain? Poor guy was wondering wtf all these strange things were sliding through his house. That or he was wondering...

Hooray for another maggot marriage!!! Congrats you two!
--divegirl (& Lego)

Voted. Now you need to post some mixes from the porn sounds I gave you a while ago.

Please go forth and ride the Goat Trail at Fort Ord next time. Park at the Toro Creek Rd. parking area off 68. Ride up Guidotti Rd. to Laguna Seca. Do a loop on 47 & 48 to Skyline Rd. to 44 to 41...

On the calendar for me already (seeing as I need to be around for work the first two weekends in June).

divegirl and I will be there along with asandygal, et.al.
Will be BC around Virginia Lakes Sat, resort Sunday, either resort or BC around Tioga/Sonora Monday.

If anybody has a couple of BAFs for...

Sadly no divegirl and I for this. Just too far to drive for a short weekend and no Tioga or Sonora open and we used up all days off for the Alps. We will be there over Memorial day though with...

Divegirl and I may be around those parts tomorrow as well. We'll look for you too.


EDIT: Packed up the truck, went to start it and nothing! I think my starter motor picked a most inopportune...

Divegirl and I will be there. Hopefully we will get an actual spring this year.

A couple of divegirl on Stevens Pk on Saturday. Snow was very variable. Anything south/east was crap crust while 5 ft away on a slightly north aspect of the descent gully it was excellent windblown...

We actually didn't buy a Kirkwood (or any) pass this year as we realized we were kind of getting burned out on going to the same place all the time (probably will end up being a bad decision but oh...

Nice! Divegirl and I hope to make it (although we may be too drunk from the Squaw Octoberfest to get there in time).

Crap, haven't checked TGR in too long. Divegirl and I are in.
Sinecure, PM sent to you to see if you have any more carpool room.

Labor day would be good, although if we get a dusting this Sunday morning some pictures of that would be a good way to start out a new thread.

Goes to show that exercise is never a bad idea (and that she is a bad ass).

OK, I finally got my bike fixed (thank you Passion Trail Bikes!) and the days are long so I need to get out and ride.

Will be riding tomorrow (Sunday) morning starting at 9am

Also looking to...

So how much snow is at Sonora?
My work is in the middle of moving locations across the bay so I might not get up there until the weekend of the 19th and 20th. Will shit still be good?

I sort of ignored this thread because I was thinking "yet another AK TR" but this was truly sick. Perhaps the best POV I have ever seen posted here.
