YEP. was a sleeper day. wasn't expecting to have so many moments in the white room. cheers to 25 degree champaign

i like your ATDI sig. "10,000 cola-notes, wrapped in brown paper"

good shit


i would like permission to reproduce your pic for the purposes of my tgr avatar. let me know...

it was everything you daydreamed of, and more. ta-tas deep and just cold enough. it was well worth the wait for 6 to open.

also, the debris pile from monday's slide was sobering. Ran all the way...

incredibly fun day at baker today. would have been perfect if a ski patroller hadn't beat me to willows.!

not much, i'm sure. all i know is i'm thinking of getting some collapsable poles for when i'm post-holing low angle stuff. going up the steep shit isn't bad because i have my board as a great support...

despite the gnarly looking crown, it was fairly stable out on the arm. esp considering the other three or four bombs didn't trigger much more than some sluff. my roommate sam and i set the boot pack...

BWAHAHA. such afun day and tomorrow is going to be blower. see you all out there, hopefully dropping something big. i'm waring tan pants, black jacket, and the shit-eating grin

will likely...

not to mention it was the best snow i've experienced this whole season at baker (dry as a mofo)

yeah, i was talking with a skinner (skier wearing a lot of red iirc) up on top who was pissed the skin track was being packed out. i re-posted the boot pack along side it. i'm sure it didn't stop you...

hop,

I hope you were riding snow today. it vindicated the "crowded day at baker" experience of the weekend. if i had to guess, upwards of seven inches fell by the time we retired to white salmon....

cliff notes: i can die happy

there's nothing better than getting after it, mashing steep lines, and a few moments livin' in the white room.
the banked slalom brought magic today, as everything...

winter was BACK at baker today, boys and girls. snow broke just long enough in the afternoon for one hike out to pyramid on the arm. laying the boot pack sucked but it was well worth it :biggrin:
...

anybody riding baker tomorrow and driving from bellingham? i can pitch for gas.

is it just me or does cascade crud seem to forecast more snow than noaa? throughout december that seemed to be the case. i like CC for it's layout and ease with which you can get info on several...

it was a great day. didnt make it to gunner side of the mtn. just hiked the arm all day. a few choice lines for sure. it was hiked out like a damn sidewalk. i don't know why i'm continually surprised...

yah good call. i had my days confused. im flying back to seatac today. wish i wasn't missing it. good luck to anyone racing

anyone ride the locals qualifier at baker for the banked slalom? I would have except I was out of town this weekend.

lottery next year, here i come!

first few runs when 5 finally opened were epic but after that it was just mashed potatoes.

not a bad day to be working

today as well. huzzah

today was super duper fun!!1! (although crowded)


unreal how empty it was (yesterday) pretty good day although it was definitely unstable above ~4800ft in many areas (wind loaded esp) where the...

hop,

nice vids. were the opening lines from the first video from pyramid? thought I recognized the exposure on riders right when you were first dropping...

q4t

had an absolute blast on the the arm as well as around table mtn. tried to convince my riding partners to boot pack up herman with me but they weren't feeling it. (they have AT setups and i'm...

no need to sweat. it's gonna cool back off and we'lll have some sick lines into the weekend. from what i gather, the upside is that the rain will help bond/stabilize the snowpack for those of us...

amen to that, brother. i hope the upcoming cold, warm, cold b/w now and the weekend doesn't hurt the relatively stable snowpack we've been enjoying thus far
