come on bro, you know all the real INW bc skiers ski 'da schweitzer sidecountry! :rolleyes2 :fmicon:
there were 3 cars park on the northside of the bridge this morning at lookout and a skinner to the top! seems like a rarity that I don't get the pleasure of breakin' trail.
sent ya a PM with my number so maybe we can link up in ddaaaa future for a tour or resort shred.
Wait you guys r making fun of the fact that we are a little backwater mountain zone?....just the way we like it.. Oh and thanks for the report, how were the turns?
Mainly, we were referencing a little inside joke about the effectiveness of the panhandle avy center since they cover a HUGE area and only update once a week, but I do VERY MUCH APPRECIATE the work those guys do and know the limits of their resources. Turns were alright, snow was pretty wind affected, kinda like skiing whipped cream cheese. but still a whole lotta fun!!!
this years igloo is just past the bc gate at the top of ridge run at schweitzer. looks like it won't be burried anytime soon so take your kids out there for a visit. go through the gate then down and to the left, its maybe 100 feet out of bounds

FIRST your grammar is horrible, that sentence doesn't merit a comma. :the_finge Crap :eek:
SECOND, you were right. it doesn't mater how you put on your boots. I will continue to put them on in ski mode though. :yourock:
THIRD, the reason your boots have slop is because you ski in the back seat. :the_finge
anymore questions?
Audiobooks don't pronounce punctuation well. It was either that or 3 dots...
And I will continue to hike in ski mode and ski with skins on.
[QUOTE=BRUTAH;4169259]THIRD, the reason your boots have slop is because you ski in the back seat. :the_finge
Back seat is still a seat.
Why aren't you skiing powder right now?
Ps: good job in Montana! Well, besides not summiting anything...
Anybody ski Schweitzer today? Still goods left for tomorrow? Ski free Friday is always a cluster...
Yes. Yes. And..........yes.
Feel a little bad saying a day in 7" over boilerplate was good, but it really wasn't bad anywhere and I laid first tracks in several obvious stashes after noon, so considering the way the year has gone I'll take it. Wind was starting up in the afternoon, so probably fresh drifts/more freshies out of the trees for tomorrow. But yeah, it's going to be a mess. Maybe there's some sidecountry?
49 tomorrow, anyone?
I 2nd Jono's reply. It was good...not awesome. The hard base seemed more noticeable in front, but the back was pretty good. I took 1 run off Stella to get back to 6, and even it was better than I would have thought. I didn't make it over to the Triple.
Thanks for the reminder about Free Friday...I had completely forgotten about it! I had planned to hit it again tomorrow, and your post saved me the aggravation. I'll skip it and keep up with the Kardashians instead. Leftovers on Sunday and next week should be alright...
last three days have been good. hope you've gotten some, snow is still soft, light n fluffy
