We don't have any kids yet but I'll buy it from you in 2-3 years when you're done with it!

Good luck

The cheapest / best thing we used in the Army was a combo of neon yellow reflective PT vests ($6 ish I think) and a few foldable blaze orange panels that we'd pop open for birds to see from the air...

Panty raid?

would love to jump on these if they're still for sale.

Plus 1 for mushers secret. I forgot it one time and my pup's pads were toast.

Mmmmm and after a year with no posting I gotta respond to a troll.

But excellent trolling sir. Bravo

Great point.

I love the anti Bay Area sentiment on this board. Without the metropolis most of truckee and the resorts around it wouldn't exist. I've met lots of yuppies who were ninjas in a previous life before...

I had the same thing this time last year and didn't miss a day of skiing. Just do your PT and you'll be great!




I hope I'm wrong, but i dont think theyd open something secretly. There are...

Man we need some good news around here...the only activity that keeps me from being bummed out is now seriously bumming me out.

Crazy squaw winds = awesome wind loaded terrain all day on Sunday. Hopefully the trend continues for you sir.

I'm desperately trying to convince the 1 plankers I ride with to make the switch. Congrats!

I'm interested but have to unload, or trade, my pure 138's

Conversation last weekend with girlfriend learning to ski:

GF: Ok, so I need to bring what in my pockets? I've got Chapstick, Water, sunglasses, goggle lens & case, wallet, keys, cell phone,...

I'd much rather tip a helpful instructor than the burrito lady for making me my to-go burrito in her burrito shop. Or the Starbucks barista for pouring my drip coffee. Or the salad bar checkout...

Powdork - I love how said random guy just throws a front flip. Kudos to him.

This is my girlfriend's first year of skiing and she's starting to wonder why no one's getting into it.

JimS - the fun police at work disabled the graphic or video or whatever's in the box. Looking forward to seeing it later if it's not broken?

Thanks for the woods tip. bumpity to page 1.

don't feel like starting a new thread on this unless I have to, but:

What's the most eco friendly way to dispose of wood ashes from fireplaces around the lake? Assume they've been stored 6 days...

Also thanks for raising a post from the dead. I was having a bummer day at work until I read a 6 year old "JONG!" in 36pt font.

The plates I've seen are designed to stop 7.62mm. After going through a windshield I bet they would've stopped the slugs even if they were sabots. Are plates like that really practical for a park...

lol. Call me skeptical of any 5 month forecasts. I think I'm going to start wagering people about "the season being over" and see if they're still convinced / use the proceeds to buy some JJs.

As much as this stinks we still have a lot of season left to go. Anyone else sick of people who know a guy who "knows what he's talking about" saying the season is donezo?

Whenever I drink Coors Diesel instead of Mickey's I always giggle at the thought of US Presidents giving that stuff away as some kind of unique gift.

I wish I owned a house in Tahoe Donner...

This is seriously screwing up my mental health. I saved EVERY vacation day I had for work hoping to use them in December. Looks like i'm gonna lose almost all of 'em. Frown.

North Lake tahoe is still too broad of a category, but I'm in Tahoe Donner (north of Truckee) and the internet is legit fast. I'll have to do a speed test when I get up there to quantify it but...

Tahoe is such a letdown so far that I've been just logging time with the girlfriend. "Sure hon, the aquarium this weekend sounds great!" kill me.

1 vs. 3 aside, I've seen firsthand how much better it is when things are standard and interchangeable. Minus the labelling problem it's nice to know you can pick up someone else's stuff and...

Ka-ching. Now I just need snow to test it.

This replaces my beacon, right?

Yay tapatalk!

To those of you looking for a ski lease, where were you last month when I was pulling my hair out trying to fill 2-3 spots with cool non-serial killers?

They forgot "boilerplate", "Bulletproof", or "Tahoe last January"

Edit and reply - we're full, thanks. I knew I could count on mags to wait until the last minute....

Glad I didn't have to use Grindr.

A memo came out about 2 years ago. Every snow condition must now contain the word "powder." I'll check the squaw website and see if they still have their copy posted.

I'm about to have an aneurysm from laughing so hard at work. I can't believe they named the womens's JJs that. Pure fucking genius.

I hear Waziristan is nice this time of year.



lol. Just add skier.

Troll?

Edited: Trolltown, USA

Email sent. And pardon the formatting - the fun police don't let us use regular email at work so I had to do it on an idevice

Really bummed I can't be there tonight. If any mags find themselves running from the 5-0 head towards Van Ness and Bay and yell "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE A PRO" towards the cops. I'll come down and...

That post made me smile - I think it'd be a nice change of pace to have an inherently optimistic creature in the car during a shutdown.

Great points. It's probably a better idea to revisit in the summer when I'm not already committed to a lease, even if it is pet friendly.

Tahoermk: I couldn't disagree with you more re: city...

Anyone have a dog and do the commute from the city? I'm seriously considering getting one but am trying to see if it'd be fair with skiing on the weekends.

What do you do with your dog when you...

just to clarify, the lease is in the Truckee area

It takes a LOT for the blast to break your windshield, especially considering how strong they are. Little rocks, on the other hand...

Anyway you were probably right/safe. The foreman was just...

potentially - Sending a pm with my email now. The only issue is how f'ing expensive electricity is in Truckee.

wait huh? The air quality in SLC sucks. It's like little Beijing.

Welcome to California bro!

Thanks to those who have responded so far! We have a few more deciding but mags get first preference.

Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet up last year after Avy 1. Pumped about one for the road and now just have to figure out which time. Palace of Fine Arts = moving up in the world...

edit: Did...

Squaw or alpine sat,sun and holidays and the occasional random weekday.
