I’m waiting to see snowblades debut or Interloper rocking the SL carvers on 2 feet pow before I start waxing my skis… but I did check out the snowpack yesterday and I’m happy to report it feels...

So that’s what MSH looked like before it blew up… what a gem indeed.
A pic below was taken a month ago from the same northern aspect while hiking toward Harry’s ridge… a long hike now after Hwy 504...

For contrast - last summer view of Mississippi head

yeah the winter came back for a day and I couldn’t resist either… such a treat when clouds blanket the valley below.

I'm thinking if the current forecast holds up, temperature dropping to 30 to 40F range with the wind picking up a bit to ~20, then the skiing conditions will improve dramatically... fast hardpack...

Yeah but red bull and viagra... duuuuude

DK is getting deep

493307

Definitely better condition than the same time a few years back.

Not mine but a good boarder's track deserves a post... Good snow today btw.

^^ Pfft amateur, here, hold my beer, ima show ya my signature double flip nut grab :fmicon:

It was windy even on the HRM side, and the snow never came just the wind... skiing would have been marginal at best even if MHX ran. And crikey it took me 2 hours to get up to star and a good...

wut, we still skiing? .... good thing I got back just in time :)

They just need the pass holder's name, email or ph #, and the voucher number to exchange for the daily tix. I couldn't locate my voucher number and had to call... easy process. Thanks.

I have two Buddy lift tickets left on my Sahale pass and I want to give them away. Do I need to be there with them or is there a way for them to use without me accompanying them? I figure I'd post...

We can only speculate but at the end the money talks and everything has a price… I still speculate that the net effect of Meadows becoming either Ikon or Epic will be positive for those of us buying...

So wait a sec, he is a mag with a private ski resort and he makes awesome skis... I think we've been duped. He is not a bad guy and N-Korea isn't as bad as the American propaganda machines want you...

No offence to interloper and TBS alike :D

I’m thinking if Meadows becomes a part of Ikon or Epic, more locals will visit other Epic/Ikon resorts (like Bachelor) than vice versa... like Alppys visiting Bach. It could be a win-win situation.

And he makes and sells some solid skis right here in Portland Orygun!

Considering the Pope uses Bidet and his altar boys use only the finest Treccia bath towel to dry his loyal hiney, I better leave a little earlier than usual… thanks again for such invaluable info......

Thanks... somewhat rhetorical q. - I'll be driving from Portland and if I roll into the parking lot say ~10 on Sunday morning, would there be a parking spce still?

With recent snow and fair weather predicted, I’m thinking Sunday to Monday. Is parking reservation still required on Sunday? Also how is Silverking skiing? Is it a go with the recent snow? Thanks in...

If Meadows becomes either an Epic local resort like Stevens or a part of Ikon, I could save about $1000. Not that it will ever happen but is that something to wish for? I don’t think Bachelor has...

It was sticky from the getgo at Meadows today, more so at higher elevation.
And a sign of snow coming in ? 492828

Went up to MSH seeking solitude and what’s this? Party at the summit… and yes it was indeed a glorious day, minus a tragedy. I heard someone got too close to the edge and the cornice broke off and...

Yep, you gotta luv Cascade pow-dough … so much fun when it’s fresh track. I had a blast the past couple days… pretty much untracked runs until 12:30 today, until my gloves soaked through... gotta try...

Hmm, sounds like Mammoth is more comparable to Big Sky than Bach… guess I’ll have to find out for myself.

Thanks.

Aww so cute! TBS's granddaughter?

How does Mammoth compared to Bach?
I've never been but considering it before the season ends... opinions vary from what I read.

Is that the 1929 SL?

Dibs!

Bachelor is about to get invaded once again… I see TBS jumping with joy in anticipation!

I’m not a part of...

Can’t speak for others but high altitude math confuses me… This has worked for me though - go straight really fast and when something gets in the way, turn! You are welcome :)

swell...

Yep I see that - Meadows website indicating they will not open Heather and private reserve on Monday. And HRM and Star express are still down. Hmm, what’s going on? Don’t they have diesel backup on...

No kidding... I hope they get power back and resolve whatever maintenance issues with SSX by tomorrow. I expect nothing less than knee deep powduh and countury club skiing.

March 1, 2019, I lost my buddy to the same fate in the same place. His son and I were skiing ahead of him down sparks lake run… The conventional wisdom says ski with a buddy and keep him in sight at...

Good talking to you fellows. I'm gonna log off. I think vicotin and whiskey to kill my pain is affecting me a little.....

Daaaannng... that look so flowy surfing the mountaing.

TBS’s comment was a little tiny-bit misplaced and but sex is never dirty, whatever tickles your fancy I say. Besides I’m getting tarred of all these political correctness and censorship that goes...

What, interloper's SL?

^^ What Bachelor lacks in puckered drops and steeps and bro bra I shat my pants cliffs and don’t fall and you die traverses, it has that natural flowy terrain and long ass glades and nicely spaced...

What? Interloper's SL?

What I've found if you take about 10-minute walk to the top and drop in to the NW side, there are plenty pockets of fresh tracks to be had... but yeah, it does get cut up faster than you can say...

My damaged sciatica nerves that I’ve been ignoring for the past couple months finally caught up to me and the day I take off to rest the upper canyon pops …and I’ve been biding my time all during...

Looks like Cascade will spin tomorrow and it looks phat… go get some fellows.489462

Yeah but the skiers are much better looking on Hood!489320

I know what you meant... I just wish we have what you guys have over there.

Only up to moon gate.

Snow was light and so good... the best quality so far this season.

yeah, the grass is always greener on the other side... until you get to the other side.
