Kick-Ass!
It was a link, (posted by Baker Boy I think, on SnowJournal), of some kick-ass, deep snow pictures, from Canada, right at the beginning of that season.
Then I saw a posting by Kellie about a Bay Area fund raiser for Sierra Avalanche Center, and I realized there were a lot of peeps from around my parts posting here. Well way more than on SJ.
Then I got such a great welcome from OGRE & Punani that I decided to stick around.
Oh...
That's why!

Interesting thread, don't remember seeing it the first time around.
I think I found this place in 2003 or 2004 after lurking on Mammoth Mtn forums. I think Tuffy and Punani visited the Mammoth Mtn forums acting all tough and I thought it was funny that people got so upset by their antics. Heard about this place from Bullet or YogaChick and decided to give it a look. "Wasted" way to many hours here.Education must be the answer, we've tried ignorance and it doesn't work!

Started in tech talk and gear swap. Got hooked reading the witty snarky posts in the chatter ski forum.
Got taught a few lessons and learned some humility once I waded into the adult pool. I never fought on the internet before, but it was fun. And a great way to kill time as a cubicle dweller.
When I was forced to live on the ice coast, met and skied with a bunch of maggots that were kind enough to show me the local ways. Quite the opposite from Jackson where no one admitted to maggotry even though the Wildernest building was it’s home.
These days life is busy and I enjoy the conditions reports and the stoke but the hilarity seems to have moved on. Maybe it’s having kids or not working as a cubicle slave. Not sure why the best and brightest have moved on as well, but damn this place was an entertaining shitshow dumpster fire.. . .

Cuz banned from every respectable board.
Truth.....lurked for 8 years before I came out of the closet. Damn, that didn't sound right. Bought my first set of moments even though some dude kept sayin Praxis RX. This place has more 411 than any place on the planet and I've spit coffee on my keyboard more than once. Only get a few weeks a year and always the first week of March in Brighton/Soli. Steady looking for someone needing change for a nickle. Ex Wife has opened up the ski dates considerably.Last edited by beachbumnc; 12-23-2019 at 04:03 PM.

Was on powmag forums, started a thread about heating my truck/living in it for the winter, blew the tranny in week one, depleted all savings to fix, the maggots collective sent me on a season long adventure ending at the first Maggot Summit (or whatever you call them now) in Utah. Naturally migrated to TGR once powmag ended.

For the community and the stoke. Everyone loves deep powder but can’t agree on which skis to use. But that’s secondary cause we are all stoked on the deep powder.
Sent from my iPhone using TGR ForumsI need to go to Utah.
Utah?
Yeah, Utah. It's wedged in between Wyoming and Nevada. You've seen pictures of it, right?
So after 15 years we finally made it to Utah.....
Thanks BCSAR and POWMOW Ski Patrol for rescues

Been lurking for a minute and it doesnt feel right to take so much without giving a little something back.
