Summer is coming

still better than living in ontario......we had a 4 day trip to Eldordo booked over the weekend, the warming shitfucked everything, we drank a lot of scotch and beer and the only good skiing was a small rock to launch off behind the cabin....at least the sunsets were good and it was nice being away from society for a few days.

Don't chirp ontario... We are having an all time season. More snowfall YTD here than in lake tahoe. BC here is better as well.

So what type of summer wax do you guys use to put the skis away into storage?

Anybody got some recent Beta on the Coquihalla area? Are things equally as bad/terrible up there?

Wouldn't mind checking it out this weekend.

Potential return of normal zonal flow next week? Get your skis shined up, grab a stick of juicy fruit.

Just kidding, bike weather.

I'm doing trail work on trails that are normally under snow so normally don't get shit kicked during winter.

Getting a head start on trailwork is never bad

yeah, thin cover in function over by the Rev jumps on my lunch walk....lower tunnel vision is almost bare too in the forest, although the trail surface is packed snow/ice unfortunately....
