Great mental health day at MHM. Ran over a stump on Mercury but not much else. Coverage was good in the bowls, surprisingly light snow. And the the sun, my god the sun

Right TBS? It's like little foot bindles of blow.
Anyone around this weekend stop by the Snoplanks Winter Showcase at Skjersaas Saturday 3-8. $3 pints from Boneyard and BBC, Bends best outdoor companies, COAA, and raffle.
Sunday looks like it will be real nice, too.Let me lock in the system at Warp 2
Push it on into systematic overdrive
You know what to do

I I hit up Timberline for a morning-jog... Ridiculous at sunrise:
Amazing snow-quality at meadows today!! I wasn't expecting it to ski that light and deep!! I was hitting stashes in the trees that I didn't think would have coverage. Only hit one rock, on the runout from elevator. Vista side skied great in spite of the brutal traverse (HUGE wind feature on south side of vista that hasn't been smoothed out yet). Stadium held nice snow till noon. So good to get powder under my feet again.

Skied Hood Tuesday. It's filling in very good above The Mile. Amazing snow quality from top to bottom of the run. 3.5 hours of skinning and booting equaled about 4700ft of awesomeness. Hoping Newton and Gnarl Ridge are in play soon. Might go poke around up there tomorrow if anyone is interested...

*edit* sorry for almost all the photos not being right side up. Not sure what's up with that right now.
I normally stick to Tahoe, but now that my folks live in Ashland been getting to experience South OR and Bachelor a bit more. Just wanted to post some stoke from over Thanksgiving.
Mt. Ashland has some great cover and at least a solid foot of powder the week of thanksgiving. Drug my gf out to find out on the downhill she'd never snowboarded real powder, she's from the ice coast.... Fun was still had even though I also forgot my skins for my powder skis...so 70mm waisted rock skis had to do.
Black Friday was alpine climbing time at Pilot Rock. If you're in SO and are looking for a short alpine scramble this is a good one. The gf took much better to crampon and tool use, than to powder.
Why hello there Mr. Crow
Mt. Shasta off in the distance.
Also strap on crampons + Ergo's are a bitching setup

nice, pilot rock is a real cool spot to poke around, check out avenue of boulders if back in area during summer for another off the beaten path playground Originally Posted by NorCalNomad

Mt. Bachelor is still low tide, but that's a given. As long as you stay in the spots where snow accumulates, there's no issue. I have ridden every day (except Tues) since last thursday and have no base serious dings. The best part is there hasn't been any significant increases in temp. and so there is almost no crust or hard layer under the fresh stuff. Even in the high spots around the mountain, the snow is still quite nice. And that will continue through next week. Bachy is pretty much riding all time right now, I really am excited for cloud chaser to open. Hopefully it's sooner than Dec. 26. This monday should be another thriller! Originally Posted by puma

One addition to this, is a plan for Outback on the 10th too. Happy about that happening, but still sad about the lack of beginner terrain for my son. Sunshine Accelerator needs to be a thing of the past.

What I don't get is the flatter terrain wouldn't take the beating like steeper runs do. Braking/skidding is more inherent were the flats everyone straight lines it. At least you can count on management to be a day late on your dime. Oh and the grooming was less than minimum wage performance. Somethings never change. Cocoas is open.

They are probably going easy on the grooming to avoid churning up a bunch of rocks and dirt

A second pass over the wind rows would be appropriate. Keep hearing 2 feet? of blower pow coming in.
