    Lol. I always hang my stuff up to dry after a day of getting after it outside. But I only seem to get around to the full outerwear wash + rewaterproofing about once a season and usually after my first damp day back in it. Same can be said about sno-sealing my boots & gloves...

    or

    and this

    My outer layers get washed several times a season.
    More if the number of times I skied or toured and worked up a sweat is frequent.
    I've also gotten in the habit of soaking and washing my helmet liner and goggle frames a few times a season as well.

    I'll have to get rainypas s to repair and waterproof my pants.

    Also HH tricked me with my new shell. The Orange trim is a different color than my pants from HH.

    It just dawned on me that this is probably the most excited I've ever been to ride Summit West on a Saturday.

    Padded seat operations can't come soon enough...

    Not sure what you're getting at but I'll assume it was snarky. It's December and the chairs are spinning - I'm pretty sure you'll be seeing more of me around the neighborhood, esp. as I have to start burning vacation time to avoid losing it over the holidays.

    I did manage to get some wood cut this week so I can finally finish framing a door downstairs and have a guest room for the inevitable BBI occupation. Nothing in the cabin is plumb or level...

    Hey, look at the bright side, not have a plumb, level or square place takes all the pressure off you.

    I hope next week's forecast is inaccurate..looks pretty warm. NOAA calling for high of 42 on Thursday at Summit. WTF?! More pineapple?

    I guess I should just stop looking everyday and enjoy this weekend.

    Thanks. I hit Cliff Mass hoping for something, but nothing new. Really hoping for a big storm or two soon!

    Medium-range models show a bout of high pressure moving-in next week but breaking-down after next weekend. That's not entirely abnormal for this time of the year... I imagine we'll get some good storms once the ridge disintegrates.

    2 skin laps to top of Thunderbird/Wildside today. Rain crust top to bottom off piste. 1st and 2nd pass groomers were frozen and chunky. A few inches tonight per forecast would help for tomorrow's golf course opener.

    I ran into an old gray-haired guy on GregL's skis.
