    You've also helped a fellow mag out, cooked and fitted some liners in your camper as well.

    Don't forget to fish n' chips as well, so you're not so wasted that a totally new rig starts to seem like a good idea ... you know, since you're already there.

    The heater in that camper was epic. Didn’t we get the boot hot enough to stretch the plastic?

    Not that I remember. I think we were just molding some loaner boot liners after Kopi broke his old ones in half.

    Yes there is. Thread drift/derailment is exactly why you search first.
    Common sense. So rare today in America it's almost like having a superpower.

    FFS I searched. Asked for a simple recommendation that wasn't worth starting a thread over. If we had regional sub forums I would post there. Let it go.

    Harden the fuck up.

    You lit a fire with a selfish TT question that has at least a half dozen threads out there on the exact topic/city. No need to get defensive, rather calmly deal with some of the resultant shit flung your way.

    This place is soft and getting softer.

    Slackey coming back into the season strong!

    If you look through the threads, you'll see there's no consensus on who's the best. A few good ones, so you got options. See which one is convenient location wise, call them to discuss their methods and then choose. They'll all work with you to get it right.

    If you are just molding a liner, I took mine to Gerks in Issaquah and they did a good job. Was $50. They seemed OK. Not sure I would use them for a full fitting.

    I've also used Sturtevants, but that was 8 years ago. He spent an hour with me for a $20 adjustment working to get it right.

    Man I hope this weather turns soon. Looking forward to Saturday on the padded seats. Will keep my eyes out for you kooks.

    Hello drizzle my old friend
    I see you've trashed rockface again
    Because pwls soft creeping
    With wetness sly seeping
    And the moisture that was planted in my snow
    What a blow
    Within the sounds of slishing

    In snowless dreams I skied alone
    Narrow runs like cobblestone
    'Neath the halo of a slopeside lamp
    I turned my collar to the cold and damp
    When the crash of an avalanche that split the night
    What a plight
    And touched the sound of slishing

    "Fools" said I, "You do not know
    Pwls like a cancer grows
    Read my pits that I might teach you
    Turn on transceivers that I might reach you
    But my words like silent raindrops fell
    No one tell
    And echoed in the wells of slishing

    And the skiers bowed and moaned
    To the trickling rain that droned
    And the puddle reflected its warning
    In the weight that it was forming
    And made the sound of slishing

    And the water said, "The words of the forecasters
    Are written on the rain runnel marks
    And debris arcs"
    And whispered in the sounds of slishing

    i've never used the free days I get on my MHM pass at Baker
    I know that there isn't lodging at the hill
    what town(s) should i be looking in to minimize the morning commute but still have options for economy (but not crappy) lodging?
