Went Monday, Tuesday off. Today was sucky traffic, 1/2 full HRM lot @ 8:45, but got 5th row because jongs can't park themselves. Snow was much heavier today, like cream cheese, and lift lines were long.
3rd run, going under Star on a tree line off camber, I jam a quick left turn to dive down the fall line to the right, right ski submarines across the fall line while my body goes down the fall line...2 loud pops out of the right knee.
Made 7 more runs like an idiot. Icing as we speak. First thing I thought of sitting in the snow was I have nonrefundable hotel reservations and a prepaid lift ticket...I'm making BBI, may not be 100%, fuck!

Cannot wait to get over there. If anyone is going to be up there, would be sweet to make some turns. I'll be doing non family style turns, and also family style turns with the wife, an 11 year old, and TBS. HAHA, just kidding TBS, our turns will be non family style, but I'm sure the better half and the young one would love to see ya too!
I also plan to leverage the breweries of central oregon to ease into the evenings. Damn, cannot wait!

Any mags at the Doo today?
I’m not skiing, just on dad duty while mom skis for Valentine’s day ... but from my perch I saw a guy with Praxis skis with custom Bucks Beach graphics (my favorite Praxis graphic), some kind of non-marker frame touring binding and adjustable poles.
Happy Valentine’s all!

18-19 Orygun, The Thread
Pretty good, fresh on top of slight crust underneath on the groomed and the bowls got worked pretty hard this morning, and my wife doesn’t go into Crater so no idea how that’s holding up. I was really worried with high temps, heavy rain, runoff and slush on the drive but there was a huge drop in temp between the 126/20 ODOT station and top of Potato Hill. Mid to high 20’s in the Hoodoo lot with pockets of sun between snow flurries. Dry fresh snow on breakable crust on BC / unskied snow, probably more consistent and supportable inbounds.

Good to know; thanks. We’ll be sticking to groomers, just a mellow cruising day; sounds like it’s worth the drive up.
