Right on, it would be great to see you and meet your son! Perhaps I should clarify though, I am heading to Bend/Bachelor, that probably wasn't clear in my earlier post.

Hey all,

Yeah, its been a long time since I've posted, whatev's...

I have quite a few free or discount lift passes for Bachelor, 5 sets to be exact. Each set includes 1 free ticket and one 50% off coupon, so 2 people can ride for $46 total for the day. I've split them up so more folks have an opportunity to enjoy the festivities, so the answer is: "NO, you can't have 3 sets for Saturday", don't ask.

PM me if you are interested, I'm gonna need your full name because these will be at 'will call' so to speak. That is also why the half off coupon will be based on window price and wont include the email price discount. Also let me know if you want another set for Sunday, if there aren't enough takers for the Pond Skim / Bike-n-Beer fest on Saturday, I'll kick em down. It should be a fun weekend with good weather breaking just in time for the festivities.

Details here: https://www.mtbachelor.com/event/sun...-weekend-2019/

Usual preferences will be given to the establishment, special considerations will be made for any out of state travelers who want to make the trip. The PM window will be open until Tuesday morning, allowing the weekend crowd a chance to see this post. I will contact everyone at that time with the details.

Cheers!

I‘m gonna try to go to the UFO parade today in Mac.

Heard that tinfoil hats are all the rage there

Amazing conditions on the south side of hood today. Went up pearly gates, descended old chute and west crater rim. Clouds broke up halfway up the climb and we were skiing in the sun around 1130. Typical Mt Hood weekend zoo going up, lots of climbers walking down as we were going up. I think the WNW winds over the last 48 hrs really helped fill in the S side with good snow. Boot top cold pow with a thin wind crust and fun sluff for the first 1500 ft down, then into this supportive/edgable crust on the snowfield and friggin awesome groomers the rest of the way.

Hopefully skiing some laps with SVS tomorrow. Looks like snow levels are gonna be between 5-6k, right at the base of Timberline, so could be some fun groomer zooming if it works out.

Atta boy! Still feeling like skiing this year? Would be great to get out for a couple spring tours. There’s also that summer solstice party on illumination rock above Palmer...

Last day of the season for me. Not a bad way to end things. A few inches of corn snow to harvest.

**SirVicSmasher** · 05-19-2019, 06:02 PM

Brown snow skied better than the white by Braille in the canyon fog, had a boulder let loose, and skied on the surface of mars today.

People just hike up with snowshoes too

**wyeaster** · 05-19-2019, 08:03 PM

i thought about that, too. i'll have to see if the boy's schedule permits. i think he'll be in drama camp. i'm sure he'd like to come but maybe a few more years.
