2019-20 - Oregon - it never snows here and when it does, it sucks

**river59** · 01-15-2020, 10:45 PM

Fantastic! Thanks for the info.

**mattig** · 01-16-2020, 12:11 AM

This little storm hit Hood much more squarely than expected. It was still nuking when I left at 810pm and I drove through more nukage 60 miles Westward (where the weather is coming from).

Tomorrow should be sleeper deep, if not borderline epic considering the softness of the leftovers this afternoon. Of course I won't be skiing anymore for a while. Off to rehab to cure whatever disease it is that made me think I could keep up with TFT's leisurely Wednesday night pace.

Goods were found today though. Temporary East wind mid day made for some secret stashes. T-rev explained to me how the wind works with snow, AND found my wedding ring when I dropped it right outside the camper. Testament to the freeness of refills that I couldn't find it after about an hour of scraping, digging, and panning for Platinum by hauling snow into the camper and boiling it.

Ugh. I don’t want to see it. Had a last minute meeting keep me in town today...

Go get some gents.

Well it's snowing out my office window right now, but more importantly it's also snowing up at Bachelor too. Looks like not many people up there, so for those that are, they are going to have a good day.

**jonesy** · 01-16-2020, 12:26 PM

No ones @ bachelor......its thrifty Thursday at the Dew. Snowing in Redmond. Now get back to work. Lol

**mattig** · 01-16-2020, 12:49 PM

PR fully opened and several inches of new on top of untouched feet of Oregon's own ImpossiPow™ (face shots taste so much like UT/CO, you won't know the difference).

No wind and walk-on laps. Sleeper pow day confirmed. One of you maggots get some footy if you go!

Too bad about the leg cramps. Time to take physical fitness more seriously for the next time this happens.

Boner town. Love to hear that it’s still Pound Town on Hood.

must have been quiet at open...26 & 84 were both shut down earlier this morning

**puma** · 01-16-2020, 05:03 PM

I bet Northwest was epic today...

I was packed and ready to go at 6:30am and changed my mind when I heard about this.

**jonesy** · 01-16-2020, 05:22 PM

Bachelor NW? Heard it was untracked bottomless faceshots need I say more. Sunday Summit possibly?

Pisses me off to have missed this cycle. Summit Sunday would help to ease that pain...

Anybody ski today? Need status report and pics. I’m feeling stoke withdrawal syndrome after so much storm skiing. Well needed day off but I don’t want to admit it. Bueller... Bueller...

Wait you take rest days? I don't believe it.

**californiagrown** · 01-16-2020, 06:33 PM

How does Hoodoo handle storms and holiday crowds? Thinking about driving on past Hood and the likely shitshow, and straight to Hoodoo this saturday.

**jonesy** · 01-16-2020, 06:44 PM

Hoodoo is never really crowded & its inexpensive. Yes even beers are affordable. Should be some fine pow turns off the backside, all day long.

Even a turkey learns how to fly every now and then. Hope you’re ready to kill the banker

Started out nice and fluffy today at meadows. Twilight through all PR gates open.

Twilight was deep. After a few runs there, used the long traverse towards Clark for lap after lap of untracked.

Everything started to set up from 2-4. Bumps were beginning to firm up and the untracked started getting a bit grabby.

Last run in the afternoon through PR was really nice and showed plenty of untracked leftovers.

Its still pound town. Fresh lines all day rode until 3.30.

Heather is used up but

Still tons of laps to be had in Yoda, Elk and S&R

God's got fucked by a group of no talent assholes and fright trees is fantastically good.

Get some

**thefortrees** · 01-16-2020, 11:07 PM

Thanks river and deebased! Looks like a great day.

Sounds par for the course in gods. Came up on more than a couple folks slicing pizza in jacks the other day 🥶🥶🥶🥶

If it's less than $300/sq ft, it's cheaper than where I'm at now. All about the acreage though.
