Oh my some heavy hitters rolling in! Giggity!

**puma** · 01-11-2022, 10:51 AM

I am a maybe for Silver, and a doubtful for Schweitzer. I have to be back somewhat early Sunday. I will probably look to come out a day early and hit Schweitzer on Friday instead. It would be great to hook up with others Friday if around!

I'm a virgin to the area. Thoughts on:

Stay in Sandpoint Thursday night. Ski Schweitzer. Stay in Kellog Friday night. Ski Silver Saturday. Does that sound reasonable, or would locals suggest a different game plan?

If I was to add another day, and ski Thursday also, would folks recommend that is at at Schweitzer?

Kellogg is about 20 min from Lookout. If you’re new to the area and looking to explore could be worth putting that on the radar.

**NW_SKIER** · 01-11-2022, 09:15 PM

Good thing we got a 6 post JONG in here to help us read the map.

**sgirard** · 01-11-2022, 09:32 PM

Guy asked for advice from locals. Guess I’ll keep it too myself next time. Sorry man.

**SkiLyft** · 01-11-2022, 09:43 PM

Chill, guy. Just yanking your chain. Get yourself to this get together and rip around with us. We're dicks, but we're the friendly kind.

You body shaming me? I'm not heavy enough to need any lightening.

Geez, tough crowd. @NW Wish I could make the meetup and show you how to make a turn

@puma great thing about this area is lots of places to spread it around and you can’t go wrong.

Schweitzer is rolling good. We have received almost 200" since November and coverage is fantastic everywhere. Looking forward to showing the maggot hoards about.

Anyone skiing midweek the 28th and beyond? I have pass exchange days good for midweek

Be nice guys...

Puma - I'd think about the following:
Schwizz Thursday
Turner (or Lookout) Friday (if it has snowed recently)
Silver Saturday

Lookout can be fun IF they have gotten a decent dump. There is some fun "sidecountry" that is mostly untouched tree skiing.

Turner is a gem north east of Sandpoint. Dont forget you're crossing in to MST so calibrate drive accordingly. Great fall line tree skiing.

I'd also say Schweitzer is a big enough/interesting enough mountain that Thursday and Friday won't be a waste, especially if its snowing or good vis.

Depending on work stuff for me, I might be available to ski on Thursday or Friday or both. Would be happy to show you around schwizz.

Awesome. Thank you for the recon. Thanks also @sgirard

It's a fair drive from North Bend, so I think I'll look at taking that extra day! I wish I could be there Sunday too, but not in the cards. I am looking forward to making turns at areas new to me, with folks I've not met before! (Not sure if any of you have been down at Bachelor during spring meet ups in the past, they have always been real hazy for me...so I do not remember!)

What's the rv lot situation at silver? Cluster F or doable? It is mildly terrifying getting to the swiz rv lot with a trailer.

Hardest part of getting to the silver RV lot is 4th of July pass on I 90.

**Iowagriz** · 01-12-2022, 01:32 PM

Likely in. Silver only, but would be up for Lookout on Friday. I see they run a Mon-Fri special, 50% off tickets of you show a pass from any other mountain.

Puma, I'll let you know if that becomes my plan.
