Oregon ‘23-‘24 El Niño Schralpadelic Rumble Thread

[Verde]

Did you guys get asked by any staff to GTFO?

Nope. They had lots of folks trying to get ready for this weekend, though.
But even if we get the snow predicted later this week, that's not happening.

As you can see, light winds from the SSW

NOAA sez

No FOMO on my part. Slay away! Hopefully they can at least get Red going if not Pine on Saturday or Sunday at the latest. Otherwise it's cardio Saturday for me.

Tomorrow is to treat the Alzheimer's of muscle memory
Saturday and Sunday to let the lactic acid flush from my quads
Monday more stuff should be open.

True, I don't care, and nobody else has any empathy nor sympathy for your morning outdoor exploits on a volcanic edifice in the vicinity of the local Deschutes county ski area. However, we do care about the conditions that were encountered during such exploits. So, if you could be so kind. Thanks.

[Tap]

[kinkilla]

I'll second Tap's assertion. Apologies for the lack of conditions. The BC90s ate it up and were raring to go for a second lap.

You will not enjoy a 10" base that's been torn up by the hundreds that got there before you. That's not enough to bury much terrain.

My bad, 10" was on MHM's web site that was not updated yet. It's a 19"-30" base
