Man...we need more and they keep backing off the snow predicitons for the end of this week. i really hope we get something significant. At least it's cold.

Having been to both the Seattle VW and Stone Gardens, I personally like Stone more. The bouldering area is much bigger and interesting, they use ATCs at Stone, and it just feels more homey. On top of that, Stone is cheaper. However, it seems that VW would offer more long roped routes. My only beef with SG is that a few weeks after they set the routes, the tape tends to come off of the lower rocks and sometimes routes become undoable. They should either find a stickier tape or have one of the 2-3 guys that are always at the front desk out in the gym remarking routes as necessary. That's a pretty minor complaint though.

20 inches in 24 hours at Baker. Should've headed up this morning, but will have to wait until Thursday to hit it up. more snow on the way on Tuesday night... bout fucking time:)

Heading up to Whistler this afternoon and need to pick up a Giro helmet. Where's the best place to go for prices/selection? Does MEC have anything?

Good times, good times. Thanks for putting it on Jon. Good slides.

I posted earlier about this. Anybody looking for a job? thePlatform

Good small place with great prices. Found it online and went up there yesterday. Picked up some Smith Regulator googles for half price ($27), though they are last year's, a new Helly Hansen boarding jacket for $100 bucks and some RIDE boarding pants for another $100. I was planning on spending twice that somewhere else. Nice guy tere too. Go check it out if you're in the area. No climbing gear.

For old time's sake... Shultzy's is the Wurst!

I have used a split board and love snowboarding, but i have to agree about backcountry travels. Split boards are great for doing a few long runs in a day. But if you want to really get out there, i'd think a randonee setup would be the best. A number of my friends use them and really seem to have a good time on them. Remember. Randonee is french for "Can't Tele"

i'm sure the coverage will still suck, but i just thought it amusing that they closed after two days and plan on reopening two days later.

Baker was pretty good. Needs more snow. I've never boarded on it that low before. We did some hiking out on the arm and dropped in on the heli-route. Good times near the top but got a tad dicey in the timber. Nothing too bad though. Was more difficult in finding the way out than any sketch sections. the snow was super dense though. Had a hard time keeping the board on top of it, especially in the slow sections. Looing like mixed snow/rain right now and not getting better until wednesday night Hopefully one of the days this weekend will be good.

Installing the hot tub at the baker cabin and watching the auburn alabama game.

w00p predates w00t. i'm old skool...or something

see you in line for the first chair!

it's never soon enough. the agony!

We got seriously TEASED a couple weeks ago. Now it's TOO WARM. WTF?!

In the war of public opinion, we seem to be losing. I highly doubt many of her 'rumors' are correct though. She's mad and she's lashing out, looking for things to grasp to and anything to strengthen her point. That's my guess, anyway.

raining this weekend i think though. Otherwise, baker socks!

So if you were in the Green Room at 8pm, you got to pass the line. Also, the "fashion show" afterwards was great. The movie itself was good, but never built to the end like last years'.

where are you?

yea and not only that but now people can live their life on AIDS. It's much more a chronic problemn than a fatal one. 20 years ago, everyone died that got AIDs.

your web server is the suck. you should put a download link on there as mpegs don't stream very well.

Anybody go?

i'm up in air about this too. Good snowboard stuff? Should i wait for the snow sports expo?
