The lifts stopped turning last week, the lycra was worn one last time for skimming across the pond, and like that, the lift serviced season had come to a sudden halt. That could only mean one thing: it was time to get plab. DISCLAIMER: if you don't like long cheastbeating tr's, EAD, and don't read this. Saturday: Sloggin on yer Sister Fri afternoon, the slack jawed yokel, Cletus, returned to lovely Bend. I was able to convince him that it would be a good idea to wake up but ass early saturday am to go wank our way up south sister. We got up to devils lake a tad after 5, and were under way by half past. The mank in the trees was nice and SOLI==D which made for some excellent skinning and we made pretty good time up to the flatz. The cloud cover and cold temps didn't look very promising: Cletus was bustin some MAD ass on the way up, and that made us skin and a pretty good clip. We made up to the lewis glacier moraine around 8:30ish and decided to wait and bitch and moan about how the sun wasn't coming up to warm up the corniez. Regardless of the lack of sun at that point, it was so grand to back up high again, no noise, the stillness of this lunar landscape is always amazing and worth any amount of slogging to hang out in. We wanked our way up the last 1k' to the top and got up across the summit crater and were on top just about 11, the sun had come out, the snow was warming up, and the view was plab. The ski was fahqin fantastic. I can't really put into words but to sum it up it was plab. perfect snow, coupla inches of corn on top of a good surface, perfect temps, not slush, just freakin sweet. I'm getting wood thinking bout it. Nevertheless, the mountain looked excelent when we got back to the flats and sat staring in awe with big ass shit eatin grins at the wonderful turns we had just had. We were able to ski all the way back to the car, and were back in bend eating some tasty indian food by 2pm. Only in the chosscades could one have some great turns, great views, and great chubs and still have time to go home and walk the dog. Fantastic, thanks Cletus, and thanks to the sun for coming out. Sunday: Sparkin it Up My wonderful lil lady was kind enough to lemme go play on the hill the prior day so Sunday was time to go get plab with Becky. After considering our options, we decided to take out the canoe to Sparks Lake, which I had seen the day before had just melted out. All the normal access roads to the lake were still snowed in (Read no gapers) so we had to put in just off the cascade lks hwy in one of the feeder streams. This was plab. Winding the boat through the marsh lands on the melt off full stream, slowly working our way to sparks lake proper. The sun was out, we had the lake to ourselves, and the views were just freakin fantastic. I spent the better part of the paddle cheastbeating and pointing out our lines from the prior day. I'll let the pictures do the talkin instead. Here's to you chosscades Great weekend, great memories, magical.

PLABFEST IS ON! So far confirmed we have myself, becky, and the porno dogs. you dont' have to be a jibbin fool to come along, as becky prolly won't be skiing unless i hump her skis in for her. We plan on heading up Friday afternoon, and staying through Sunday, but if you can only make it for a day feel free to come up. It would be nice to figure out who's coming so we can plan on one nice meal, the hike isn't that bad at all so we can bring in lots of heavy shite. If the weather turns out the be shatty, we can always pack up and go to smiff, so the weekend will be plab no matter what. tim

YEP, plabfest is on still on for the following weekend. snow has been melting very quickly, ridgelines are popping through quick but there should be plenty of corn for plab fest. I'll bump up that topic and post some logistics. I just want to get up this weekend to check shite out and to avoid doing yardwork. Also, if anyone is free monday, i'm heading up to helens unless i can track down boonecountry for some hayden glacier fun.

well we didn't have any quakes in bend last night but we had some fatty electrical storms. they rolled in around 6Pm (while i was at bat for softball, an epic game btw). but they lasted all night long, the lightning must have been rather close to my house as the thunder shook my house and woke me up at least 5 times. electrical storms are way plab, as long as you aren't on top of a ridge exposed. growing up in texas i learned to respect these storms and appreciate them and its kewl to be back in a place where these are common, albeit scary and the fire dangers suck ass, nevertheless ITS PLAB
