  1. What better way to finish a climb of the NF then by skiing down the *clearing throat noise* SNOWDOMEEEE.
  2. No one has mentioned the Hotlum/Wintun of Mt Shasta. The West Face of Shasta and the North face of Lassen are also classics.
  3. Ew I want to bump this with a photo of me from another board: Yes I do ski with that on at times.
  4. From the PDX forecast discussion: ".SHORT TERM...COLD FRONT FINALLY APPROACHING COAST EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...<snip>...LOW AND MID LEVEL WINDS NEVER DO BECOME OROGRAPHICALLY FAVORED FOR SIGNIFICANT SNOW IN THE CASCADES SO WILL NOT ISSUE ANY HEADLINES FOR CASCADE SNOW" What did we do to upset him?
  5. NIIiiiiiiiiiiceeeeeeeeee! South Lake Tahoe is so w00t w00t especially when strippers, blow, kirkweed and gambling are involved.
  6. Gaper_Jeffy

    W00t

  7. I have a wireless temperature sensor mounted outside my apartment that in addition to reporting current temperature tracks historical min and max. Last night it recorded a low of 40 degrees, which is the lowest since I reset the unit a few months ago,
  8. All I ever think about is freshiez.
  9. I feel it so strong, my avatar now does the freshiez dance
  10. Cross-posted from rockclimbing forum: I have a 3 year old finger injury that hasn't healed. I think it’s an A2 Pulley rupture/tear. I'd like to get it evaluated by a hand specialist or ortho who sees a lot of rock climber finger injuries. Anyone have recommendations for someone in the Portland area?

  12. Ah you need to go to some of the aerobics classes. Mornings and afternoons seem to have the highest concentrations. Also try some of the social functions like the coffee/book club. If you go at the right time it's like a MILF meat market.
  13. Mmmm . . . Club Sport MILFs :-)

  16. Who is turning the trolls on? These posts remind me of a bummer sticker I saw on an MHM vehicle once. It said in big letters "RESORT? YES" and underneath http://www.friendsofcooperspur.com/, which is a pro Cooper Spur development website.
  17. Oh yeahhhhhh it's FRESHIEZZZ FEST at Timberline right now!
  18. After spending the last 11 days Googling Indian volcan lore, I post this which is from the Friends of Mt Adams mailing list: The Goldendale Sentinel - Opinion Page Oct. 1, 2004 Rumbles of Discontent The hundreds of earthquakes coming form Mt. Saint Helens could have an explanation other than fall rains and building pressurized steam. Perhaps she is mad at Dave Riley, general manager of Mount Hood Meadows Ski Resort. It's possible that Loowit (St. Helens) is telling the Yakama Nation her thoughts about this guy Riley putting a giant behemoth of a resort upon her boyfriend Pahto (Mt. Adams). The development proposal and earthquakes in the recent news come with eerie proximity. Perhaps the fair maiden Loowit sees right through Riley's smoke and mirrors. "What we envision is a resort that reflects and interprets the culture of the Yakama Indian Nation," Riley told the Hood River News. Did the history books gloss over that part about Yakama being rabid golfers or skiers? I've ridden my snowboard from the summit of Mt. Adams five times and of all the people I've run into up there none on skis or otherwise were Yakama. My understanding is they thought white men to be nuts for going up the volcanoes in the early days. Maybe Loowit is shaking so much because she sees Riley's plan for what it is, a race to own the first major destination resort in the Northwest. Every resort in the Cascades is chasing the dream, to be like Colorado with giant shopping centers and hotel complexes serving skiers who get out once a year and go to full service resorts and spend hundreds of millions on everything sold around skiing. Most can't even ski the terrain at the proposed 11,000-foot height the Adams gondola would reach. It's not about skiing or helping the Yakama, it's about developing real estate and golf. It's about getting rich, she said with the last 2.0 quake. Ski resorts define "capital flight" with profits going into the multinational corporation that own them and little to the locals who are then priced out of their homes, she said with another minutes later. "It's a logical extension of where Hood River is going," Riley told the Media. Could it be that Loowit wants Riley to know that Hood River doesn't own the natural splendor and wild areas on this side of the river? Perhaps she wants Pah-to to stay the semi-wild place that he is. I've skied her too, we've talked and she knows that ski resorts don't really bring much money to the local economy. Loowit could be grabbing your attention saying the only thing to come is part-time seasonal jobs that pay minimum wage and a season pass to any ski bum willing to run the lifts or flip burgers and bed sheets for soft city-skiers looking for the Extreme experience of riding on a live volcano. Not my boyfriend she is saying, don't sell him into slavery like you did Wyeast (Mt. Hood). -- Greg Skinner
  19. Northern Oregon Cascades Forecast: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/data/forecasts/ORZ011.php?warnzone=ORZ011&warncounty=ORC005
  20. Tonight. Rain early. Then showers after midnight. Snow level 7000 feet lowering to 5000 feet after midnight. Snow accumulation locally 1 or 2 inches. Saturday. Showers. Snow level 5500 feet. Snow accumulation 1 to 3 inches. Pass winds west 10 to 15 mph.
  21. With all the hype this got I'm disappointed. There's already a ton of skis on the market. Why can't the gapers at G3 figure out how to make a decent releasable, lightweight tele binding?
  22. Some ski areas have an RN and MD on staff during the winter. I think Hood Meadows is one of these areas. You could contact them to inqure more about this.
  23. Wowwww wait a sec here. Don't you guys realize Boise also has a plethora of Mormons? Based on culture alone I'd say SLC is more diverse. A much larger outdoor non-moron contingent there as well. Most of the Motards you meet will be pretty nice--and they will provide an endless source of amusement and inside jokes.
