Looking for B/C ski partners for this winter!

Split-boarders welcome too. (I guess) smile.gif

 

Overall my skill level would be "advanced newbie". I've done about 15-20 days of XC and BC skiing, spread out over maybe 7 years.

 

Have transceiver and shovel know how to use 'em. Took Gary Brill's avy skills class in... 2000 I think it was.

 

On groomed runs I'm solidly intermediate... fast on the blue runs ... sorta clumsy on the blacks but I do like to power thru one or two per day.

 

Lookin to head up to Pardise/Muir, as soon as, well ..... one can get to deep, skiable snow within about 1/4 mile or so of the parking lot!!! Would be great to meet up with folks before then, tho... go for a hike, practice transceiver stuff, have a beer, etc.

(The above was a reprint from my recent post on TAY.com.... my first TAY post ever actually.)

So who wants to go to Muir, or thereabouts, on Saturday the 12th?!??

I'm working on getting my complete A/T setup and should have it ready to go by the end of the month. I also noticed you live in West Seattle, might have to have a WS Pub Club sometime. There's a lot of stuff around the Pass and Stevens that would be good to start out on and match abilities. I'm new to A/T skiing in general, but have CC and Alpine skied for the last ten years or so. Drop me a line sometime. wink.gif

Billygoat et.al.: you want to go the 26th, or 27th? I'm gonna try to keep both days open, just go whichever has better conditions. I'm thinking maybe Crystal backcountry, w/o lifts ... or else Paradise/Muir.
