Dave_Schuldt Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 BC or XC Seahawks game starts at 3:30 so trafic should be melow on the way back. Nothing too serious, I will be doing trail work on Saturday. Quote
RocNoggin Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 I would be interested in some BC, what do you have in mind? Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted January 18, 2006 Posted January 18, 2006 Dude, count me in! This time I'll bring the Smoked Salmon! Quote
Dave_Schuldt Posted January 18, 2006 Author Posted January 18, 2006 Forcast looks good so far. Keep in mind that I will be slow. Quote
RocNoggin Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 that makes two of us. I have been fighting a cold not quite over it yet but I want to get out and make some turns! Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I like taking it easy anyway. I might have one other that could come with as well, but he sounds like Saturday may be the better day for him though. From looking at the forecast, Sunday will probably be a better day since the snow will have stopped and there may be some sunny skies. So....any locations in mind? Quote
Dave_Schuldt Posted January 19, 2006 Author Posted January 19, 2006 I'm leaning towards XC right now, will make up my mind later. Quote
RocNoggin Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 I am looking at making some turns on Sun. up and down, not round and round on the XC trails. up at the Pass I would be very interested in skiing the Crooked Couloir or the Slot Couloir. Quote

Â I'm with you on that. Not sure where these Couloirs that you mention are, but somewhere around the Pass sounds nice and close. Hope'n to demo some boots that I think I'm going to get too. Quote
crazy_t Posted January 19, 2006 Posted January 19, 2006 Get Martin Volken's book Backcountry Skiing Snoqualmie Pass, it's all in there. A phenomenal guidebook, with great info at the beginning about safety, planning tours etc. Slot Couloir looks great, I don't know about conditions though (heard it was still heavy stuff as of Wed PM). I may be touring in the area tomorrow, if so I'll post about conditions. Quote
apound Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I would be interested in skiing on Sunday. The routes that you mentioned might be hard to access because it's tricky to find the right way up out of Commonwealth Basin. There's always Red Mountain. Quote
Kitergal Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I'll be up at Crystal Saturday...just like every saturday! PM me if ya want to carpool! Quote
allsetcobrajet Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I'm interested in doing a tour in the Alpental area on Sunday if you guys are putting something together. Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I'm interested in doing a tour in the Alpental area on Sunday if you guys are putting something together. Â I don't know if I can stand the Bosses Ass all day though! Â Seriously though, I'm thinking something around the pass would be really nice with the weather supposedly being clear all day. Send me a PM and we can discuss options of where to go. Quote
RocNoggin Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 so far we have about 4 of us heading out of Snoqualmie Pass Sun. looks like we will be heading for Silver Peak. let me know if you are interested in joining us. Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 Shitty weather. Shitty TR. Damn mongolians breaking down my shitty wall. Â Quote
cman Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 i had a day like that a couple years ago on dirty face. tree bombs are awesome anyways it was a good workout. Â you should have been home drinking beer and watching the hawks Quote
RocNoggin Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 thanks for posting the TR...though after having experienced it I am not sure why I wanted to relive it by reading your post. Â over 20 fucking k on a groomed trail in heavy tele gear for 3 turns! what a day. and in the rain no less... Quote
Weekend_Climberz Posted January 23, 2006 Posted January 23, 2006 you should have been home drinking beer and watching the hawks  Got some of that in, too! Saw everything from about the 2nd half of the 2nd quarter, till the end. Left before the game was over and saw the fireworks go off from SafeCo while driving across the WSB. Knew then they did it. Fireworks are way cooler in person than watching them on TV. Quote
