gapertimmy Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Climb: Paulina-DARKSIDE Date of Climb: 3/19/2006 Trip Report: I Heart Two Stroke The two stroke engine brought much love yesterday as myself, jlagio, schralper and 3 other oregon sickburds rallied up to newberry caldera for some sledfed turns. When we arrived at the snow park around 7am, the mighty CHEIF Paulina was still socked in the morning clouds. The crew rallied up the cut bank road and we were standing on top of the 'green room' with acres of pow below us. The day was going to be good. Laps on the pitchfork, big easy, haut route, and others were schralped. 6-8"ish inches of buttery pow provided delighful fun on all lines. a good time was had by all. its good to be back. Approach Notes: snowshoeing sux! Quote
iain Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 fkna most excellent G-to-the-T. I was in there for some ice and we gawked a bit at the skiing to be had (alas, our weekend was at an end though). Quote
gapertimmy Posted March 21, 2006 Author Posted March 21, 2006 were you in there this weekend? on our last lap up, there was a dude on snow shoes, with is dog, and his board on his pack. he had already hiked easily 8 miles to get were he was... and had a long ways to go. Quote
iain Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 no, it was a few weeks ago, and I would have much rather been skiing after seeing that stuff, but the ice was cool too. It was during that super cold weekend. BTW I have been using the Bros a bit this season and they are pretty nice boards once you get used to the guided missile feel. Quote
