So I'm trying to get stoked on the backcountry scene after living in Bellingham for four years and then Summit County for one season. What the best backcountry areas in SW Washington and N Oregon? Come on, share the goods. evils3d.gif Where are the secret stashes?

Where are the secret stashes?

 

Well, Nate. Its a secret so don't tell anyone, but I hide my stash under the cookies in the Teddy Ruxpin cookie jar just to the right of the toaster.

But now that I told you, I don't want to come home to find my stash all gone and you sitting in my chair all cheeched-out watching Barney Miller reruns. hellno3d.gif

Nate, there's at least two good books out there on this topic as well as lots of info on the web on this site and others. Do your homework, and I'm sure folks will help you out if you have specific questions.

Well nothing will be quite a sick as Summit County gnar, but I agree with Winter, pickup up Backcountry Oregon which has a ton of info on Hood/St Helens skiing. There are numerous TR's on this site about skiing the Oregon volcanos, and turnsallyear.com is a great resource for ideas on spots to ski (and has TR's organized by time of year which will help with your quest for gnar)

 

Oregon doesn't have the sickest steeps (except for Chute 4 at Mt. Ashland) but there is some worthy goods to be found

Point taken. I should of been more specific. I didn't expect anyone to tell me where to duck the rope for some fresh tracks. I just wanted to know if there was anymore to the backcountry around here than just St. Helens and Hood descents.
