Bullwings Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 Wow, 16-18 inches of powder so far and it's still snowing. on top of that, they're still making snow too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terryw Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Yep, and roads are closed. Makes it hard to get to the pow. I am changing my plans to Thursday this week. Anyone for a midweek ride? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carvingchef Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Terry you should have been more specific and ask for snow on the mountain but not on the road, sunday should be good for carving, any way we can convince you to come up on sunday too, irwin is going, bullwings is going (we never met i don't know his name), Aaron migh be going and everybody else is welcome too and it looks like sunday January 4th is the official carving gathering day for Snow Summit, last year it was fun, let's do it again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terryw Posted December 16, 2008 Report Share Posted December 16, 2008 Andrea, I am just a poor working slub. I cannot afford to go up if it is not on my pass. Unfortunately, Sundays and holidays are right out. I will warm up the trails for you guys on Thursday :D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronG Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Maybe we can take a few runs in honor of Jim Pryor. There seems to be a few carvers coming up and I also made some phone calls to ppl I have met on the hill who are not BOL members.

AaronG Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Guys, providing we can get up there the conditions should be incredible. Carvealicious as Big Mario likes to say over on the CO ride board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carvealicious as Big Mario likes to say over on the CO ride board. Theyre going to be incredible thurs, fri, sat, sun, mon...probably past that even! and more snow next week maybe? crazy. I hope baldy gets the goods...that place just plain ROCKS it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Sub Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 After reading Terry's report...sorry guys...I would love to ride with you all, but my first day back on the hill, with minimal days last year = bad idea on a crowded holiday weekend. after the holidays.

I don't have any idea what I'm doing and I've done fine at a mountain where everyone is out to get you. No, really. I've been knocked over while standing next to the lift line turnstile. Still had fun. Go out and ride, the snow is incredible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullwings Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Ended up going up one day early... My brother and his friends wanted to go today. So i went. My buddy for tomorrow bailed (swollen thyroid...), and my brother is too tired to go up again tomorrow. And since I don't go up solo anymore since breaking my leg, i guess that means i'll have to wait till wednesday (24th) to go up again. Anyway, as far as conditions are concerned. AWESOMENESS!!! Great carving conditions. coverage is exellent, and the snow pack is the perfect consistency for laying an edge in. Surprisingly, it wasn't as crowded as i expected. i think a lot of that has to do with the road conditions... they suck big time. you HAVE to have chains and put them on, or you're not making it up there. or, you need a truck with 4wd and some big knobby tires (like me ). anyway, to everyone going up tomorrow. have fun, drive safe, and hopefully i'll catch you all some other time (1-4-09). sorry again Aaron, it's been a while since we've been boarding.

I can not stand crowds, and lemmings, and paying inflated prices just because of what day it is. after the holidays, mid-week. Maybe a weekend then, too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
