www.oldsnowboards.com Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 Time to think about your season passes if you don't already have them. New website at www.skihood.com Side note: Dan, one of our local carvers made the photo loop on this page, you may have to click refresh a half dozen times to see the photo. Photo credits I believe go to Michael Hildreth. Looking for last years thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted September 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Locals. I have two of my regular 4x4 pass deal partners that would like to join a group. So, if you want to join a group or have a group they can join. Please let me know. Details here:$449 each The Best Unlimited Adult Season Pass Deal on Mt. Hood! Every day, every lift access to the most exciting and diverse terrain in Oregon. Pays for itself in as little as 6 visits to the mountain. This is a special price offered to members in a group of 4, when purchased online by October 31, 2009. Each member can purchase his or her pass individually once the group is created by the organizer, but passes will not be issued until all four passes have been purchased. This offer is for Ages 23 to 64. To be clear, I bought mine last spring, so I will not be a leader in a group this year. The two folks I speak of a couple that I have ridden with for MANY years and are the best of folks. They would rather join a group that lead it.

Galen Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 Looks like a warm and dry one. gonna wait until Dec to decide. Bach may be a better choice if it's going to be warm and dry.:( http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/predictions/long_range/seasonal.php?lead=3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.oldsnowboards.com Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 MHM sent my pass in the mail!! Gotta luv that!! No messing around.

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted November 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Looking for a reason to put a "Gathering" together Time to catch up with old friends and introduce yourself to some new ones. Maybe you know some folks on BOL that you would like to meet in person? Maybe you are new to the Pacific Norhwest and you would like to find a riding buddy? Maybe you just want to fondle the new Tanker 2010 SilverTanker? Perhaps like me chatting it up with old and new friends while drinking good beer and Pizza is reason enough?? It would be really cool if we had a special guest? In the past we have been honored with the presence of the likes of Mike Jacoby, Mike Tinkler, Sandy Rose, Bob Jenney etc. Magic happens when you put these folks together, hint , hint!!!

www.oldsnowboards.com Posted November 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 Feeling poorly, but made it up for a couple hours. Overall? Excellent early season conditions!! The main groomed runs looked really solid, very few signs of rocks, dirt etc. Some of the runs had big low spots and pretty wavy, but overall one of the best opening days I have seen. Folks were early and kept filing in all day. Main parking lot full by 10am. Annex was being used then. Fortunately they had Shooting Star open from the get go. Played there for a few before the swarms started to migrate over. The Mt Hood Express was pretty crowded till I left at noon. Got a few powder runs in and it was good to be on the mountain!! Wish I could have gone up today but the cold has gotten the better of me. Off to an excellent start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They barely can have it and the calendrial winter didn't even started yet. Hi Hans, yes, here are a couple photos of the snow in the trees. Most of our base fell in about 48 hours. Happens quite often, the area is bare , then BOOM one big storm opens the areas. Timberline opened last week and Mt Bachelor is still hurting for snow. Mt Bachelor, Timberline and Meadows almost always open within a week of each other. This year Mt Bachelor drew the short straw on the opening.

Worked it liked only we can!! Definitely could have been on the Tanker. Flat light and wavyness kept me off an alpine board (not to mention the dill-rods in line stepping on a Tinkler!) Early in line , then hit SS half dozen times, passed through the base, milked out Red (no line) and I was on my way out when they opened Daisey. So I made a couple more and called it a day. Just spoke with the advise nurse, says I have the Flu. Probably not the H1N1 version. Have a great first day dude!! Missin your dry whit and darkly clever comments!!
