west carven Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 howdy all report of three inches of new wet snow, so got the softies out. first few runs were sweet butter then try to find some funny lines that no one goes. got bumpy with the tracked up wet snow. foggy on the very top, clear then foggy again then some snow then clear again. was a fun day riding softies for a change. got home and between 2 and 3pm snowed an inch of fluffy stuff here in town. forcast is cool temps and no new snow for a few days so should be good groomers with the new stuff. rode my amp5 softies from 9 till 1...

Allee Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Woo hoo!! Time for an appearance from the Madd BX, and I think the Rome and the softies might make the trip ... Snow forecast looks GOOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnasmo Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Cuban, no need for rock boards, at least not for carving on the groomers. I brought out the good stuff weeks ago. Today was carvelicious. Big Ravine has been the go-to run of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinpa Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Anyone want to share their plans here for what days they are riding?

kram Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 The last time I posted I said I was going to be there 2 or 3 days no matter what. I was talking about snow conditions. Wednesday at Stevens Pass I broke my tibia at the ankle. On the first run of the first day we were there. I am not going to make it to WTF this year.

west carven Posted January 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 howdy all very high overcast, a little flat light all day. yesterday was so good, but must have gotten a little too warm cause the lower half of the mountain got a little too icy and the piles of man made snow made a lot of chicken heads and there were polished ice sheets. the upper half was good and the backside was good carving snow. not the best day, but still had fun. there was a little snow falling about an hour during lunch, but not much. rode my pcm175 from 9 till 3...
