jburk Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 Thanks for the update. Hoping to show Sunday and possibly Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kram Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 Sounds beautiful. I'll see you guys Sun Mon Tues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted April 25, 2019 Report Share Posted April 25, 2019 Octavio will be in Spain and Igor is going to be windsurfing in Maui, so you guys are stuck with just me -- I'll be there on Sunday for sure. A little on the fence about ticket vs. pass because I'm not so sure I'm getting back up to Timberline this season, but we'll see how the spirit moves me.

jburk Posted April 27, 2019 Report Share Posted April 27, 2019 Spring pass in name only. It’s mid-20s, snowing and blowing here at T-line today. Magic mile and Palmer are closed due to wind. Conditions are pretty good down low, Flood is running today and tomorrow, then shut down for the rest of the year. Forecast for Sunday looks good, clearing up and wind should die down.

Dan Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 Bluebird and A+ firm carving conditions at T-line yesterday, great riding with Jburk, Mark M and Mark S, and Keenan! I should have taken advantage of the opportunity to sample Mark's carload of demo boards, but I was having so much fun on my Superconductor that I couldn't bring myself to get off the hill to swap bindings. Hope you guys have fun today and tomorrow, I wish I had gotten some photos yesterday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keenan Posted May 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 The forecast looks like today is the only day this week (last week of spring pass) that it isn't raining. I went up. It sucked. Worst grooming that I've seen in years. 2 runs and done. No one should be jealous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburk Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Yuk. Was this on Palmer as well, or just the Mile? I’m desperate, might give Saturday a try, mid-day forecast is for clear skies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSchindler Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 John and other NW hard booters— thought I’d say hello. Pretty new to this social media stuff, but I’ve been enjoying learning through a number of the threads. To those I don’t know, I’m Josh and have ridden a couple times (far less than I’d like) with John this Winter at Meadows. I’m pretty much a fixture up there with 2 kids on racing teams (ski). Love to get up and carve some with you guys up at Timberline. My kids have several weeks of ski camps there this Summer. Spring pass may be a bit rich for me this year as I sprung for a Meadows Gold Pass, but had one of my best days on a Father’s Day at Timberline a year or two ago.

Dan Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Welcome aboard, Jschindler! Always nice to see a new carver here / on the hill. I'm done for this season due to some back issues (John can tell you about that, LOL, he had to open my bindings for me one day because I couldn't bend over that far) - I'm focusing on recovery and rehab so I can get back on the snow next season. I'll hope to see you at Meadows this winter, I had a pretty tragic season this year (maybe 10 days), and hoping to do better next season. What part of town are you in?

JSchindler Posted June 1, 2019 Report Share Posted June 1, 2019 Sorry to hear about your back, Dan. Had mine operated on 3 years ago and about 17 years ago. Seems good now. I live in Portland near the Japanese Tea Garden, but we have a house in Hood River and are there most weekends. I never seem to stop boarding as my kids drag me up to Palmer, but they are in training camps this year so I can skip it. Expensive hassle for 1-2 hours of reasonable boarding between the ice and slush. I mostly windsurf now through Fall. Love to hook up. My e-mail is schindlj@ohsu.edu if you ever want to swap numbers and meet up for a beer. John has my contact info as well. Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, I think my issue can be corrected with PT and yoga, no surgery required - it's just a badly strained back muscle. I was wondering about carpooling, since there are a couple of carvers in SE Portland, but sounds like you'll be coming from Hood River anyway. It would be great to get folks together sometime this summer for a beer - let's see if we can align schedules once more consistent warm weather is here.

JSchindler Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Sounds great. Love to hook up this Summer, drink a beer, share some board porn, etc . . . Sorry about carpooling. Yeah, I’m usually headed out from HR in the Winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
