And next Tuesday (Sept 23) at the Kennedy School in PDX

I think this question warrants discussion and input from the local riding community. In the course of a discussion with HoodCoast, the issue of the size of the Meadows jumps last year came up again. Though it is extremely unlikely that we will be able to construct something as large as the...

Don't make me regret posting the fusion pass info :P JK - I love (no homo) Skibowl and Timberline, too.

It is not hard at all - the bindings sit on top of the pads and are not really connected by anything except the mounting screws - you just need to make sure to get the proper length mounting hardware. I have three pairs of skis with Px12 lifters and I had all of them mounted without the lifter...

Ponyboy said the fusion passes are good starting Sept 13 (next Saturday!) and that they would be doing some sort of park. The 3x3 Meadows passes are $333 this year (how symmetrical).

Nice - thanks for the update. I am looking forward to seeing what you guys do with the late summer/early fall park.

Good question - I am sure they are going to stop grooming the parks with the lifts closed, though there may be some hittable features - there is a jump for aerials on the Palmer that will probably be there for a couple of weeks yet and the remnants of the quarter pipe in the public park might...

The Timberline parks were top notch all year - from the Thunder park in December to the public park on Saturday afternoon (August 30). I have not one bad thing to say about them - There couldn't have been more than 10 or so people riding on Saturday and the crew was out setting features and...

That was a clever bit of doublespeak there - The situation is that we have purchased the gun, have permits for nearly everything (including the building) and the patrolers have been training to use it. There is still some paperwork remaining, but we are working toward getting it in place before...

Powder_weasel and I will probably be gaping the park on Saturday. I will probably be wearing an orange and white striped polo - hit us up if you are there.

As an accountant, I love the scanners. As a rider, not so much. I definitely want to hear feedback in the season if the scanners start slowing lines down.

I was up there on Saturday and the park was still pretty good. The public lane is now where the HCSC was, and they have a set of jumps (three abrest with different sized take offs - something like 20, 30 and 45 but we didn't pace any of them out) and some rails set (urban single barrel down...

Posted on skihood.com today: Mt. Hood Meadows Improvements for 2008/2009 Season MT. HOOD, OR (Immediate Release) – Whether it is access to new off-piste terrain or the new ticket scanning technology installed at the chairlifts, improvements at Mt. Hood Meadows this season will enhance the...

Mt Hood Meadows, of course. Also, Timberline is open all summer and Skibowl is often open into May.

I think we have a really good chance of influencing the type of features and the layout - that will simply be a question of letting me know what is good and bad about the parks and my communicating that to Jason and Mike - and you know how to get in touch with me. Truthfully, it should help the...

I am really suprised that no one else has figured this out, but the best value you are going to find in a used ski car is a late model AWD Chevy Astro Van for around $8K. Unlike the Voyager, the Astro is built on the S10 truck chassis, so it is much more burly than a car based van. Mine has...

This was exactly my experience when I rode at both last winter.

Here is a picture of a bush baby

Now that this epic!
