Who wants to throw down for a fleet of cloud seeding planes and some planet-cooling devices so we can make this shit happen?

Also, here's to a season that's better than the last one.

i have my crystal pass, and with that i get 1/2 off snoqualmie tickets, and i'm stoked for night skiing this year
 
I hope it snows a bunch this year, y'all! Last year I got 3 days, which is the fewest days since I started skiing. It left me with much sadness.
 
Anybody ever taken a rail up to the pass and just seshed pre-season? Couple friends and I really wanna do it but idk where we would go without trespassing.

I do it all the time. You can go up on the forest service roads if you dont want to trespass. Also you can get to higher elevation. I already had a session on veterans day.

People used to just drag stuff out of the pile at the base, idk if that would still fly.

Lol I've always wanted to do that. I think you'd definitely have to know someone.

Bosco texted me in the morning. Otherwise I would have just slept in cuz I was hungover as shit.
 
Unfortunately, I'm mostly serious. I know to not expect much this early and with low coverage. Thankfully I've been living in Bellingham and shredding Baker a ton lately, but I'll be around compton this week and have been feigning for some jibbin. I'm hoping there will be something set up...I mean they were able to set up some jibs basically over dirt for the rail jam. I'm just debating if it's worth it at all to plan a day or two there yet.
 
Anyone been up this week? Alpental sesh tomorrow if the pass is open, couldn't get through today which is =( but also =D

Ive been there almost every day. Pretty bogus with only 3 or 4 lifts running, but alpy is freakishly deep right now.
 
Hey guys. Long time skiier of White Pass due to growing up in Yakima. After going to CWU for the last few years, realizing Snowqualmie is a much quicker drive and easier to make it up there for half days during the school week. How is it up there? Never skiied a day at Snowqualmie and seeing how it compares to White before I drop the $400 on the season pass.

Well, if you are going to ski 5 times, $400 is a fucking no-brainer. If you're going to ski less than that then you're a no-brainer.

Snoqualmie is ill. Got three mountains to play on if you get the LTD pass, summit east, west, and central. If you get the unlimited you can hit Alpental as well which is higher elevation and generally better for more advanced all mountain shit. Also has a backcountry. I thing you can hit Alpental on weekdays with the LTD pass actually, but I'm not sure. Central's got the park which is dope when we have the snow to really build it. East (Hyak) is great for hot laps and smaller crowds and usually has good snow. West is pretty much good for nothing lol.
 
I had the lamest Tuesday ever right before Christmas, and I got pretty turned off of this mountain because of it. That being said, my homie convinced me to hit up night park tomorrow evening, so I'll be up there, possibly using one of the two free tickets I won at Small World.

West is good for hitting on latino chicks then getting beaten up in the parking lot.

That's what you get for hitting on cholas. It's called Snocompton for a reason.
 
No kiddin. Thought about gettin some skiing in today on my way back home from Spokane but when I got there I drove right on past.
 
Folks from Line were at alpy today. Turns out, Leo Talliefer is scary good at skiing.

Kinda funny, i saw their crew just ripping down the fan and one dude was just going huge of anything and everything while making giant GS turns accross the mogul field. then i saw him on top of a 40 footer, and he started "cawing" like a crow, at which point someone called him leo and i put two and two together. Dude is on another level.

Yup I saw that over on TGR. The dude was like Tigger, just bouncing off everything.

I hope it's not just central on Tuesday- if they do open alpy for the team be sure to check that out... It's one helluva show.
 
Yo the line spring break thing today was actually lame, basically everybody had stopped skiing by 1 when we got up there and they packed up and left at 2:30. Some friends of mine said they stopped at the line tent earlier too and said that it was awkwardly quiet so they left. Boys cant handle the qualmie death cloud

Should have been there Sunday. 60 degree sunny skies, soft slushy snow and low key chair 2 hotlaps from Dylan diggers, Leo taillefer, and Andrew whiteford... Attitude was low key, skiing certainly was not. I guess central was rad too.

Sucks the vibe was shitty today. Was it pretty crowded?

Nope. I chilled in the tent til 1 and took some mellow laps. The park was about as sticky as I've ever seen it in the morning. Bummer the weather didn't cooperate.
