Stevens Pass 2012-2013

I saw that guy in a lift line. Looked kinda like a tool. Plus when I saw her she was waiting at the bottom of a run, probably said guy ate shit because of his inability to ski well
 
i'll be there again on wednesday. going to have touring gear with me as well so if anyone wants to show me some cool places to walk, hit me up. (weather/condition dependent, of course)
 
So, we rode the lift with a patroller yesterday who kinda gave us the scoop on the whole park thing:

Basically, the new management wants multiple park locations, while simultaneously cutting the park budget a bit. So, with less money and more terrain to cover, they ditched the park pass. He didn't seem too thrilled on the developments, either. They've seen more dangerous behavior already.

On the one hand, management seems to be trying to make the parks big and good enough to attract more people and maybe compete with Snoqualmie, but safety is kinda being sacrificed at the moment. Apparently the new management comes from Mountain High, so they may just be applying some philosophies from there, which isn't necessarily the best for up here. They do seem to be supportive at least in word, so hopefully they'll be willing to change if stuff doesn't work out.

But big ups to park crew for doing big things so soon in the year and with what they've been given. They're killing it right now.
 
I'm from Snoqualmie, and let me just say that Stevens park could already have competed with Snoqualmies. Just needed to step up their jib game a bit, and get rid of those damn square copings.

That said, I kind of like the change. The two days I've been up to Stevens (on weekends) I didn't see too many gapers in the park, nor ruined lips nor unsafe behavior. Small sample size I know, but I think we can just wait and see.
 
^^I feel like half of this thread is you looking for a ride haha.

on a side note, i may possibly be staying at a buddies cabin next weekend and shralping some stevens. get at me you fuckers.
 
took a ski to the dick today and broke my binding, all by 11am, so i went home where i wasn't paying attention and drove into my garage with my skis on my roof, ripped my roof rack on and boned my garage. awesome day
 
Anybody want to go touring tomorrow? I can drive. Its my birthday and all I want is pow. All my normal partners are either doing gay shit or doing shit that's too hardcore for me..
 
Just straight killin it out there hahaha.

And Riley, the decision has been made. We are going Thursday, too, and will give you a ride.

In other news, the jump line was money today. Carving hard, going deep. Me gusta.
 
okay looks like i will be joining you on thursday,

Now on another note my brother fractured the growth plate on his knee today so there go's his season. :(
 
I heard someone call out someone else in the Skyline lift line yesterday. You both looked like you were 14 years old. 'Hey man, are you on newschoolers?!??' "Yeah.' HAHAHA

I was tempted to turn around and say something about Chad's Gap but I didnt
