Stevens Pass Hope On The Slopes 2009/ Washington NS Member Gathering

I killed it at fundraising $250! (claim)that makes me warm and fuzzy insideI fucked my hip up though
 
not sure, but I am waiting for another $50 donation from my dads company.

Also going to work today to see if any of them want to donate.

might donate another $10 myself.
 
Alright so I will be arriving early to register etc then I will be sitting out by the clocktower until 9 am to hand out emancipations/whatever else, answer questions meet people etc. Also introduce you to Ryan if you do not already know him so you can work with him to get a little bit of footy if you will be heading into the park or wherever. At 9 am I will likely take off and start lapping skyline, so you can always try to find me there or if you see someone else on the team (youll know if they have an ozone-ish colored bandanna maybe a bunch of glowsticks w/e, it shouldnt be hard to pick out an NSer) and we will meet up. I will be in a red/white jacket and greyish white pants.

Remember to bring lots of food, drinks, sleeping bag/air mattress if you plan on sleeping in the lodge and IF YOU ARE UNDER 18 REMEMBER TO GET YOUR WAIVER FORM SIGNED TONIGHT. Bring warm clothes too. Anyways it should be a lot of fun. If you have questions message me, although I probably wont get to them until 8 or later tonight~
 
theyre making us wear bibs?

maybe stake out corner in lodge to throw our bags?

overnight parking in special lot?

and charge people $5 for pictures with caylor.
 
Saturday Night: Snow showers likely. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 18. West wind around 18 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of 4 to 8 inches possible.
 
Sunday should be sick... Good Luck Team NS. The groomers should be nice and soft and fast for some quick laps tomorrow. Then I hope it pukes on you guys for some late night POW laps.Cheers
 
mandatory head lamps for night pow?

anyway, NS and company is gonna rip shit up tomorrow. This is the LEAST opportune weekend, but whatever, it's going to be siiiick
 
Alright looks like we might wanting to be waking up early for pow on sunday, so id anticipate me just sleeping in the lodge around 12 or so and waking up at 8 for some sunday pow. Meh, ill miss all night skiing for a pow day. Either way it will kick ass~

Who ended up winning?
 
Holy fuck. Best and longest day of powder skiing in my entire life. From about 12 -10pm yesterday, there wasn't a run that I took where I didn't get any face shots.

So deep, so fun, and such a great crew, I love you all.
 
It was too deep, we unanimously agreed that it was too good to cruise groomers. Our team raised some good money for the society, and we all had a good time, which is what this was all about.
 
I love you tooman I think that that was the best 30 hrs of my life the stoke-meter is still through the roof
 
deeeeeeeeep pow (almost deep enough to make caylor move from baker). awesome group. not stoked i had to leave to go to work.
 
haha, sick day guys. amazingly sick day.

it was good to finally put a face to some of the names around here, and i must say the crew was fucking rippin' everywhere, definitely legit all around.

best day of the year, hands down. i had no idea stevens had the potential for that much sickness.
 
God that was fucking sick. Rolling 8-12 deep slaying pow all day night morning fucking face shots and untracked at all times. So much fun skiing with everyone, and greating meeting some new people as well. Its a shame we didnt get extra points in the vertical challenge for spending so much time in the white room. Big thanks to Rowen for bringing so much good food, and thanks to everyone for such a killer weekend and pulling together some bank for cancer research as well~
 
I am so exhausted but it was all worth it! The pow was AMAZING! Screw the vertical, we got the goods for sure. Haven't skied that since December! It was nice finally being able to meet some of you too :)
 
That was an amazing weekend. And if I do say so myself, Stevens was the PERFECT LOCALE for the get together. We need to get that crew back together sometime soon.

Love,

Ryan

PS For those of you wondering how to get out of Narnia, there is nothing you can do except for let it slowly fade away.
 
For all those interested, I am going to work on the video tonight and just put together a small edit. I will put it on Vimeo and then post it here.
