Thanks for the report. I like the second picture. Is that a picture of the pearly gates/hogsback/oldchute/etc. from the top of wyeast? Steve
Wow Ron, those look great! Are you already thinking of making another set, maybe more of a manaslu size?
Way to go on 100 months Amar. I enjoy reading your TRs."good to great snow conditions up high far outweighing the crust down low"Your description fits the Mt. Hood skiing conditions la...
Thanks for the invite for St. Helens, unfortunately or fortunately, my work situation has changed. The company I work for JUST increased my hours to 40/week. It will be nice to have the wo...
Hi Buell,I think Ron and I ran into you a bit below the hogsback. You had the split with dynafit toes and F1s? I was on the DPS boards.You didn't miss much by not skiing the old chute...

Nice work Rong! How heavy was the sled traffic on the road and what time of day did you start out? Were you on the road for a little less than a mile before you headed up to the saddle?&nb...
Nice work! Many people underestimate rip city peaks. Is Powel Butte next? Maybe after the x-mas storm.
Nice to meet you Joe. Sorry we didn't stick around to meet the others but we wanted to make it to the shelter before the system came in. Turns out we still were not fast enough. ...

Thanks Larry! Armed with some new knowledge, I hope my friend will feel comfortable getting out in the snow. The "report" was well done, it made sense to me. I also look fo...
Larry,A friend of mine that loves the outdoors has Raynauds syndrome and won't go snowcamping with me because of it. I've offered to carry extra batteries for his socks and gloves, but...
Thanks for the input. It looks like that was a good area for the conditions Saturday. But where else to go around the Hood?I got a deal for you guys, I'll break trail AND let you have...
That's super sweet pabloson. I love creative stuff like that!Hey snoslut, are you a coug? Where did you ski over there? Moscow mountain?

Way to go Telemon! Didn't Scotsman just get 4 years too? Anyway, hope to see you guys sometime this winter!
The wind seemed to be coming from the north, which seems a bit odd. Usually it is coming from the west. Hmm, not sure how reliable I am as a source, but that's what I recall.
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. Yeah, I'd like to meet up for a day trip. That's cool, I can break trail for you old guys, even though you all could probably smoke me!
