TAY Hall of Fame - online edition

I'd like to use this thread to collect a list of links or thread highlights to posts that you think should be in the TAY Hall of Fame - online edition...

There are some truly classic trip reports, posts and threads that have appeared here over the last 15 years and I would love to hear from those who still frequent here, and even those who are new... What are some of your favorites posts?

I know that this web site, the prospect of deep powder in winter, and glorious spring skiing has inspired at least some folks to move to or frequent Washington, and anything you found on this web site that might have inspired you is also welcome on this thread!

Thanks,
Chris

Depends on the metric.

Been lots of spectular trips, photos, adventures,,, it would be hard to choose. But a one hit wonder makes a hall of famer not.

I've formulated my own list of personal hero's, local icons, and people that I think add that extra something special to our community. Did not have to put much thought into this one. Below is one of the more inspiring reports I have read, from a true turns all year hall of famer. Match this guy for longevity, passion, and grit...

First thought was that the site could do with less looking in the past and promoting individuals... then opened up the trip report and couldn't help but agree that he represents the best of TAY.

Well, I'll make a contribution.  I've skied powder on Table mountain in September but, preseason, when I get that first inkling of stoke I always go back and look at this post; Colman Glacier Oct 5, 2007.  www.turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboardi...dex.php?topic=7892.0   Kind of an ugly link but thats the best this luddite can do.  What a great thing we have here in Washington (or BC too)

And Yup, Zap is an inspiration.

You're admitting that the search function doesn't work very well? I'd like to see RonJs cover of the rolling stone thread that featured tay crossovers making the cover of Telemarktips.

We've also lost some posters over the years like Benman and Telemon. Maybe some kind of tribute to those who have passed yet passed on stoke as well.
