You must be fucking confused. Crystal mountain can suck my dick. Place is full of dickwads. Only at Crystal Mountain can I ride up the gondola (They fucking made us, fucking stupid thing) and some guy with H2O heli guide skis and a helmet/sunglasses is bitching about how the gondola doesnt have wifi service. If the gondola had wifi service id send that guy a text with a dick picture, stand up in the gondola and yell "HEY I NOTICED YOU LOVE DICKS, PLEASE SUCK ME OFF"~

Hearing they will pass out anal beads on Tuesdays to entice the weekend crowd to ski mid-week.

I'm there.

why do you need to rain on our parade? i never said it was going to stick and stay around, i just meant that it is the first time it is in the forecast, so winter is getting closer

alright, billy has put the idea in my mind, so let us all have a reality check:

October is a big tease. The first snows will melt. It is fun because it is getting close. That said, a lot of early snow may, in fact, be inauspicious.

Picture A:

A couple feet of snow gracing the slopes of Stevens Pass. October 24th. Epic season to come, right?

Picture B:

What is wrong with this? Prime pow and general ski season? It looks like July up there. Closed. Oh right, it snowed several feet in October...

We must always remain humble, or else the jetstream will shun us.


IT IS DELICATE, PEOPLE

Laugh now, but Grant and I will burn all heretics in the same fire sacrificial fires through which we give pineapples to Ullr. The heads of these heretics will be fitted with pineapple helmets before we use the cleansing properties of fire to purge the evil from their souls.

Yeah I heard this yesterday too. I heard they got like 8 more blowers and they are making snow up at Rex as well as at the bottom and shooting for a Thanksgiving opening. Not sure how much of that is truth, but there is obviously something going on.

I'm stoked as well. But I have to sell tickets on opening day, one of the downsides to working at the mountain. So I won't be able to shred until like 1 O'clock.

Yea, I'm done with ticket sales... going skiing after everything is tracked out = no bueno. Although weekdays there was usually still fresh snow no matter what time you go up... did you work up there previous years?

For better or for worse, the terrain at the mountain is becoming increasingly accessible... skins are nice, but realistically theres not that many places you can go anymore that aren't serviced by a chair lift *or at least a small traverse/hike away from the chairlift*, and that leads to most of the mountain being well chopped up by 11.30~ *on a weekend* which is about when you get off on an average day of ticket sales. I'm not trying to be too pessimistic, just saying... that's what happens

true, but you can always venture out even farther weather and snow permitting, if you know the area. Bullion basin and sourdough gap are dope.

They are having a park this year. One of my friends was bragging about getting on the park crew and he got offended when I asked him what park.. Ha they are just keeping all the jibs from last year. The park manager moved to Snoqualmie and they wouldn't let him take all the jibs that he built himself with him.
