Its really fun when there is pow. Super mellow lots of ducking into trees and whatever. You are basically just going as fast as the flat slope will allow you to go but its fun.

Yeah pretty much this. Not super interesting. Groomers are fun to bomb.
And the doughnut hole is pretty much lift accessible now.

i like the cliff on donut hole and mach drop but i feel like the expansions only real good thing is making the lift line shorter on the face

Mach drop blows dick. Flattest, most treed-out landings. Only cool place in the expansion is the far west end out the ridge on the cat track. But it's super short and gets skied out fast. The only place I want to be on a pow day at White is west of the ridge and Roller.

The expansion is fun, flat in spots like everyone says. I have had a blast back there on powder days but other then that its pretty lame and mellow. The groomers are fun to bomb and there are some nice hidden hits.

true true if you know of the hidden runs it makes the expansion worth it, if you jusat stick to groomers it gets boring

i would highly reccommend to anyone that goes here to check out a real mountain. ski patrol are fucking tools that think they are cool because they "own" the mountain

i've never had a problem with patrol there. i've never had a problem with anything at white pass in general, except kids falling down in front of the lift

i was with my friend and i was snowboarding and we both jumped over those orange ropes they have on cascade by the cliff. he decieds that since im on a snowboard i dont deserve my pass anymore but he doesnt care about my friend doing it. i wasnt even a dick about it i just said that i didnt know and i wouldnt do it again and he just asks to see my pass and then takes off

i could be wrong, but usually jumping over orange ropes is the wrong thing to do.

Those ropes are there to keep you from wasting the good stashes and saving them for me

Well no shit. Those are there so you don't land in the gaper bottleneck that is that cat track. Just stop being a pussy and send Cascade Cliff. It's much more satisfying. Trust me.

I heard if you front flip the gate at What & Tucker they will love you forever. I watched it happened last year and my buddy got his pass pulled for 2 weeks.
