Ummm FKNA! That sounds awesome!

We are definitely doing a sushi night btw. That way we can acclimate Ed to the fine dining experience of uncooked fish...

Kyle, fuck yeah, thanks mang for offering. I am psyched to get out on some of those Crystal lines you get us drooling over all the time.

Powslash, you too man.

Looking forward to getting out with the PNW crew! :rock:

Don't worry Ed, it's not all raw.There will be some smoked salmon and boiled eel.

I'd be happy to help out showing around (crystal or baker) assuming I don't have to work. Also if anyone needs a place to stay in Seattle we've got an extra room.

Whats going on out there weather wise? I hear there is rain. We don't like rain. Rain is bad. Did you not get the memo RE: lots and lots of powder?

Seriously though, whats up? Is it raining like Noaa says?

Yes unfortunately it is raining at the moment. The snow level is hovering in the 4500'-6000' range which means rain at the base of the ski areas. Was going to head to crystal to ride lifts today but just looked to miserable to get in the car and go hopefully i made a bad call and it's actualy good up there.

Your reply jcocci makes me feel better. Hopefully the snow levels start dropping once again...

Also you've still got 2 weeks before you arrive so a lot can happen in that time.

Crossing my fingers for an Alaskan cold front to make it's way down your direction...

Crappy rain. Going out to check the damage today.

Like John said about the weather, I wouldn't sweat.... but maybe bring your kayakes, and fishing and rock climbing gear.

did some lift served at stevens past couple of days. went from wet to dry pow in 24 hours. was pretty good on the back side in wind sheltered areas. not half bad out of them. snow pack fully intact. like 40" to 80"+ from what I seen. riding was pretty fun, few to several inches of rigth side up increasingly denser snow and some crusty wind blown spots.

how do you guys feel about corn riding?

actually, while it isn't the best snow right now, condtions are decent in the alpine. especially above 6g. stable enough to do just about anything. weather looks to be more of teh same with high FL's all week.

problem. I broke my board yesterday. Do any of you have a spare? If not, I know of a few rental options.
