November 20th, Snow Lake with the pup
« on: 11/22/10, 10:49 AM »

Took my dog up to the lake on Saturday. Conditions were stable. Lots of people due to the nice day. Great turns going down. Still need a bit more snow to be able to ski more of lower Snoqualmie Mountain area (12"?). Everyone, meet Sasha. She is awesome.

 Try spraying her with PAM cooking oil before touring... it will help keep snow balls off her.
She is adorable.

She's going to be a total powder hound. 

Just make sure she doesn't poach your untracked lines  Wink

Scotsman, are you sure this isn't some kooky Jack London 'The Call of the Wild' idea of yours... like prep the potential emergency meal prior to entering the backcountry?

It actually sounds brilliant, although I bet my dog would insist on spending the day licking at the buttery goodness imbedded in her fur and not want to tour at all.

Tony she is beautiful!!  She must meet Shasta, they will have a hoot in the snow.  Hope to be skiing with you soon.  We'll get DC out to break trail, he and I and some friends hit Crystal on Sat. good times but needs a bit more snow, got a few core shots.

Or don't wash your dog. I only wash mine if he rolls in shit or something. Snow doesn't stick to them very well if they are not "clean".

Cool looking Pup. My Golden Lab's favorite sport is skiing by far.

Thats funny -- 'cause after I wash my dog, she always goes and finds a rotting roadkill carcass or something similarly hidieous to roll on and get herself smelling the way she likes.
