Jay, Jaime, and myself set out this morning with an initial plan to ski at Sunrise today, but to our suprise, the gate was closed at the White River entrance. So, we continued on 410 a bit further to have a look at Chinook Pass. We were pleasantly suprised with the 2-3 ft on the ground there and decent coverage on the slopes just off the hwy.
We opted to Yo-Yo a nice little slope above the hwy offering 400 ft per yo. There was plenty of fresh to cut up and the snow was pretty fun up above 5800. After lap 5 we headed back down the truck where the brews were waiting in the snowbank and we celebrated our 24th month in style!

I didn't expect the snow to be that good after the reports we got in the parking lot. But it turned out to be a great day. Especially the post slide party with Snowdawg Jr. trying to railslide the tree.

If it's called common sense, why isn't it more common?

Alisa, yes we did park at the latrines. The run literally lead straight to them. How convenient, huh? It sure was a winter wonderland up there. Wish it was always that way! I can't help but post a couple more pics.

Nahh, the shrinkage factor was much too great under these conditions. I'll have to wait for the next naked-skiing season.
