Balls Deep @ Kachess 03-15-09

[tomx]

Here's a couple pics from Sundays ride. Sooo deep. Spent a good six hours watching our tracks fill between lines. So insane. It was the ultimate boondocking day, at one point it was like 4-5ft of fresh in spots.

Breaking trail at 8am. This was the road.

Lushbomb claims first stuck of the day.

Lushbomb turns it up.

Sled2Shred cracked this slide off right before we were planning to head to higher steeper terrain. I'd call it a "sign." His turn was actually 10 feet or so to the left of that leftmost tree. Nothing serious, but enough for us to play it smart.

Plenty of partying going down in the trees for the Snowman.

Good 1 1/2+ feet in the lot by the time we returned. Unreal day despite only getting to play down low.

Looks awsome! Nice to see sled2shred out their tearin it up. . Hope you don't get BS from people saying it wasn't really 4-5ft fresh... Ive been their and said that and got a face full...

Correction: It "seemed" like 4-5ft of fresh. When I flip off my sled and sink up to my nuts, well its pretty frickin deep. No reason to argue of the particulars.

Was thinking about you guys Sunday morning about 6:30am... just after my riding partners for the day called and cancelled. Thought about heading to the schreibers lot solo and trying to join a group. Thought about doing the same at Gold Creek. Ended up dropping the trailer back in the driveway, grabbing the board, and hitting up Stevens Pass elsolo. $62 lift ticket and only rode for 2hrs - kinda lame but hey the snow was good.

i'll argue with anyone on the 4 to 5 ft.. the wind was blowing in spots and it was clearly drifted into more than 4.. average was well over 3ft.
tried getting a snowboard line in and found the snowman and i hiking in over ballz deep (i'm 6foot) more than 500 yrds to the pick up zone.. i can't remember the last time i had to walk/hike down a 30degree slope in powder while carrying my snowboard. INSANE! after a nice sweaty hike out. it was back to sledding the rest the day.. and it was good. just stay in the trees and on the throttle, the downhill face shots and carves were both blinding and freaking rad! submarined myself a few times off some drops, don't think i've had a day like this yet in my short career sledding thus far.... great day MTX, sled2shred, the snowman, and the rest the crew out there with us..

i got no rad pics.. i only took crappy ones.. in need of a new point and shoot..

I drove through that bit of sluff that slid and barely made it must of piled POW 8ft tall. Never seen it snow so hard. The POW was anywhere from 3-6 feet and falling at a rate of up to 3"/hr.

 

[eazyduzit509]

WooooW! sounds sweeet. Epic pow anyone? Im callin it!

 

[eazyduzit509]

You gonna be up at baker for the BSO Sled2Shred?

 

[SLED2SHRED]

Im not sure for it will be Chaos. How about you? I will if you will.

 

[snow-junky]

I was at G.C. yesterday and the pow was insane.Top 5 ever for me in Washington.Its pretty cool to submarine your sled and barely hear that full throttle, piped out 1000.I think I feel the 24hr flu commin on real soon,I need some more of that pow.

 

[eazyduzit509]

Me and my dad WILL be their. Were booking the hotel soon and will stay the night friday and get up early saturday, to be at the snowbpark by around 8. Hope to see everyone up their! Enough thread jacking for one day... sorry...

 

[MOONMAN]

Take yesterday... Add 16"! Today was deeep! couldn't see chit though.

 

[TWOSTOKED]

I was there and yes it was a good 4 feet in some spots. Saw you guys behind Swan lake, I was on my black M, Buddy on his mesh hood Polaris and my Daughter on the red Viper ( surprised we got her up there but she did good ) BTW that MTX sure sounded sweet.

 

[Flakey]

You guys are making me excited!



And mad I didn't put a 159" on my sled this year....
