Can't ditch work :(

My girlfriend was up today. She said there was about 6 inches of soft and loose on lower heather, and it was snowing pretty good throughout the day. Tomorrow is probibly going to be very nice.

Arrrgh! I am ready to be done with grad school in Seattle and working in Portland again, thank you very much. (With a nice boss that turns a blind eye to my persistent absenteeism on powder days, of course.)

Well, hope those of you that can make it up there have good turns.

I didnt get there till 9am and rode cascade most of the morning and left at noon. Where were you riding at ? I met 2 guys from hood river on alpine setups but never saw you. They were riding Shooting Star mostly . It was quite nice, espeicially in between the park jumps there were building off texas trail (it was closed-poached it) .

I had a great day in the powder on wednesday too with Jason and Mark . It was pretty amazing to 16+ new in mid april :D
