Nicely done. If we get some more snow days, lets go explore the fields around scholls and tileflats.

Yeah, I checked it on Google. Looks like it has potential, but the snow coverage just isn't quite there. Gonna hope for some Gorge snowkiting Thurs. Lemme know if you wanna join Mark. Maybe shoot to leave from Beaverton around 10am. Depends on when Adam's thinking about going.

Looks like the weatherman got todays snow wrong. Can't head to the gorge today, Have plans around town. If we get more local snow this week I am in. Or next week I can travel.

Nice... i never knew how easy they were to relaunch on snow.
Next time you can try reverse relaunch. Just grab both leader lines all the way up to the flying lines. Make one longer then the other so that when it relaunches backwards it will flip to one side and get right into the hot zone.

hey sick pics Ryan glad u finally got them off the Gorge Performance computer. They are making everyone chain up in sandy tomorrow and the mt is going to possibly have too much snow to go shred. so if anyone wants to ride tmw let me know, my dad and i are in. Ryan if u head out to Willamette Park or your place over in hillsburrito give me a ring. ill be up late tonight and early tmw.

Are they actually going to enforce chaining up in Sandy? I drove up and rode Monday/Tuesday and no one bothered me. Saw the signs about traction devices required though...
