So the NWS is calling for blizzard like conditions on the mountain and 35mph wind down here in the valley? Any of you down jacket owners want to hit the airport for some nigh time sk8kiting if it stays dry?

"sk8-snow-kiting"

I've got 2 snow-skates...

Tabor, Rocky Butte, .........where else can we go ride an inch of snow....?

Strachen, lemme in on the partayyy!! Can I crash it.?

yeah, looks hella wet. If Tabor gets snow we are taking the winch up there. Honestly, it sounds like it is going to be hella nasty on hood tomorrow, nasty enough to avoid driving up there anyways. Where is the unicorn anyways?

Council Crest. . .Gman's pad can be the warming at the base of the hill so to speak. Get the spanish coffee makings ready.

No, but really, Council Crest Park at the top has some steep grassy areas for ripping and a nice view to boot. Probably at least 300' of shredding.
