Yeah, we've been getting dumped on!!!!!!!! I think we are at about 150% of normal! 
Much better then last year. Should be riding well into June this year, maybe even July, if this spring it stays fairly cool.
Baker is one of my stomping grounds. Heading up there tomorrow.
Hammer, if you decide to head up this way, let me know. We'll show ya around.
One thing about Baker though, its pretty weather sensitive. Meaning if it's snowing/raining, the mountain really socks in and you can't see to go anywhere. If it's clear out or high clouds, its one of the best places to ride! If the weather is iffy, then we go to other local areas where you can see better.

Will do, right now, it's a toss-up.
McCall:
The Upside: I get to hang with my dad.
The Downside: Riding month-old hardpack.
Baker:
The Upside: Fresh-deep-pow
The Downside: Don't get to hang with my dad.
Just checked the 10-day for McCall and it looks like the snow will be returning next weekend. If it contiunues to lay down fresh on top of the established base it will be great. I'm going to make reservations now for McCall and hope for the best.

Yeah, I hope McCall gets dumped on soon. I just found out we are commited to the house we're renting in McCall. Past the point of no return, $$ wise.
Still looking forward to going though, even if the snow is just "ok". It will be good to see everyone again!!
A week off in McCall = riding all week!!
Same week off at home= doing a bunch of crap around the house, and riding one or two days.
Weather was awsome at Baker yesterday! A ton off sleds though, tracks everywhere. Had to pop over to some little known areas for some fresh snow.
There was I guy up there with a couple of Snow Hawks. He let me take the 800 for a spin. First time I had ever been on one, sure is different. Felt really awkward and heavy at first, untill your on it for awhile. I can see how a guy would be worn out, after riding one all day. But they sure can cut a side hill!

I went out on Thursday. It was suprisingly good riding. We definately could use more snow, but even after the dry spell we were still able to find some fun, unmarked, spots.
Reservations made...Arrive Feb 17th pm...Depart Feb 20th am.

I don't think any of us will be able to eat if we see Ray in a pink speedo.
I will be there for sure. Can't wait. It is getting close. If you need any help w/B-fast let me know.
Hey how is the snow looking?

Put me down for 2 for sure. Possible couple more. I'll try and find out about the others and let you know.
If the food starts to run low, then just have Ray put that speedo on.
Just warn me first, I want to be the first one out the door. I want to be able to see, for when it's time to ride! Thanks Guys !
If you need directions PM Ray, we have moved to new house. I dont think we will run out of food !!!

You are WAY to organized Hammer, must be an engineer
I'm not sure if we are going to have enough people to be that organized. Due to weather we have lost some people. We can probably get away either one or two groups. I am open to whatever though.
PLEASE let us know if you are going to be here for breakfast so we know how much to cook.I have maps to my house that I can email out if you PM me your email address. Oh, yeah what time do you guys want to meet for breakfast? 8:30?
Is anyone besides Jon going to want to ride on Friday?
BTW it rained in the valley today, but the tops of the hills did turn white. There is snow in the forecast tonight and chances of snow all week. CROSS YOUR FINGERS!!!!
