Unbelievable-Mt Baker's snow base topped 100" today!!!

[Trxster]

Just got back from riding (my wifes Vector Mt) on Baker. They had 3 days in a row with 16" snowfall and then last night the level dropped to about 2000 feet and it snowed 24"!!!! It was so deep up there in spots it was over your waist. Got to rally my wife's Vector around with the new 14.5mm Rollers and OPO spring (stock weights and rivets) and it felt great. Only got stuck 1 time because I got off course and had to miss a tree. Revs showed up at about 8600 at 3200ft so I figured it was pretty close. It did seem like there was a bit of slippage and I think it might be in the secondary due to the really soft spring that is stock. I think I'll swap out the Silver spring for Sunday's ride and see how it does. I was also thinking of throwing on my 45' helix from my RX1 (has 40' stock) but maybe 1 thing at a time. Anyway, what a day!!!!

The snow is really starting to accumulate in the Whistler/Pemberton area as well.

16" more last night and 6" of snow at my house!!!! That means Baker got over 86" in the last 4 days and about 130" in the last 8 days!!! Time to go riding!!!

Sweet. How much better do these sleds run down closer to sea level? We ride at near 11,000 feet, I would imagine the power would be much greater at 3,200 feet.
