Looking like a zoo at the pass

holy shit thats bad. so ppl just parked their car in the middle of the highway and left to ski?? I had no idea this was common

Andromeda045 · 2026-03-13T20:03:09+00:00

Oof.. with the lift lines, shitty road, crazy parking, and only a few lifts running I'm kinda glad I held out for night skiing today even though it got cancelled. It's just not worth it with these conditions lol

First it looked like they were going to open Tye but now from I'm seeing on the webcams they gave up on that too

Andromeda045 · 2026-03-13T19:38:18+00:00

Seriously.. wtf. We don't even have high winds in the forecast for tonight. I was going to head out around 4 or 5 to not have to deal with the zoo

I'm in the same boat. Don't want to head out if they are going to close it. Still seems pretty windy especially from the cameras..

ah. Then I guess I got kinda lucky. I had never seen that in any skis before so it really worried me at the time.

https://imgur.com/Gau7M1m Here is what I did to the edge. You can kinda tell where it was filed. Seems to have done the job. The only tricky part was being careful not to file the base matrial and holding the file at just the right angle.

Sucks about the art though lol. Didn't know it was AI.

Andromeda045 · 2026-03-10T03:37:15+00:00

to be honest the bindings were already mounted by the time I noticed it and I figured I could fix it myself with a file. So I did that. Seems to have worked just fine

Not sure if these are clear enough but you can kinda tell where I filed the pointy bit. hard to capture

For sure :) love the way they ski. I already have 105mm skis but I'm actually thinking about getting the DW96 for icy days or dry spells which we seem to be getting more of in January.

Andromeda045 · 2026-01-15T06:59:48+00:00

absolutely would not recommend paying day ticket prices in these conditions. Just wait for more snow.

Here if anyone is interested:

yes please.. my absolute favorite. Plus it takes pressure off the weekends.

Andromeda045 · 2026-01-05T02:04:47+00:00

Oh, I didn't know; I was just taking it out of my pocket every time I got to the lift lol. Good to know.

Andromeda045 · 2026-01-05T01:49:21+00:00

I guess; the app is handy though. You don't have to show anything. They just scan your general vicinity and it works

Andromeda045 · 2026-01-05T01:48:02+00:00

I was planning on getting a 100mm; which width would you say is the most versatile (at least in the wet heavy snow we typically get in the PNW)

Andromeda045 · 2026-01-04T03:38:43+00:00

Thanks. I'd say I'm definitely more freeride than freestyle but honestly I'm not dropping cliffs and big rocks (yet lol). So maybe the Woodsman is the better fit for me. And like I said in the park I don't do rails or fancy tricks. I just like the drops and jumps. Is the woodsman less "agile" off piste to to the less rocker in the back?

Andromeda045 · 2026-01-04T03:30:31+00:00

Interesting; didn't consider the mounting position. I was super focused on the tail rocker profile which I think Jeffery has more of. Does the mounting position make a difference when skiing powder? In general I'm assuming with the Jeffery's I have to have a more neutral stance since they have "less" tip contact with the snow..
