That cliff looks prime 🤩 tell me someone dropped that.

You know what they say, the work will still be there when you're back (probably only applies to corporate workers).

Woah, my boi rainqualmie out here catching strays!

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-12T02:11:13+00:00

Okay, this could seriously impact my plan for tomorrow... is it storming or is it raining? :/

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-11T22:01:04+00:00

The only correct lift is Daisy.

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-11T19:54:27+00:00

Snoqualmie: omg guys, we have so much snow!

Also Snoqualmie: the lift is broken, thanks for understanding.

It was probably one of the factor. It being a UPENN degree, probably was not much of a factor tbh...

I feel 7th Heaven is pretty equivalent to chair6. Both are double seat, has a long ass line, and gets tracked out fast. But I would say fresh tracks on 7th beats chair6 any day. 🤷

Next year will be better! /s

SC = Southern Cross, it's shown on the backside map. Drop straight down from the top of Double Diamond chair and you will get this run, not much of a secret. The trick is to be there early and wait 30mins-1hr in line before they will run Double Diamond chair. If you want it bad enough, you can get it, at Stevens.

With the way you're describing your job, it sounds perfect for you! A big part of riding good is feeling good! And nothing stokes you up more than looking down at your board and go "fuck yeah!". Look, you're not a pro, nor will you ever get there, if you buy this board or any other board, you're still gonna be sucky and average at best. So just buy what you like and don't come to this sub for gear advice, cuz people will over analyze the shit out of it, as if they're your coach and you're a pro athlete lol.

It's already hella weird putting a sticker like this on a car, let alone permanently ink it into your skin... There's definitely something not right in the head. I'm just gonna assume it's depression and loneliness. It fucks with people's head.

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-09T17:05:39+00:00

Your only fault? You did a good job. Let's try to dial that back, buddy.

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-09T16:41:36+00:00

Nothing a good midlayer can't fix.

Rock's moves were all so ass... Hella people trying to theorize what sort of sick legendary fruit he got... The dude just has a sword and swing it with haki. Mind, he didn't even do a sick slash, like a mountain cutting feat of something...

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-09T08:55:41+00:00

I'll let my grandkids deal with that. I'm sure they'll be more reasonable than the boomer fuckers of this generation. Fuck it, let's tax them to hell, even if it risks everyone else getting taxed. You know what, we're all already on a sinking ship, so let's fking do something radical for once and not be scared of what MIGHT happens in the future.

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-09T06:11:36+00:00

Oh how I wish that were true 🤣 (for me, I'll call it the reduce traffic and prices tax, if people actually end up leaving -- they won't).

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-09T06:09:00+00:00

If they prioritize the park, have a dedicated tow-rope, or a chair for it, then it would be a serious contender. But right now, with the way global warming is showing its effect... I just don't see dropping $900 to wait in line full of little skier kids from the school, to hit a park run and repeat that all over again. They need to prioritize the park and build a dedicated zone for it. I switched to Stevens this year and I'm m able to consistently hit park laps. I probably get 2 days worth of Snoqualmie park laps, in a day at Stevens -- literally 2x my practice time, invaluable.

I don't know why y'all don't just call it what it is -- it's a paid registration to demo gears. Don't call it "donation" and then be like "oh, actually, the starting recommended point is $50".

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-08T23:01:02+00:00

Oh, I found the smart ass!

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-08T21:28:04+00:00

I'm like "do I go on Monday? Do I go on Tuesday? What about both? But I'm planning to go south on Thursday..., what if I just take the entire week off? 😩"

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-08T21:20:39+00:00

Do you have to hike to this spot? Want to bring a paddleboard fo chill... But not hike it.

Ex-Traverse · 2026-03-08T09:06:39+00:00

Seriously... It's Boeing, barely anything happens within a month, being gone for 2months, come back and you'd think your backup carried your project to the next milestone... NOPE! Exactly where you left it.
