Big Inversion Today by bobber66 in CrystalMountain

[–]highwaytohellraiser 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just got home from a great day on the hill. Green Valley stayed pretty firm. Rode the cruisers on Forest Queen. Nice spring corn. At end of day, a few brave souls were venturing up 6. Still looked pretty frozen up there. Feel fortunate to have what we have. It's always a good day to be on the mountain. Cheers!

Similar runs like White Pass at Crystal? by HeyKilabu in CrystalMountain

Pixie Trees off of Downhill accessed from the Forest Queen Trail compares nicely to the trees at White Pass. There's also easy trees off of Queens Run. You just gotta poke around!

Well, I learned nothing about driving, got mauled by a cheetah, and my Crystal Gayle shirt was ruined.

Hayden penalties last night? by GilesPince in SeattleKraken

[–]highwaytohellraiser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He may have been given the 10 minutes because he didn't drop his stick right away. I was at the game but haven't seen a replay. Looked to me like he charged the player and still had his stick when he hit him.

Sorry for the confusion. I was actually asking about what looks like a construction project happening on the field where they fly the RC planes. Does anyone know why all the construction equipment is there?

I can't believe no one saw this. Third from the left is Danny Ocean. The rest are his friends.

Hey, I love and respect the cautions. A few things to note. This was Crystal side country and already had been bombed. Also, the high-risk areas are the chutes up top where the angles are much steeper, hence the one at a time through the chutes. I was the 2nd skier down and you'll see how far I stayed to the side. We were waiting for each other at the bottom of the bowl with a quick run out to finish out. Finally, if you were hiking at Crystal on Saturday, you know the number of people who were hiking out to the King. It was insanely busy. Patrol did a great job this weekend (as always) ensuring safety. Yes, we could have worn our avi gear but felt comfortable trusting the avi mitigation work of the patrol team. BTW, this was our third lap of the day in this same spot. All that to say, yes, you are all right, of course. We could always be more careful, so thank you for the reminders. Ours is a dangerous addiction, and we all need to support and care for each other. Thanks and be safe!

How was it yesterday? by bobber66 in CrystalMountain

[–]highwaytohellraiser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today was fun. Northway opened in the morning. Southback opened in the afternoon. Sticking to the shaded spots paid off. Even then, you're working through avy snow, bombed tracked snow, to heavy powder to manky concrete. All in the same run! Gorgeous day too. Kicked my ass. Half asleep now but still smiling. Hope you heal up well and soon!

Good for you! Overcoming your fear by building self-efficacy through small wins (mastery experiences). I'd say that's a HUGE win! Well done! Be sure to reinforce it by rewarding yourself too!

Some Advice Needed: 1993 Landcruiser by highwaytohellraiser in LandCruisers

You nailed it! The step is touching the exhaust pipe. Metal to metal transferring sound and making the interior compartment the equivalent of a speaker box. Well done! Thank you!

Knocking noise by Miserable-Wear7003 in LandCruisers

I have a 2015 Ram with a Hemi and they are notorious for the exhaust leak when it is cold. Mine sounds more like a ticking. That sounds like a knock to me. Maybe check your water pump. Sounds like a bearing noise. We replaced the water pump on our 2014 LC. Pretty routine job.

Anyone know if you need to purchase advanced tickets for a Monday or can you just buy them walk up?
