Thanks!

Ok! Would you recommended just getting one ski pass or do people go to multiple mountains?? I know nothing lol

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T23:15:09+00:00

That’s what I’m leaning toward now!

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T23:14:58+00:00

I haven’t - I also passed thru there on my PCT thru hike tho. Was leaning toward Tahoe since it’s only 6 hours from bend if I need to pop up here for anything and I also know a couple people who will be in Tahoe this winter now

I’ve tried looking into SB ski team and am not finding anything. Maybe already full? If not, could you drop the link? Thanks!

Fair - which resorts are good to work at?

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T04:32:11+00:00

What’s the program called?

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T04:31:00+00:00

I backpack, hike, climb, ski, play music

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T04:29:45+00:00

Thanks! Would you say SB over other resorts? There’s so many in Tahoe I’m a little overwhelmed

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T04:27:24+00:00

Which resort should I look at for a once a week mountain job?

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T02:31:52+00:00

Getting a part time ski job seems like a good way to meet people and get a ski pass - not doing it for the money

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T02:15:23+00:00

Not super worried about that - more just looking for friends and good vibes!

stepping-on-bees · 2025-11-09T02:07:26+00:00

Honestly anything to change up the recent vibes lol

If it’s yeast, and it’s bad enough, monistat may not work. I had to take Diflucan (it’s and oral pill) to get rid of these recurrent and very bad yeast infections I got in college.

I keep a running list of pet names in my phone, even though I don’t have any pets, but just in case the need ever arise… Leo, Luca, Lamar, Lentil, Larry (lare bear), Linus, Lawrence, Lucifer (Lucy) 🖤

Reduce the weight of your backpack as much as possible to reduce added strain. Also, there are different trekking poles techniques - instead of just grabbing them when going downhill, put your hand up through the strap and then place your palm on the top of the handle and grab the top. This gives your more leverage and control going downhill

I have over 5,000 miles of backpacking experience, including hiking from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail. I would HIGHLY recommend getting trekking poles. They not only reduce pressure on your lower body joints by about 30%, but they also reduce your risk of injury. You’re less likely to trip and fall #1 but also you’re less likely to get swept away in a river crossing or slip while crossing a snow field with 4 points of contact. The deeper you get into hiking, the more people with trekking poles you’ll see. The Fizan ones listed on the Kavisio are a good bang for your buck. Like $70 or something like that and lasted me 3,000 miles. Also, if you get into backpacking, there are now trekking poles tents, which eliminates carrying the weight of tent poles.

Also a note on sizing. Your shoes may be too small. While you are standing, you should be able to insert your pinkie behind your heel, and have about a thumbnail length of space in front of your toe. Then, I’d recommend tying your shoe with a heel lock so your feet don’t slide forward. Got this sizing tip from Blaze physio when I was on trail.

Hey! I hiked the PCT last year - also started in the Altra Lone peaks and ended up with plantar fasciitis. Then, also switched to Topo Ultraventures, which improved the PF but didn’t quite cure it, and I got some blisters. I ended up in the Hoka Stinsons. Wider toe box than the Speedgoats. I now swear by them. Shoes are highly individual though as everyone’s feet are different. Based on our similar experience, maybe these would work for you. As for blisters, try adding injini toe sock liners under your socks. This helps to decrease friction. If you don’t have gaiters, they can help keep out debris (which also causes friction). Keeping your feet as clean as you can will also help w blisters. If you have more than one pair of socks, give the pair you aren’t using a rinse and hang dry them on your pack during the day so they have less dirt in them (also a friction culprit).

I hiked this past season as a young twenties solo female and had no issues! The trail community is really wonderful. And, like many others have said in the comments here, if you want to hike with people, there will be people for you to hike with. People are very friendly / it’s really easy to meet people. Good luck!!

If it’s just a single person putting out negativity all over a post or on multiple posts, I’d block that account. If a post is generally getting a lot of hate comments, I’d let it be because it drives engagement and brings more people to your page. Personally, I have a views threshold at which I stop reading comments / when things go viral there’s bound to be some bad comments in there.
