Is There Snow to Slide On?

Where is there snow to slide on?

I'm in Oregon right and Mt. Hood looks good from a distance although up close it looks rather sparse.

(Mitch from TelemarkTips.com dropping a knee this past Friday on Mt. Hood)

While I opted for a road bike, hiking shoes and golf clubs over my skis for this trip to Oregon, I've still got another week to get a July ski day and to keep the ski streak going. It's the motivation for another ski day that I may be lacking.

Aside from Mt. Hood, where are you going to get turns in for July and August to keep the ski streak going? Is there snow to slide on in your neighborhood?

Okay, skiing after this would make me officially deranged. Look for Mountain Bike HelmetCasts to begin next week.

My Denial

Should have some HelmetCam footy later this week, but I had to share this photo...

I call this photo, "Denial"

Photo taken: July 5, 2008

I can't help myself...I'm addicted...

What an awesome way to end the season! Pond skimming, slush skiing, and chutes defined by bushes. Doesn’t get much better than that!
