Just let me know what you'd like and I can get you a price. Easiest if it's one big order but I can do a couple smaller too. They will just ship to me and then to you or send directly to you if it's large enough.

My next minus33 code comes in next thursday.

Still haven't heard from my virtika guy. I'll call him today.

JP, do you have any other aggregate sites like Outdoor Prolink? I qualify for them because of my job so I got signed up and approved.

ExpertVoice but you already have that one. Outdoor Pro is the hidden gem because it gets hit a lot less than EV. I just saved or cost you a ton of money

Now you can tell your wife "but it's on sale".

Finally got my Salomon, Atomic, Armada code!

Can't find my marker code - any other brand or model you'd like to price? If you go with the Pivot 15s in 115 you'd be all in before tax and shipping at $534.98 vs. $1,178.95 so just about 55% off MSRP.

Only 9 sets left in a 173….

At keystone today, making laps with my son and his cousin on schoolmarm. I was able to sneak away up to the new bowl they just opened this year. Was pretty thin in a lot of spots but if you're paying attention it wasn't too bad. Can't wait to finally make it to Vail next week, even if not under ideal conditions.

Not sure where that emoji icon came from.

If you're at a dead end with your Virtika rep let me know if they have some bibs on there.

Holy crap. That is literally like half the price of my local shop.

Pivot 15s would be awesome actually. I might just grab a pair of those new Daymaker Tekadapters for the little amount of touring I plan on doing.

Does it ship direct to me? No sales tax in Oregon, so that would be ideal.

Thanks again for looking into that for me. Just got off the mountain. Did some night skiing with my 5 year old before this warm rain comes through next week.

They are solid but I personally prefer the dynafit ST rotation 14 or Radical. Armada and Salomon are the same company so the difference between their equipment is minimal. Most people don't know that one

SPY+ has some great low cost frames and lens combos. Glade as well. Anon is another solid one.

Make sure you get a high light and a low light lens.
Lt. Joe Bookman

Glade has some pretty nice ones for decent pricing.

I have several sets of the Outdoor Master ones on Amazon that I use for guests since they go on sale for $30-$40 pretty often. They work fine in bluebird days. Where you'll find most cheap goggles/lenses struggle is in low light and low visibility days. They also will struggle in a heavy snow/rain day as they won't shed the precip as well because they don't use the coatings that the more expensive Smith or Oakley goggles do.

At least that has been my experience.

our entire family has this bag in different colors. It's not a super known brand but they're awesome and have held up being checked on flights multiple times

Unigear Ski Boot Bag, 50L Ski Boot Travel Backpack for Ski Helmet, Goggles, Gloves, Skis, Snowboard & Accessories https://a.co/d/0bpqp7Z


On a whim this morning (mainly because I didn't want to do work) I packed this bag to see how it carries. Very happy with it. Was room to shove an iPad in with my pants still not sure about my laptop. I unfortunately have to do a big presentation in the middle of my trip in a few weeks. Thanks for the rec.

Nice, glad you like it! My only (very) minor complaint is the way it carries with the skis in the straps on the side. Only time we've ever done that was dropping off my daughter's gear at school on Friday's for ski club.

I've done the laptop thing before, just put it behind my boots. Just have to be careful, maybe add another layer in there.

Have you been in Hood River the past week? The ice storm was no joke. Weren't you heading to Bach next?

We're getting over Covid, but hope to ski this Sunday at Meadows. Been a bummer month between work travel, the wind/ice/tree induced home damage and now Covid.

That ice storm was crazy. We wound up making it to Bluey Live last week in Eugene, but it got postponed. It was pretty wild driving through the area and seeing all the downed trees and power poles.

Hope your home made it out okay or you are able to get it repaired asap!

That damn ice storm screwed us up. We were supposed to go see Bluey in Spokane on Thursday and it got postponed to Monday of this week because they could get to Spokane. So I made 2 round trips to Spokane in 5 days.

It worked out though. Kids got to go ice skating for the first time.

Ah, we saw Bluey on Wednesday (originally scheduled for Tuesday). The reasoning they gave for not postponing it further was because they had to get to Spokane on Thursday. Funny that they wound up postponing that show anyways!

I was there on Wednesday night. Nothing of note minus the snow on the ground. I really enjoyed pFriem Family Brewers- great beers and excellent food.

I am in Bend now but held off on skiing again. Meadows was brutal on Thursday, easily 3x times harder than the last time I was there. I was skiing into the wind and wintry mix the entire time and the run conditions were messy in places.

So what does the crystal ball say about conditions in Telluride at the end of the month? Heading there the last week of Feb and it seems all of the latest reports are that their base depth is lagging way behind everywhere else even after a lot of snowfall a couple weeks back.
JustPanda

3 inches in the last 24 and 15 inches expected next Friday - Tuesday.

Sunday - Thursday of this week highs will be in the upper 30s so that's not good. They will need that snowfall. They are on a 38 inch base which is like 80% of average at this point in the season. No way to tell what late Feb will look like at this point. Overall, it's been a warm season. Not normally 39 in Telly in late January.

Not sure about Telly, but it's been melting off HARD here the last couple of days. Its been REALLY warm.

Edit to add: Vail is supposed to be 43 on Wednesday. So spring skiing conditions for a least a couple of days next week before the snowfalll hits.

High in the boat next Wed/Thur is 42. Can't recall the last time I've gone out when it was that warm…but I guess kids won't complain about being cold. Of course we leave Sunday when the next snowfall hits.
