Anyone in SoCal? Looking for a few buddies to ride up the local mountains. I have a 4x4 with snow tires. I'm a beginner rider, passed 4 hours of training. I would love to get more practice runs this season. Let's go!
I'm in socal. I'm taking a trip up to big bear this Friday. You plan on going up anytime soon? This is my 14th season, I'll ride with just about anyone.
I'm going to try and get a season pass. My buddy gets them comped from his work. Last year he had two extra all year and did nothing with them ... it sat on his desk until he told me about them in March!
We'll see. We usually travel for our trips but this year tryna have a kid so things are iffy. Mammoth is always available by car ...
anyone else end up going to HDHR? I ended up getting my Dual Mountain anytime pass :thumbsup: Plan on hittin up Summit on the super packed days, and get a few good pow runs in. Won some free shit while I was there, got some stickers, got drunk before hand. Good season opener
North San Diego here... just 10 or 15 mins south of Temecula off the 15...
Just got my Bear Anytime pass at HDHR this last weekend... anybody else out this way???
I usually go up with my little sister cause her car gets like 35mpg which is much better than my 8mpg guzzler but I have more free time than she does this time of year so always looking for more snow buddies...
Mountain High here(already got my season pass)! It ain't much but its close. I've looked into Bear and I can afford the dual pass easily but the drive, it's so much longer. Just to get there and back I would have spent 5-6 hours in a car. The last thing I want is to get in my car after a long day of boarding and being tired and sleepy and realizing....oh yea...you got a 2.5-3 hour drive back home(without traffic!). NOPE. Gas money ain't nothing, I'll toss tanks of gas at my car. I just hate doing multiple hour drives like that. Especially since I'll be going Fri Sat Sun every week, that drive would make me wanna kill myself after 2 months.
Like 120 miles, and Google maps pegged it at a 2.5 hour drive with no traffic. I already spent the money on the Mt High pass and there's no refunds so I'm pretty much committed to it. I will take the occasional day trip to Bear to play in their park tho, probably 1-2x a month.
Im sorry I think you misunderstood I said no problem Ill hook up some beers as long as you dont mind if I smoke my greens while you drink In a lot less words...
Yeah I'm out of northern OC. I have a few friends who have cabins up there, we party hardy. We blaze, drink....and some other stuff :laugh: I'll hit you guys up when we go up
ALOHA'z! New to snowboarding as well, im located near San Fernando Valley in Sunland, I would be down plan something:yahoo: actually kind of glad you guys are fairly new to snowboarding as well... this will be my first full season... I went twice during the beginning of the year and have been preparing all summer for this winter! So stoked to just be out there...
If it ever snows or if they ever start making it... Last year at least Bear had its opening day Today to be exact 11/14/12 this heat wave bullshit is killing me...
Bear is usually mostly man made we got a lake full of water and snow machines to make our fun all we really need is cold weather to make shit happen...
I got my dual season pass, though I do agree, it'd be nice having it while there is snow on the ground. I was out there last opening day, I'm dying. Any pre-season kick offs/parties?
Last year after Thanksgiving Snow Summit closed the following 2 weeks as the snow they had melted. Not even sure if they will be open Thanksgiving this year - hoping they are as we will be up there for 4 days. A few years back they didn't open until December 8th I believe. Thanksgiving the mountain was brown... :angry:
Well Mt High might be opening this weekend if the weather cooperates and it keeps snowing. They got 4-6inches last night with another predicted 3-7inches tonight. They are pushing for Sunday and gave it a "fair" chance they will open then but also mentioned that if we get a good dump tonight that Saturday is game too.
Anyone else gonna head down this weekend if they open?
Is mountain high really that despicable? I've never gone but I'm jonesing to be on the board again... Is the scene there that horrible that one would rather wait it out till snow valley or bear opens? Really curious… Im dying to go anywhere at this point feels like... but seems like Mt. High is almost unsafe like there are snowboard thieves and gangsters all around the way people speak about it.
Still debating if I should do a 5 hr trek to Mammoth for some half decent snow apparently. Not deep or vast but dammmm... I want to ride
