Mt. Baker Ski Area :: Snow Report

Who's in? I probably try to make it...got to do up the rack and snow tires.

I might try for it, provided I can take the day off.

Hmmmm.......I wonder if they will have a discounted pass rate for it? I might try to make the pilgrimage since I will have the day off. It's a 4 hour drive for me though, so hopefully I can find someone that would want to tag along.

Baker is already a really cheap day ticket. Big Sky was charging $60 for one run last year on opening day. With the weather coming in im betting its going to be deep. Get there early and jump off some shit for me. Bring your rock board baker isnt filled in with less than a 100" base.

Wish I could go. Will have to work but I am seriously thinking of skipping Thanksgiving to go to Baker.

I know Baker is already a good price for a day, but hey, one can hope for a better price, especially if the operations are limited.

Yup, there's always leftovers. I would do thanksgiving also but wife invited a bunch of folks over.

Yeah, this year we are supposed to go to the Wife's Aunt's house in Sultan. I don't think we plan to eat until 4 or 5. I am still trying to talk the wife into it. My son is already on my side, he is itching to get some turns in. We will see how strong her will is over the next few days.
