We'll visit PNW next spring and will be in Bend mid March :yahoo:

Who's in for a meet-up at Mt. Bachelor Sat 11th or Sun 12th March?

Yeah, atm, I try to concentrate our vacation days on spots which we cannot do anymore in some years... time is ticking, bones get old and butts get too comfortable quickly :laugh:

Each we did so far was different, had its own special greatness and was absolutely worth the trip: Alaska (the snow which makes you able to ride steeps and the endlesness), Colorado (tree riding and of course the company), Japan (light fluff and exotic of vulcano hiking n food and onsen!), and Svalbard (simply stunningly wild n remote).

Gonna need to visit the Arctic again, maybe give Greenland a try. The combination of snow, glaciers, wild coastline and arctic silver-black sea is breathtaking! Really a very special experience.

Yeah I'm really hoping they have the black Friday deal again 3 tickets for $100 but I know prices went up this year so I doubt they do it again. I'm still scared of those damn vents though lol

I'm on the lookout for the Mt. Bachelor 4-pack ticket. Did not get a newsletter yet, but hope they'll have it again.

During the first mini meet-up, I somehow ended up hanging from my bindings above this hole before @Rogue unclipped my bindings for me. This was a freak accident.
The 4 pack will pop up in the next couple weeks to month. I will alert the thread when I get the email.
@chomps1211 so is it true your coming out to Bend? You quit smoking yet???

What's a tree hole? Neni, everybody knows nothing scares you.

Edit. Tree wells, got it, yeah those can be troublesome if you run into a tree.

Tree wells.

I think i saw 4 packs on their website last night while noticing that the season passes were on sale. Might have been a 12 day pass though....
