interesting.
I want to say that the skiers did better than the boarders, not sure if that says anything or not...

Is that in/near Spokane? I'm from Bend and will be moving back home and would love to do something crazy like that at Bachelor or come up there to partake next spring. My buddy lives up there so it'd make for a fun weekend.

Jeremy,
For sure, the skiers had an easier time making it then the boarders. There were about 15 boarders and 5 skiers and almost all the skiers made it at least once but only 4 boarders made it all the way to the end. It seemed the boarders had a harder time with edge catching. I made it the 2 times I went and it seemed pretty easy, you just had to be hauling butt!

Scott,
Yes, Mt Spokane is only 45min. north of Spokane.

well, with my super limited snow skillz i bet i wouldn't have got anywhere near the right speed to do it at all. but i am a wimp for the cold anyway so i wouldn't do it.

Was nice to hear what I believe was Offspring playing in the background.

Yep, it's The Offspring from "Rise and Fall, Rage and Grace" the song is Half-Truism.

It's a pretty bad a$$ album!
