method9455 Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 lucky ass mo-fo. So by March you'll know where to find the best lines for powder, and where the best nightlife is right? Cuz i'll be asking for that shit. Since they just got ranked #1 in park again I'll have to hit up the park too, although I'm not sure about Kings Crown, but the 2nd from the hardest looks like the perfect size stuff for me. I also want to hit up the Canyons, especially their natural halfpipe and their wide open tree skiing. And of course I'll hike Jupiter Peak a few times although I'm staying in bounds while I'm out there. Quote

kmudrick Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 i leave tommorow. PASR is always welcome to crash at my place. goodbye Pa hello Ut Have fun. One of my best friends moved out to SLC last year - he was practically laughing at me every time I gave him a "report" of my days at the Creek, while he was experiencing weekly pow days I went to visit last January and it was the best week of riding I've had my whole life.

gcleary47 Posted October 27, 2006 Author Report Posted October 27, 2006 i arrived in park city on sunday after my ten day voyage across the county. time for the good shit. it snowed here on wed. 4-5 inches. late nite picnic table session. we had 2 tables. one angled up, 3 foot gap to down angle table. nothing was held back. first session of the season i was doing doing 270's, switch front boards, different switch ups, spinning on and off. it has been a good start to the season. they are blowing snow on the main trail. think they plan on opening around november 17th. more rail sessions to come.

Dan- Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 I'd hope there was alot of detours. PC is about 2200 miles give or take which would take 33 hours driving 65 Quote
Dan- Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 My friend has done abington to southern cali in something around 45 hours. No stop obviously. Quote
skifreak Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 I could never drive cross country Quote
Dan- Posted October 28, 2006 Report Posted October 28, 2006 (edited) I could never drive cross country I've been thinking about a much longer drive then just cross country. I wanna make it to cali, drive through tahoe. Then drive all the way up to alaska. I heard thats the most beautiful drive you will ever experience. Edited October 28, 2006 by KnuckleDragger Quote
method9455 Posted October 28, 2006 Report Posted October 28, 2006 I could never do that drive alone but with people, not so bad. Longest drive I've done so far was 5 hours without a stop alone. I could see a cross country road trip would be a sweet experience for a group of friends. i don't think i'd be rushing to get there though, how many times do you drive across the country in your life? I'd want to check some states out and there isn't that much snow yet. I've been watching the PC webcam a lot looking at the snow, I can't wait to get out there. Quote

poconoceancity Posted October 29, 2006 Report Posted October 29, 2006 It would be cool to drive from Alaskas to the terra del feugo...the southern tip of South America where Penguins live..than back to Allentown.. A teacher from my schools son tried to drive back from Costa Rica. He got turned back at the Nicaragua/Honduras border. Quote

sibhusky Posted November 18, 2006 Report Posted November 18, 2006 I could never drive cross country I didn't think I could, either. But it turned out that with a 6 disk CD player, I could go 10 hours or so, with just stops for quick meals. Recently, I drove a truck from Denver back to home and it wasn't as bad as I expected (only had a radio). I think the big issue is the weather. If the weather is fine, it's not so bad. But one time I took 10 hours to go from Whitefish to Red Lodge in a blizzard. What a nightmare. It felt like months. I was terrified the last 50 miles and was counting down each .1 mile and recalculating how much longer it would be. The road was completely obliterated with windswept snow, there were no street lights, and no other cars on the road. All there were were mile markers. I kept aiming between each pair to find my way. It kept taking longer and longer. I've never been so happy to reach the end of a journey, EVER. Quote
Dan- Posted November 18, 2006 Report Posted November 18, 2006 You also have beautiful scenery out there to look at while driving, which to me, would help alot. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted November 18, 2006 Report Posted November 18, 2006 You also have beautiful scenery out there to look at while driving, which to me, would help alot. and open roads Quote
sibhusky Posted November 19, 2006 Report Posted November 19, 2006 You also have beautiful scenery out there to look at while driving, which to me, would help alot. Actually, there's a whole lotta nothing in eastern Wyoming. Quote
