Dong Homez Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I'll be at Kirkwood this Sunday. Not sure if I'll be driving my car or taking my buddies Audi. Everytime I've been to Kirkwood this year, I've seen at least one LGT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime I've been to Kirkwood this year, I've seen at least one LGT. I've decided to go on Sunday instead of Saturday, so I might see your LGT up there. I'm not sure if I'm going to take my truck or the LGT though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subaru is the official car of kirkwood. http://www.kirkwood.com/winter/directions.php Looks like so far I might be headed to Heavenly on saturday or sugarbowl on sunday, depending on which group of friends the GF decides to head with.

j0ebert Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I was there from 12/30 - 1/2... just missed that monster storm. =( Stayed right next to Heavenly but rode 2 days at Kirkwood. That place is awesome even before that monster storm, I can only imagine now. Saw lots of Subies, but mostly 2.5is a few WRXs and I think 1 GT. This weekend is Mammoth! This is shaping up to be a good season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j0ebert Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Nope. Mine is Silver also but I was in a 01 Tacoma TRD the whole time up there. Tahoe was quite the new years experience; that street they blocked off was insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelvrick Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Saw a bunch of outbacks and older legacies on the way up 50 friday night and back today around 3 but didn't think any of them were you guys. Did see a grey spec b in the parking lot of Horizons hotel, 3rd floor, across from the elevator. I was leaving when I saw it, didn't catch any other details.

Dong Homez Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I saw three LGTs at Kirkwood yesterday. I had a blast. It was my best boarding day ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sactojesse Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 I saw three LGTs at Kirkwood yesterday. I had a blast. It was my best boarding day ever. Damn! I didn't see another LGT there besides mine. Saw a lot of WRXs though. Did you happen to see my silver LGT wagon there? I was in the main parking lot that's past the main lodge.

Dong Homez Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 Did you happen to see my silver LGT wagon there? I was in the main parking lot that's past the main lodge. I was looking for it, but didn't see it. All I saw was sedans. My buddy ended up driving his Audi from Jackson to Kirkwood. We saw a crazy accident on 88. An over turned Chevy S10 with the cab crushed in. The driver was lying next to the car with a blanket over him. Looked like he was either dead or in shock. I hope he made it.

Tocsin Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I think I'm going to do Kirkwood this week. I was going to go this past week but got sick and didn't want to make it worse with a 12-14hr day of driving and boarding. How was it Mr. Homez?

Dong Homez Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Conditions were awesome. It was my best boarding day ever. They were doing avalanche control on the backside, so the other lifts were a bit crowded. I was still able to get 9 runs in. They have a ton of snow up there. I can't wait to go back.

Dong Homez Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 2008 Never Summer Titan. How much was it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 $500 shipped. I did find some marginally better deals, but not from anyone who still had the 165 wide (Titan TX). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 The forecast for late this week is shaping up nicely: http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/warnings.php?wfo=sto&zone=CAZ069&pil=XXXSPSSTO&productType=Special+Weather+Statement There's lots of little storms coming in, but the key line is: "A MORE SIGNIFICANT STORM MAY BE POSSIBLE ON SATURDAY OF THIS WEEK." Snowforecast.com is translating that into 32-40" for Kirkwood on Saturday: http://www.snowforecast.com/californiafcst/kirkwood.html Now, I don't fully trust their accumulation predictions, especially this far out, but the point is they think it's going to be big. Sunday should be nice. Very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whobaru Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 This arrived yesterday: http://www.ihavethememo.net/pics/titan_tx.jpg Can you say "stoked?" I demoed a never summer and it was so stiff I couldn't carve very well, but it blasted throught the crap like it was nothing. What's the big deal with these boards? My Ride Control was less expensive and seems to work great. Is there something I'm missing out on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nKoan Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Made it up this weekend (finally). Surprisingly good snow for not having a storm in a week or so, and surprisingly small crowds considering it was Presidents Day Weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super.duper.BL6 Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 ^ dude....if i was in reno, i'd be up there every weekend, if not every weeknight!! Seriously though, i'm just jealous that it only takes you 20-30min out of Reno to get to the slopes. Hopefully i'll be able to be suddenly "sick" and make it up during the week after this new series of storms hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
