Oregon and Washington BS thread

Warren Miller is a ski film. If you go to watch it (they show is Nov-Dec I believe) then they give you a coupon code with a bunch of deals. The deals change every year but this year they have buy 1 get 1 free for Whistler, free lift ticket to Big White, free lift ticket to White pass, free lift ticket to Bachelor, and so on. They also range for each region.

We have been staying at the Montebello town homes. It's a house with a private hot tub. You're in the village but not right in the middle. It's a ten-fifteen minute walk to the gondolas. I like it because it's not very loud at night and you get a private hot tub. We've stayed in a few other places but we haven't stayed anywhere were you ski in and ski out to the lifts.

 

The ice storm rages on...slicker than greased owl shit out here on this end of the state. Hope I don't get a flat, it would suck to chip the spare out.

 

Does Portland ever get ice like that?

 

2008. Let me find those photos

 

Here ya go. This was the snow/ice storm of 2008. I think we ended up getting 12-18" of snow over a week.




This was how thick it was on the ground in places

 

I don't think you could chip that free. You need a blowtorch and heat that free.

 

Yeah, I remember that storm. I had studded tires AND chains on! lol

 

Looks fun.

 

I cross country ski'd in a park off Skyline that day. Stupidest idea ever, lol. My ankles hurt so bad.

 

I bet

 

I need a new spare. 285-75-16 or 17 Mine is starting to dry rot and it needs to go. Also a rim with 4.75 or more back spacing would be nice too. Any of ya'll got something laying around let me know. My current spare is on the stock rim and it rubs my UCA upfront a little when I put it on (no good).

Also I have a set of TRD off road rims with the stock 265's on them with about 45% tread left. How much could I sell them for? No TPS

 

As far as the rims... I recently picked up a set with about that tread and the rims were scratch free for $250 from a guy in Lake oswego. But typically I see them go for about $300

Do you happen to still have the lugs for them? I'm looking to sandblast and powder coat the ones I just got and still need the lug nuts...

 

I have the lugs but I need at least 6 for my spare

 

Dang so u prolly couldn't part with them. You know anyone with some spares?

Also you may look into selling the rims individually... I've seen a few posts on here of people looking for just one for their spare. Just a thought

 

I am getting new tires soon. I have 285/75/16's on now.
1 is almost bald, but the other 3 have a little bit of life left in them still.

I am going with 255/85/16's, otherwise I would use them for spares myself.

They are BFG ATTA's.

 

Its pretty windy in bend tonight. Frak..

 

Do you have some dance ritual you snowgods do to simmer down the wind?

 

Anyone have pics/vids of their Tacos playing in the snow after the "storm". I found a nice snowy mud patch near my house. Who knew rallying around undeveloped commercial property could be so much fun...for about 10 minutes anyway

That was some pretty big air. I would like to try that in my '06, but it's probably not going to happen.


What do you guys think of my new avitar?
