Western Washington is getting busy. Time to stretch my wings and explore new areas. Stoked to see there is such an active community of backcountry users in Idaho!

Hey Matt! I just moved up to Sandpoint as well and I am also looking for touring partners. I have been skiing in the backcountry for a few years now living between Tahoe and CO but always still learning.

Ping me directly and we can coordinate a tour.

Fancy meeting you here "zmums"...

I'm a current U of I student who is going online after thanksgiving. I'll be working hard, so I'd also like to play hard! My schedule is flexible but I prefer weekdays. I'm excited to get more involved in this group (since now I have somewhere to crash.. *cough*z*cough*).

Moved back to Spokane from Sun Valley. Excited to tour around the area and find some great tracks. I am on Backcountry Ski Patrol in the Sawtooths, so if I can lend a hand with anything I am willing to help. Look forward to reading trip reports.

Hi, New member here. I'm new to the PNW, and have enjoyed the past several years living in Colorado. Hoping to fine tune my backcountry skills, and get out there as often as possible.

Howdy all,

I'm well seasoned (perhaps a bit salty) but new to the panhandle and this forum group.

A quick question.
I did some poking around in the weather links here and elsewhere...
I am not seeing much of any collection/reporting on current and historical wind data.
Am i missing something?

 

[DeadHedge]

Just joined the group today.
Second winter in the PNW, first in the backcountry.
Looking forward to a snowy season.

Hoping to find some folks to explore with!

Hi! We built a ski van in 2018 and lived in it for a season before moving to Seattle (Snoqualmie actually). Planning a van trip "our east" to ski tour for Thanksgiving week so joining this site to do some research.

 

[JacobHamm90]
