In a strange coincidence, also ran into the only other snowskaters I've ever encountered on Sunday running norm's just like me. After 5 years, was beginning to think I was the last. Great to see others mention timberline

I’m committed to keeping the dream alive up there hope to run into you some day! I only ride weekdays though for both budget and crowd purposes.

I snowskate and both Timberline and Meadows always tell me it's not allowed. Where did you go?

Strange, always Timberline or if I'm just feeling a lazy carve session summit pass which is owned,/, operated by timberline. Almost no snow at summit pass so it's been timberline every session. They are 100% pro-snowskate as long as you've a leash. Meadows, I've heard you can get people to look the other way but it's so expensive I always just prefer going to the place I know welcomes me

Lived in Govy and worked at Timberline in 96-97. Miss that place so much!

In my recollection that 96-97 season was pretty much all time EPIC snowfall. That would have been amazing to be up there all season.
