    yesterday was a sweet day at baker. even though it was raining cats and dogs, i still had a ton of fun. this day is memorable since it was the first time i went down gabls, a double diamond run. it was the last day of the season for me too. i wish baker would stay open longer since they have more than 150 inches of snow on the ground still.

    here is a pic of gables from the trip report of my first ay of the season:

    update: hit timberline lodge and crystal mountain memorial day weekend but didnt snap many pics. at crystal i was just trying to lap stuff a lot and at timberline it was rainy and foggy.

    possible ski trip to timberline this thursday. details to follow. if i hit it, it would continue my streak of skiing every month since november of last year.
