Me and my buddies are going from Chicago to Denver this comming week and i want to know how the security is for checking bags. Do they xray them? Do they only xray both checked bags and carry on bags? Reason i want to know is cause im bringin my piece and an 1/8 for skiing. Do any of you NSers have any expierence with this?

when i rode it probly 5 or 6 years ago they didnt check shit. i dont really know about these days since security has really buckled down. plus i live in MT and who the fuck wants to bomb MT. if you are in big cities i wouldnt doubt some sort of security check. put your piece in your pocket and your weed or else triple bag it and put into a full shampoo container

taken it out west from Chicago a few times. You shouldn't have a problem, they never looked in my carry on bags or said anything when we broke out a 30 pack pulling out of the station.
