Mckeem.. if you are going there.. I will come to.
I aint gonna throw down jack.. but I will bring a camera bag full of goodies.
Unless it's pounding snow somewhere that day.. and then I think we should just go whereever that is and shoot.

Washingtons got a big snow box now in place of mini, step up step down, not super big but definetly calling for some steezy moves, and the jumps are prety large too. ^hey liberty, pretty sure you saw my collison today, me and that other dude hit hard.

The ferry terminal is really, really easy to find. Instead of turning off at exit 1 to whistler you just go down to the toll booth things. But yeah it's on Van Isle.

for those that don't know, you will have a hard time getting there before registration closes if you plan on taking the ferry that morning. If you are going over from vancouver, plan on going the night before.
Also, if you are coming from anywhere besides courtneay, don't expect the judges to be kind to you. The competitions at mt. washington are notorious for being extremely biased towards local kids. (i.e. a couple years ago a straight air from a local kid beat a switch 900 from whistler).
Hopefully this has changed, but the mountain's management hasn't, so dont get your hopes up.
I speak only the truth here.

I said a couple of years ago, I belive it was 2003? or 2004. The judges knew where everone was from because it was written right beside their name. The judges were also a mix of snowboarders and ski instructors, none of whom knew shit about slopestyle skiing. But like I said, I hope things have changed because they really needed to.
