Have never made it to hood, was gonna buy the spring pass but just got a job there this summer. Going to be there early June to mid August.

Is it worth trying to find a place to rent or should I just camp it. I have to move out from crystal while I'm gone so my car will be full of stuff. But I have a tent and stuff.

Idk, any advice would be sweet. Stoked to get some laps in this summer!

Anyone looking for someone to lap around the FTC tomorrow? (Saturday) My friends bailed on me but I'm still going up there, hope the crowds aren't too bad

I didn’t realize yesterday was the last day of FTC, really glad I went. I heard they build a little public park in the late season. Does anyone or @theabortionator know where they put it and if it’s any good?

Been a seemingly under summer. Just be somewhat discreet ish. Idk have heard of a lot of friends hiking it. I haven't done it with them but just be chill. Also sometimes people ski for the novelty and will give it to you for free or cheap by like 11 if you're going up late.


Was gonna check out the hike park today but thought it was going to rain. Tomorrow might be shitty, hopefully riding sat though.

I'd stay up the hill if possible. Althougha bunch of friends were camping off kwanis which is almost at the bottom of the hill. Depends what you're driving. Driving up that and then to tline every day can be rough on your vehicle.

But there's camping spots all over. This year with the low tide i think things will open even faster but there was a good amount of camping opened early june last year.

Also that strip in govy is fair game and all the snow parks if you're trailer or car lifing.
