Riders on the ridge 1/9/16

Sunny Speed Demons: this week was for you at Baker. ย The snow is holding up nicely during this high pressure spell. ย Runs like Daytona are rippin’ as fast as can be. ย With 131″ at the base of Pan Dome, there’s still plenty of coverage with pockets of hidden powder among the hard-packed groomers.

Need a refreshing powder lap? ย Head to the famous Baker Backcountry!ย  But first, get educated and with the forecast looking a little bare, now’s a great time. ย Mt. Baker offers lots of options for smart backcountry travel through theirย Mountain Education Centerย courses.ย  If you have kids interested in backcountry travel, this Thursday, January 14th there will be a first-ever FREEย SheJumps Youth Avalanche Classย by NWAC at Backcountry Essentials in Bellingham.
