I'm a hiker, backpacker, and snowboarder. I love the Pacific Northwest outdoors! I volunteer with Washington Trails Association and the Pacific Crest Trail Association.
January 23, first time out this season at Stevens Pass. It was good but not great. First time I saw rocks sticking out beneath the power lines in January.

Stopped by the Produce Market at Flower World in Maltby, picked up some veggies and eggs, then visited the animals. The lambs were super cute.

Saturday was super busy at Stevens Pass after all the new snow. Free parking was filled by 08:00. I had to park at Yodelin. My first lift wait was 20 minutes from start of upload. Lift lines were not too bad as a single rider. I got to use my pow board, first time this season, 😂.

I picked up a new backpack for snowboarding. I got a good deal on the end of season sale. It's smaller than the one I was using but has all the functions I need and is more compact.

I'm saddened by the loss of Pete. I only worked with him once but his passion, skill, and knowledge was amazing as we built a rock wall.
