You need to make it to Whitefish Mountain Resort if you like Snowbowl. Nice to see a MT person on here.

Default Trip to Copper

A friend and I are headed to Copper Mtn in a couple weeks. Getting pretty excited. I've only boarded once in my life and that was at a small park outside St Louis a couple weeks ago.

I have been in the market for a roof rack since buying my jeep and was wondering if I needed the highrise towers to be able to fit two boards? Wondering if the bindings would clear the roof on the upside down board with only regular size Yakima 1A raingutter towers or the equivalent Thule towers.

Snow conditions at Revelstoke have been unreal in January! The Powder is exceptional and gladed runs even better. +6000 vertical feet of pure heaven!

The boards may clear run upside down. I run the thule raingutter mounts and mounted my yakima skybox and have a few extra inches of space.

Thanks for the pic. I've got a feeling once I add the actual board holder on top of the crossbars that will give me another 2" or so and should be enough.

I ride at Killington (The picture is my friend Heather and Rob and me on the right. This is just off of the main gondola at Killingtons peak) I also like Windham, Hunter and Blue mountain PA which is the closest mountain to where I live
