All Things Snowrider in PDX and OR

Be there.

Last Thursday the Snowrider Project PDX pulled off its most successful fundraiser ever. BIG thanks to Powderwhore Productions, our volunteers, sponsors and all of you who purchased raffle tickets and especially those who jumped at the ‘arms length for $20′ deal. Cheers and here’s to an early and looooong season.

Prepare thyself Portland, Northwest Oregon and Southwest Washington. Powderwhore Productions aka The Howell Bros. arrive in Portland Thursday, October 21st at the Kennedy Schoool with their 6th and latest film TeleVision.

Please join us early. The film starts at 7pm. Sponsors of the Snowrider Project raffle include Black Diamond, CiloGear, Cobra Dogs, Mt. Hood Ski Bowl, The Mountain Shop, Next Adventure, Patagonia, Shuler Surfboards, Timberline Lodge, Voodoo Doughnuts and YoBeat. The ‘gold raffle ticket’ holder will receive a Mt. Hood Fusion Pass. That’s right, spend a few bucks on raffle duckets and you just might go home with a season pass to both Timberline and Mt. Hood Ski Bowl. Hot damn!

This year’s show is all ages. A large thank you goes out to all our sponsors and volunteers who definitely aren’t tossers.

“TeleVision’s” highlight reel delivers the finest backcountry powder skiing from classic big-mountain arenas around the world. This yearʼs feature includes huge Alaskan lines in the Chugach ripped to shreds by the lovely and talented Megan Michelson, Telemark World Champion Paul Kimbrough, and young phenom Jake Sakson. Resident Powderwhores Noah Howell and Jason West take care of business as usual on their home slopes of the Wasatch Mountains. Another successful trip to the remote peaks of Haines, Alaska, puts Nick Devore, Andy Jacobsen, Will Cardamone, and Chris Erickson on top of the steepest lines ever touched by telemark skis. Andrew McLean, Noah Howell, Jim Harris, and Courtney Phillips venture deep into Alaska’s Revelation Mountains to explore and ski first descents. Ty Dayberry flips and spins his way back onto the screen as only he can do. And of course, we deliver our deepest powder feast ever, starring Paige Brady, Will Cardamone, Chris Erickson, and Jake Sakson, all smothered by the greatest snow on earth. Pre-order now at www.powderwhore.com DVDʼs ship Oct 1st.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

Absinthe supports both the Snowrider Project and Protect Our Winters. C’mon down to the Clinton St. Theater in SE Portland for one of two shows or both at 7 & 9 pm.
