Baller cougfan Posted July 9, 2020 Baller Share Posted July 9, 2020 3/4 of the Wednesday night crew made a day trip to beautiful Baker lake yesterday to do some free skiing missed you @Rednucleus. Even though only the bottom 1/2 of the mountain was visible the scenery was spectacular. The water was a clear blueish-green at 60 degrees. We were the only boat on the 7 mile long lake and the water conditions were perfect. Gots lots of free skiing in and Doug even long line barefooted. Stopped at Birdsview brewery for a beverage on the way back. Made it to Bow lake just in time for our 5 o’clock set. What a great day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Dockoelboto Posted July 9, 2020 Baller Share Posted July 9, 2020 I'm sure there are more scenic places but I feel very lucky to ski here. At least when it isn't raining... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxrus Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Broho near Seattle. Richard and officer friendly took me to another lake nearby. Omg. It was pristine. Eagles flying around. Awesome. Don’t remember the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Cam Posted July 9, 2020 Baller Share Posted July 9, 2020 Loch Lomond in Scotland has stunning scenery, 22 miles long with half in the Highlands and half in the lowlands and islands dotted around the south end, great place for family boating. I learned to ski there as did my wife and kids, still try to have a set there once a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Jody_Seal Posted July 9, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted July 9, 2020 Lake McDonald in glacier national park. In the 80's. Lake closed now a days to power boats for the most part. There was a shell pit lake in Puerto Rico that bordered the Atlantic ocean. Pretty scenic except it at the time was in a pretty low rent area of the island. Rosewater development in kalispell is pretty cool. 360 degree scenic view of the the flathead valley, glacier, big mt and lots of surrounding mountain views.

Baller NikolG Posted July 9, 2020 Baller Share Posted July 9, 2020 The Wailua River in Kauai is pretty amazing. It’s like going through a rain forest and then you stop at the Ocean! Put on your bucket list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller cougfan Posted July 26, 2020 Author Baller Share Posted July 26, 2020 3/4 of the Wednesday night crew made a return trip to Baker lake today ( still no @Rednucleus ☹️) with my wife joining us. Beautiful day with air temps in the mid 80’s and the crystal clear water in the low 70’s. Only problem was Sockeye salmon opened this weekend and the lake was full of fishing boats☹️ Good thing the lake is so big that we were able to find some decent water.

Baller KRoundy Posted July 28, 2020 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2020 Took some turns on Flathead Lake in Montana this morning and it was pretty special. Bonus was that I got to ski behind my dads 1977 Glastron that has been in the family since he purchased it new. I learned to ski behind that machine and it holds a special place in my heart - even if the smallish wake feels like it is built with rocks. ?

Baller jimbrake Posted July 28, 2020 Baller Share Posted July 28, 2020 @Andre - Gordon Rathbun (you know, Ski Paradise). He usually sets up a September trip to Europe to ski and tour. Small group, awesome accommodations and food, different ski sites, coaching, sightseeing in the afternoon. Not this year unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
