September 4th marked the last day for summer riding up at Timberline’s Palmer Snowfield. An unbelievable winter allowed for a great summer season. After many broken promises of planned Hood trips, I finally made it down for the finale.

Meeting up with the numerous amount of Mt. Baker-Hood transplants, we rode hard and partied in true Gov'y fashion. The park crew left us some fun jibs and kickers that kept us entertained for days. It is truly hard to believe that September would allow for such great riding in North America.

A fun little photo session went down with NW rippers Casey Desmond, Kyle Sanford, and Jens Perrin all killing it on the kicker. Photos courtesy of Ryan Gertken. Oh, and don't worry if you did miss the last weekend, the mountain is only closing for a couple weeks. For all you that just can't get enough, Timberline will fire up the lifts again on September 16th for weekend riding through the fall.

Thank you to Mason at the Blue Ox and Kim from Mountain Services.
