We all bundled up and got in gabes car to head up to Timberline lodge.. by the time we went a couple of mikes, the rain turned to snow.. and there were cars spinning out all over the place.. we had no problem.   We headed to timberline to see it for ourselves.. its a bit of a pilgrimage.. its where both Sam and Gabe came for snowboard camp in the summer.. 

We got up there,. baught a red bull and went out and poured one out for Sam

Max had smuggeld in a throwign axe in order to recreate the scence in teh Shining where jack nicholson is comign for his family.. Timberlien kdoge is the exterior thay used in that movie.
