The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

K here are a few pics from the last few weeks.
Billy, Adam, Tyfalk, and myself went up Tanner's. It's one of the big marquee chutes on the N side of LCC and S facing. From the road it's 3500' vert to the top. It's the biggest line I've skied this year. We skinned everything from except the last few hundred feet because of a choke. It's got everything. The top is a rock lined 40 degree chute which opens to a glorious 35 degree pow field before transitioning to a gully that goes to the road.
UP
From the lower part of the snowfield. Road pretty far below
Adam truckin'
The weather moved in and visibility from here on out went to crap
Still a nice piece of ground to cover
The ski down was good. I love skiing a big chute with no visibility. I tagged a rock or three, but it was a great trip. We had to pull off 300+ kick turns for this trip. It was character building.
Every night there's a pretty phenomenal sunset up here.
