Thanks for the TR - pics. As usual Bert is better ! although I won't be riding either until we get allot more snow.

[Tippster]

Ohhhhh....

HELL YEAH!!!

It's ON!! :D:D

[SIIHP]

Thats the most powder anyone has ever seen in Colorado. Hell, I have lived here 24 years and have only had 0 powder days.

Yeah, Bert's got twice as much at least. What is up with that? Although I couldn't get up onto Loveland Pass today to see how much they got last night. So it could be deeper there than yesterday. A truck went off the same place as last year. CDOT didn't put the chain rule into effect in time is my understanding.

[Telekóptero]

nice, Mir. :)

[SheRa]

Ohhhhh....
It's ON!! :D:D

Early tomorrow morning will probably be the last chance to grab any of this. The sun's gonna melt it all off, except prolly the permanent snowfields will hold it a little longer - I hope...

[SheRa]

nice, Mir. :)

Thanks, Aerie - are you heading out at all? I'll be skiing the next three days before I get shackled. Wanna come with?

Who the devil is that in the pic? :confused: I can't tell without the green jeans.

Also, are you still on the same old Dynastar Inspireds? They're not going to be your ski for the coming season, are they? You'd probably be skiing on the wood core since those bases have got to be fried. What do you have lined up equiptment-wise for this season?

[Ubersheist]

...and whaddya mean "shackled?" Are you working again? (I seem to remember a thread about you working somewhere up near Breck... Am I wrong?)

Oh yeah, baby, that's what I'm talkin bout!

[Ireallyliketoski]

Sweet!! I'm hoping to do some mountaineering this weekend in RMNP, and I've got the crampons ready for hopefully some mixed climbing. We'll be descending Andrew's Glacier so I'll let everyone know if it's improved since the last TR. Still waiting for a decent base to develop before I go skiing, my knees wouldn't do well if locked my tips under a branch.

Hopefully it'll snow like this all year!! I have a good feeling that it will :D

[PowderPig]

Aye caramba!

Now, where did I put my rock skis?

[iskibc]

Mmmmm, Berthoud stoke. Thanks Mir.

Shackled??? You going to jail? Joby Job?

[Skidancer]

Ohhhhhh! I wanna go, tooooo!!! Damn work! Maybe next storm - hope it'll stick longer and be deeper!

I'm so jealous!

That's our girl,Gettin it done as usual.The bottom had to be super sketch.You on a solo mission,or did you coax & cajole a fellow conspirator into it as well!

Those spankers sent my liners back,got 'em today.They look like the Marquis de Sade's Texas Toe Torture device after I tried some other boots on today!

[divegirl]

Quadruple thumbs up to you, SheRa!!
I can't believe there is that much snow already...winter can't come soon enough over in these parts!!
Those pics are beauts!! :)

Oh, nice!!! You are going to have the most beautiful hike in there. Looking forward to your pics.

Andrews kicked my ass. But I'm still here to talk about it...

Next summer I am going to focus on RMNP as much as possible. That place is just amazing.

[SheRa]

Mmmmm, Berthoud stoke. Thanks Mir.

Shackled??? You going to jail? Joby Job?

We'll talk tomorrow. At an ungodly early hour. :rolleyes: :D

Yup. I was so hating those skis on Andrews the other day. But today, they were wonderful, soft snow is where they rule. I'm planning to get Explosiv 173 and Stockli 171 for this coming season. Explosiv with at bindings and stockli mounted alpine. Shorter than my 178 skis, but way burlier. Then next year I want to up the length to 180. And I will be master of the universe!!!

I was all by my lonesome. And it was so nice. Not that I don't love you guys and all. But it was really beautiful out there with just me and the mountains and the trees and the snow. And I've gotten over some kind of hurdle as far as fear goes. At least for these easy access places...

So that means you can go skiing?

Torrey's on Sunday? I also have something nice lined up for Saturday, if you're interested.

[Nohillsnearby]

Nice! I'm so jealous. ::::::::walks away mumbling "darn midwest with summerlike weather"::::::::::: :mad:

Probably needs the copper then the nylon brush to bring the base structure out a bit more.
