Yea, Haven ridden the KVR a lot, that gearing should be more than enough, even fully loaded. Pretty sure you can go with some bigger tires with that frame, but I have done a good part of that ride...

Haven't Tried the Stigmata, but sounds like it would be an ideal application for what you are using it for. So many more options now other than the Chamois Hagar. Just re-building the Devinci...

Never G3 is the mantra here.
I do have some orange bd ones here and extra hardware if that helps in anyway!

Stunning bike. Would love to take if for a spin if the distance was closer.

Yea, unless they are totally trashed, would be super keen to get them from you if you were thinking of selling.

Really looking hard for a pair of the 1111 if you happen to come across those as well!

It really varies, depends on the outfit, weather and the group you go with. 3000'-6000' for an average day? Most larger trips have two different groups that head out with different objectives so...

Ha! That's the one. Thanks for the laughs. Man, its been a while since I've been on a hut trip. Things have changed!

Amazing timing, by the looks of it. Love the photos, but clicked on the thread to hopefully get some insight on that new avi tool... looks like a fist?? Ha.

Yea, tough to jump up here from OR. Was actually talking about trying some volcanoes this year. Will do!

Great analysis, thanks.

Just thought I'd bump this thread and see how people are making out long term with these boots. While trying out some of the usual options out there, I thought I would just try them on as my size...

Super curious about these boots, but even more curious about his binding setup...

so good. Have a recipe on repeat from that shop. Salmo, Castlegar and Grand Forks on the list for this spring. Thanks for the tips!

If you want to come up for another day at rogers pass, i'd love to get the beasts from you!

Very cool... I'd say go for it if the weather lines up. Looks like a great spot for a go at this. I'm even guessing you could get more vert on the right day with access to night skiing.

I love scrolling through this thread every once in a while. Some great shots.

Not sure who this is, but I thought it was an interesting view. Cougar valley, Rogers Pass. February 17

Great to see all the visitors making the most of this extremely low tide year.
Was shocked at the lack of snow up at Rogers Pass. Still wouldn’t feel too comfortable out on the glaciers. Some...

Yes, during the cold snap, there were helicopters buzzing above, trying to push warmer air down into the vineyards and orchards. Don’t think it helped very much though. It will be rough on the...

What if I told you there was a way to park 12-18 km skin away to basecamp?!

And yes, was thinking the changes and this years snowpack may have changed the ski options quite a bit

That’s about as far as you can go due to the ban on sleds past the Bush river arm.

Bump. Amazing writeup. Time to plan a return trip?

Yea, I'd say that counts as steep. Some beautiful lines in this thread. Was going to say Lee has been around Clemenceau and the photos and write up were inspiring. Not sure if they are still...

Clemenceau has always been on my list as well. I actually have a trap line that borders the whole area with a cabin on Kinbasket. Really keen on trying a land-based approach. My grandpa built a...

Wow, nice find. Tail running, drinking and drugs to to max and skating. Similar to these days, other than the "we love to drive around and degrade chicks..." part.. ha

Ok, this guy makes those big days seem like a joke. Almost 80,000 vertical feet in 24 hours without using the lift

Yea, right thread for Revy. If you look at the whole province, Revelstoke is practically the deep south! Haven't been there for a while, but definitely less coverage than last year. High freezing...

First time ever skiing in the Whistler area last week. Four side country runs off of Blackcomb. Some stunning, terrain you all have there. Not sure if I could ever get used to those kinds...

Not going to f up Ex-pow’s thread anymore responding to this stupidity. Take it over to the Canada thread [emoji849]

Made this when the convoy was a thing. Never did print any, but sent it out to some that did. Let me know if you want the file!

This is the funniest thing I've read all week!! A paid trip to Jamaica ... Destroying democracy. Pretty much the same thing. wow.

Nice edit and summary, L. Was wondering how the glaciers are up up at the pass, but that sounds spooky. Will focus on the light and dry stuff, i guess.

I’ve never been, and from the stories, I don’t think I could tour with Rudy either.

While I haven’t done the traverse, ice fall lodge is in...

Big white is well below normal, but like always, there are still ways to enjoy the hill. Checked out the back country on Sunday and was fun, but definitely not the usual. Lots of shrubbery,...

Because this thread can't get any worse...

You didn't say if you were touring or not. Nobody wears a helmet while touring anyways.

Thats so impressive. Sure, nothing beats pow days, but fun to push things and play the number games when conditions aren't the best. Sould be no problem with the right conditions and access to the...

Yea, thats where I met you. Pretty sure it was by the DJ booth where everyone was on skis, on the dance floor. Would love to go back. Such a great event.

BFD Thanks... Must have been someone...

Found that article and seems like a whole other level.

https://snowbrains.com/jackson-wy-man-skis-125000-vertical-feet-in-one-day/

That would make it tough. Ha I guess you had this challenge up there though. Even harder!

Oh wow, thats an impressive ammount of vert for a season. No wonder his legs were fine! Ha. Solid work. That was at Alpental?

Lowagriz... Thats next level going to spreadsheets... Nice. ...

Yes, I know it’s TGR. I’m typically in the back country 90% of the time, but ended up with a seasons pass along with some free time last winter, and while I had a blast all over the hill, was...

Same further south. Still some great turns to be had, but another metre to cover the brush would be great.479940479941479942

East peak area. Big White yesterday

Love seeing some of these trails in other parts of the world. Nice work

Something a little different. Definitely some cheesy parts, but shows some amazing capability of these new bikes
...

Bit of a thread drift, but any chance you still have the Elan 1111 kicking around. Still trying to track down a pair.

Whippets mater!
That’s about all I can add for now, but looking forward to this thread.

Still pretty happy with these. One on the handlebar, one on the head works amazing on the bike. Wen seems...

Well, at least they got rid of the hover bar! Definitely not a fan of integrated bars and narrow clearance, but canyon looks to have a pretty solid lineup, one frame for pure gravel...

Yeah, I was going to post some of those pictures, but it wouldn’t let me. The puddle of aluminum rims beside the car were crazy. Sad but striking image of the scotch creek, fire department burn to...

Yeah, crazy weekend here in Kelowna, and looks even worse up there in the Shuswap. Stay safe.
