Sweet. Now we just need the reservoirs to fill so we can start seeing good flows on the tailwaters. I'm itching to float the Lower Blue and catch Jones's pet fish.

I used to have a pair of those Kooka cranks way back when. I'm not sure they could have made them more flexy if they tried.

Did they announce lift ticket prices (or deals for passholders at other resorts)?

$800 is a great deal. Heck, Turner will give you a $600 credit if you ever want a new frame.

The one change I found that made a big difference on my '05 Spot (stock 5.3" rockers & 140mm fork)...

I'm in the same boat as you guys. And yes, it's all about easy access. If I lived in Teton Village instead of the Colorado foothills, my preference would be a quick tram lap instead of my daily...

I don't think you can go wrong either way. I would love to have both (with a Bud/Lou on the Moonie for snow). I used the $$ I saved to upgrade parts (hydros are a big improvement over the BB7s, esp...

I was on the fence between a Necro Pugs and Moonlander. Decided on the Necro Pugs (they now come w/ Holy Rolling Darryls). My idea is to run it with a 4.8 tire (Surly Bud) + Clownshoe up front on...

Nice. Yeah that likely was me, rode jedi both days. Trails are in great shape for biking. Though it does get a little punchy further up west ranch where it's mosly ski traffic.

Ski gloves have been working fine for me. Rode the trails around Summit Cove/Keystone Ranch this weekend at 10deg and didn't get cold. Thumb shifters help, no problem braking. I ditched my...

I bought a Necro Pugs a couple weeks ago. Had it out a couple times on the dirt (fun) but got in my first snow ride yesterday. Took it out on a mellow 10mi ride by my house to get a feel for it. ...

After demoing a few bikes and being blown away by the new XT's, I picked up a pair + ice rotors a couple weeks back from bluesky to replace my Juicy 7's. One of the better upgrades I've done to my...

Can you apply the $1200 discount to a Sultan? If so, I would be interesting in buying the frame from you for $300.

Schwerty,

Any sections on the Snake fishing better than others?

With the Reverbs, if you have a failure on the trail can you lock it in the up position? Or are you forced to ride with your seat dropped?

How's the smoke level in Summit County looking? May shift my plans to bike all next week up there if it's pretty bad.

Anyone been on the Green recently? Looks like the flows are finally down. Guessing the dry fly action is heating back up? Heading up there for 4 days and hoping to get some Cicada love.

The salmonfly hatch on the Upper C may actually occur with decent visibility (if it happens at all - no idea how the flows will affect it and I didn't float that section back in 2002 to know). If...

No idea how close it is to a town with dive bars (Lake George?) but it looks like a cool place with just over a mile of the Tarryall. Closest float fishing would be on...

As of 10:20am, Copper is showing nearly 8" on their snowstake cam.

Yeah, 1996. I didn't go to a single class that month (it continued into the first 6-7 days in Feb iirc). Incredible storm cycle. About time for a repeat.

Psyched for the mags that were up there...

I bought an XR12 around this time last year. Fished it down the Upper CO a few times as well as the Lower Blue (Jurassic Park). Pretty sweet boat for the money. Super nimble, no problem running it...

Floated 3 different sections of the Snake in GTNP early last week. Fishing was off the hook. Ton of pigs. Very healthy fish. Nearly 75-80F every day. Doesn't get much better than that.

Thanks schwerty. Flying in early this coming Sunday and heading to straight to the water from the airport. Out on the last flight Tuesday so 3 days on the river. Planning on two days in the GTNP...

Jackson mags - How is the Snake in GTNP fishing right now? Any stretches fishing better than others? Is the airport channel sketch this year?

Hit the Green early last week for 4 days. Not a lot of dry action (even with temps in the low 80's every day) but we did boat a lot of fish on large scuds. B section fished much better than A. Got...

The point that is DBT is making here is how he truly has no class. It's pretty sad really.

Sweet! Heading up there next weekend. Hoping the flows stay consistent or drop w/ the Yampa peak.

FKNA. Would not have guessed the Green would be on fire at that level. Sinktips?

Good review, thanks. Sounds a lot like the Z-axis, though with a slightly softer tip.

Breck = gnar. :rolleyes:

Looks like the flows were just bumped to 9,500cfs last night. Will be curious to hear how the fishing is. Maybe it will force out some of the big ones from their hiding spots.

I've fished it at...

The reviews and the weight for the BVK line are impressive. Heck, the 9' 7wt is lighter than my 8.5' 3wt.

Thanks for the suggestions. Ended up going for the Redington. Could not justify...

Just read that the Green flows below the dam are expected to bump up to 8,600 sometime in the next month. Has anyone ever fished it at those levels? Thinking I will likely need to push out my early...

I love my 4wt and 6wt Classic Trout so I am leaning towards the Redington Pursuit.

Looking for cheap 7wt rod recommendations. Rod will only be used a few times per year whille floating the lower blue (10-15lb slimy pellet heads). So it doesn't need to be anything fancy. Leaning...

Red Creek Rapids has a lot fewer rocks @ 3000+. Less technical at those flows (left side, have never been right).

Grasshopper is my favorite site on B.

Guessing it could be easily modified into a 1-man boat.

Just bought one to fish some of the smaller water around here (esp. Jurassic Park)....

Is the BOA system worth the extra $80?

Looking to replace my old Simms felt boots and want a studded rubber and regular rubber (when floating) sole, but don't want to buy two pairs of boots. Are...

Nice!

"I got the tree on my mirror so my car won't smell"

Nuking on the way up from Denver. 11pm i70 shitshow.

Nice fish!! Oink.

Great stoke. Time to ditch my skis and get back out on the water.

Felt like March yesterday. Ended up fishing the Blue instead of skiing.

So much for getting the deficit under control. Same bullshit as usual – more spending. No mention from either side about how they will pay for the deal. Fuck it, let the tax cuts expire for...

I think most of the outrage is because people now realize they can no longer bring an 8ball with them to Vegas.

Interesting in that they are the only ones calling it right now.

I'd guess around 30% of the County (this includes Longmont, etc.) would vote for Buck. Maybe 15% of Boulder proper.

Denver Post just called the race for Bennet. Interesting. Only leading by 7,000 w/ 30,000 votes left to be counted in Boulder County.

Did it without a single negative ad.

Reid owes the tea baggers big time. My dog could have beat Reid.

8-10 points off by Rassmusen is easily w/in their new margin of error.
