Another vote for Sorcerer. There's a good variety of terrain there. DougW - one correction. There is no skiing to the door at the end of the day but an awesome first run within 10 minutes at the...

Was going through old pics and came across this one from a winter backpack trip to Farm Pass.

Give this a few years of upgrades/advancements and I can see the merits. Get from 200 meters to 2 km's (that's 1.25 miles for you Yankees), add video stabilization, maybe a recorder in the back of...

Some really good discussion here. Food for thought; Earlier in the thread it was calculated out that guide courses and certifications totalled a minimum of $10000, which did not include all the trip...

Weed on a hut trip is not only a good idea, it's an essential part of the gear list. I ski tour about 60 - 80 times a year with people that toke a bunch of times throughout the day. Not once have I...

Yup. I definitely ski better than I sled.

Don't listen to BackcountrySkiBum. He is delirious and is in need of some serious intervention.

And here's the pics...

Aye Ratbaggers. Thanks for the hospitality over the last while. Thought I would throw in a pic or two. Hope you had an awesome Christmas and see you tomorrow?!

Awesome Dude. I hiked the Rockwall 2 years ago and put that one on the list. Way to get at er'

Howdy Y'All! Seeing as I poached the stoke on the thread all season long last year I thought me and the gang should contribute this year. Sorry for the length and the shaky parts in advance and...

I'm in for a late march camp. I'm in NZ from Mar 1-15th and it wouldn't really be winning the trophy if you don't have the returning champ...

You almost nailed it dude! Except it was a dream, and backscratcher died his hair red to look like Lindsay Vonn...It was so disturbing I needed to get high...Then I got the munchies and had a Butter...

$20??? That was specifically meant for those that understood...including you. One might be considered a snitch, or rat for the release of such info. I personally would not retaliate but can not...

Just to be clear this whole thing is in code and if you can figure it out...Wow.

Was out the other day at the grocery store cause my wife is menstral and wanted me to check out the quality and...

Nice vid man! brought back some kick ass memories.

Hey Gripen, have you checked out any possible dates for this year? I need to defend my title...I mean I need more mentorship.

I might be up for a KH camp again in around the same timeline as last year and am sure I know of a couple others that would be interested.

Yea but some people are...

I don't think I'll be making the camp this year guys but will be sure to pass on the "Worlds Greatest Skier" Trophy (which by the way, did I mention I have). Hope the...

The advice given is dead bang on. Mine was 2 broken heals and a Surgeon that said I would be lucky to walk normal again. I'm happy to report that is not the case. As soon as you can get active.

Came home after the camp the other day and showed Shelly the Trophy (Lil J.). She put together a quick comparison between my younger years and now.

I gotta chime in here too regarding the campetition and say what an awesome weekend it was! Watching everyone push themselves got me totally stoked...So stoked I even bumped chests with Back...

Due to time restrictions I past the list off to Back Scratcher for processing, who intern hired Mex, shorty_J, Westslope, 2 stix and some mysterious Calgary Rob guy to ensure an appropriate level of...

Quite the sausage fest no??

Back Scratcher and Sentinel payment confirmed for the comp or I mean camp. Super stoked its off to training for me.

Is that a call out??? So glad I went to Louise this week and hit some decent drops while you and your better half this week were skiing like a Juicy fruit commercial:the_finge.

Up for hitting...

Sentinel and Backscratcher confirmed...Funny how most people going to the camp (including myself) are "Training" so too not be the weak link.

I think this may have been the group of three that followed our skin track Sunday. Hopefully everyone is ok? We were having lunch in the trees below on the first slide and talked a bit after before...

^^If I were to ski west I would probably run around putting SOS in the snow and then fuck off from the sign so to ensure no one would find me.



Snow! Just kidding. We've skied some of it...

And it only took me 3 years.

Since T2C is temporarily not able to post any pics or vid I'll throw a bunch in on his behalf. Me and Backscratcher were out in the Pass the last couple days and things were rather good. I didn't...

I must say it was humerous for those that witnessed it. My only tip...my only tip I gave him was to not lean back... When he hit the rail there wasnèt even a pause...and then he was down.

This makes me think I ended the season a week too soon. Awesome job!

^^ I'll second that.

^^ We're still trying to figure out where to go tomorrow... Early start for sure but what region still remains to be seen. I'll call either you or Rob around 7ish.

^^ That "thing" me thinks is going to get shralped!

Nice pic T2C. Snow quality is still great...in certain locations (see above). The Rockies may be thin but while other areas are going through withdrawal, we can ski well into June.

Aahh the irony...

Today someone on this forum chases his tail, running around in circles, trying to test a third beacon by finding mine, only to realize, after he declares the beacon is fucked, he has his on.

Interesting that it didn't first fracture in the upper column layers. Being that it was 190 cm's down, and no upper fractures, I would think skier trigger is less likely.

Disclaimer: If it did...

I never knew I was such a good asset to the rapping community until I saw that.

Great vid T2C!

Totally agree. Faceshots on the Prophet 130's, all day, does not suck.

Red Jacket, Black Pants, and brown helmet. My guess is it would have been the first ride when the Gondi opened.



No rubbing "dude". I look at it more like you are an injured team mate. Would...

Thanks T2C for going to work. I know the sacrifice was hard and yes...you definitely took one for the team. Today was aboslutely AWESOME at the Horse! And now the road is closed and I am forced to...

Maybe too late but if anyone is touring in the Rogers area this weekend and doesn't mind a tag along PM me.

You hit it on the nose dude, definitely not compared to other snowpacks. That was the most stable snowpack I've skied this year. Definitely some wind slab development at TL and above but overall I...

I think we past each other on the trail. Me and T2C where coming down and you and another going up. I think you mentioned debating whether to bring your skis or not but could have been someone else.

I can't be right all the time...

I believe it does start this Thursday. Get your skis shined up and grab that stick a Juicy Fruit, cause this year is gonna move ya!

And as T2C said, prep for 3 days, 2 nights starting Thurs...

Agreed!!! I am so ready for 2 day work weeks.

Two Words...Fuck you! And I am now totally jealous of the turns received on the Wapta...Bravo. I too will be up there soon.

Just shits and giggles here is the epically bad vid...YouTube - Rae Glacier Oct 16, 2010
