Thread: Missoula backcountry

Yoyo, just moved to Missoula. Looking for any willing peeps to show me around. I have sled that needs to get broken in. And if you aren't into the sled access stuff, I'm willing and able to get down via my own power.

I dont know shit about the area, but in january would love to make some sled/self powered turns...

I knew people that used to go up to the Missions.
Here's some info:

Ask around at some of those putrid hippie wilderness humper places. There's a few crypto 'biler doods lurking around.

Here's more info:

actually a dood over on Epicski.com that does a fair amount of touring around Missoula I believe. his board name is gonzostrike.
He can be a bit caustic in his online personality but we have mutual friends up in the area ( get yo ass to the Bike Dr!) that assure me he is a quality guy in the flesh

Hi, if you did not know i live in MT too and am looking for a person to pull me behind their sled. I know nothing of the area nor do i know of anybody that lives there. I would be of no use to you other than slowing down your sled.

Hey mang,
I'm in Kellogg Idaho about 2 hours west. I'm over in the zoo alot. (the lady friend lives there). Theres a ton of self powered stuff off of Snowbowl. I would suggest stopping by Trailhead for some good info on back country stuff they are a pretty quality shop for that stuff. An other place for some info would be at Gull Ski Shop and talk to a guy named Tux he seems to be a pretty good guy. Other than that there is a crap ton of sled accessed stuff off of lookout pass (I-90 Monana Idaho border) and in the general area over here.

Ah yes my hometown, not only that but a 5th generation girl... hard to find these days.

I've got a few friends here who have promised to show me the backcountry. These guys range from my friends' parents to the guy i sat next to in High School. i know the bowl and some of the stuff from there but other than that its new to me, i haven't spent much time here skiing since I was 18. Im going between missoula and alta again this winter. While up here there are some places i'd like to explore and will be in need of a partner who doesn't have a 9-5 on touring days. Let me know.
