Thread: 2011/2012 Canadian Rockies Roll Call and StokeThread...

Trying to send a pm from my iPhone doesn't seem to be working. Saw Pete today . The weekend looks good . We should get out on something t2c

Is anyone interested in meeting up at SSV this Sunday and Monday for some spring skiing? I still have 2 passes left over that someone gave me, and my buddy bailed on me, so I can go two days.

Was on Moraine Lake Road last night. Plowed about 9k up but the last 2km plowed has a nice layer of ice underneath and had to walk my bike a few parts. Plow was stopped right at the end and I hear they were doing some avy control at like 7am today so maybe they got It plowed will know more tonight.

Anyone keen on some late season touring I'm ready to go any day. Preferably Lake Louise area.

last week skiing,starting at the alpine start time of 630 pm sunday the 6. Pardon the lateness of photos workin for powderbucks in an internetless zone.
cornice on fay was large
sometime s the scenery is nice.
hope all is gettin at it and keep the stoke level high.

What, can't get over the cornice with 2 tools and busting out a couple figure 4 moves...pussy. LMFAO...totally kidding. Nicely done...getting after the big ones on the night shift. Did you stay at the hut and access via 3-4?

Nice stuff Skian_!

Nice Skian_. Was wondering if anyone knew anything about the avalanche in bow summit area 2 days or so ago. Ski tracks going in and none coming out. Just hoping everyone was alright.

^how old is it? Any details on exactly where in Bow Summit?

From what I heard about 2 or 3 days and sorry no details besides bow summit area

the quality stoke just keeps on coming. Nice work kids!

Alright, this time it's definitely the last effing ski edit of the year

Sweet stoke...can't top that today so I won't post the pic I was going to lol. That's quality shit right there Angrysasquatch! The only thing missing is *Theteo's (*word on the street) side slip down the poached straight line shot that pissed off the locals

The beater at the end....is that person ok? Seemed to bounce off those rocks pretty hard.

This vid gets my vote.

I asked Teo about that, he said it wasn't him. He skied it though; that line is straight fucked.

That was Matt, m-ruta. He's fully healed, or damn close to it. He got off with just a fractured shoulder blade, skied with him on the bonus weekend. Whether or not fractured shoulder blade counts as serious injury is up to the mags to decide. If not, I think it's pretty hard to top that beater, at least ten full rotations, high speed contact with rock, snow rammed down the throat on the fan, super rocket ski, it's got it all!

Just to point out, where he hesitates at the start of that run, directly fall line from there is my line on Wrangle. I don't go there anymore.

Thanks for the vote man!

How is Sunshine skiing these days? Is everything open for slushcup and can get some good runs in?

Yeah, that crash was fucked but I'm alright. No lasting damage other than to my helmet and spine pad, both of which are now garbage. Not an experience I'd ever like to repeat though.

Great job on the edit, Angry. Reminded me just how awesome the season was at KH this year.

Saturday, Flower Couloir:



Sunday, Silverhorn:



Sunday deserves a 2nd pic:

Solid 69th Post Go-up

anyone up for some skiing if we get some nice freezes over the next couple of nights? I've got a bunch of stuff in mind. if moraine lake isn't open yet, it's probably bike-able?

some nice dust on crust on fairview this morning, moraine lake road looks open, going back tomorrow for sure

Started off with this:

then moved on to this:

and saw some people doing this:

Nice work SIB. That looked awful nice over there. You dudes ran up that. We made it up. Glad Dave is as patient as he is. I slowed to a crawl 2/3's the way up. Trail out was spicy

no idea on who this is.

Bit o luck involved there! Whew! Lucked out when we skied it. Fresh dynafit mount with not enough forward pressure. First jump turn heels popped out and on landing toes poppies off. It was thigh deep and managed to grab both skis. Clicked back in and locked my toes(always have them locked since). The next 8 turns heels would pop and engage on landing until I got to my buddy with a Swiss army(tech atleast mounted them straight). Thigh deep and super stable. Didn't want to waste that. Could have had a similar ending though

I guess that's a quick way down. Crazy vid. Glad he made it out in one piece. That thin snow and cheese grader rock would definitely be scary at the bottom if you were mocking out of that riding your Gore-Tex.
