It was boring....
Snow was horrendous....
While Sheepdog and Seanyob smoked cancer sticks, Tak and I traversed out to this...
Tak points to his house....
Late afternoon ridge schralping....
OMG, SO BEAUTIFUL!
Tak finally heads toward our pickup location....
It was like our own little heli-run.....

Its Gore-tex right?
Stilling the spirits....
Dinner? Nah, lets head up Coronet Peak!
Its a Friday night, the music is right for Night Shredding....

I don't speak Kiwi, but I'm sure they have a special word for their own brand of gnarnitude.

So much slutting in this thread that even a Jersey shore girl with her name spelled out on gold sitting high above her fake orange-colored tits would even be jealous.
