Thanks Chup, that's cool. Silent hedges is a favorite amongst all of those cherries.

If this had more dates and/or was closer, I'da made it. Lotsa solid tunes at that gig.

How was Bauhaus and what was the setlist like?

Was it the original 4?

Daniel Ash has been yakking on sirius all week about the Bauhaus/Tones on Tail/ Love and Rockets life.

All.
The.
Time.

I went for a spin this evening, twas a bit brisk still.

Told myself I was gonna ride a lot more this offseason.
The old liter bike still...

Jeebus, no shit. That's a Streetfighter, right?

Over 200 horses and under 500 pounds? Fuck, that's a handful.

Yeah dude, pm me as well. Bbear and I will give it the full test out. Forwards, backwards, smoke evacuation, etc.

I got the weekend off so holla...

Or text me straight away if you still have my...

Yo, my friend, I've adopted three cats from here.
I'd bring this lil' blue girl halfway to your house...

...

Aaw man, I'm going, that's all there is to it.

I'm fuckin' goin'.

Stay safe JB, that shit looks gnarly.

Was thinking about not getting to go see the eaglets this spring with you. Sad but maybe next time.
And I was really down to race the sport bikes to...

I just sprung for a big ole bar of yellow wax.

And yeah, wtf is up with that car? Any other time it would have been towed in under 24 hours...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Man,...

Oh please dear, for your information the Supreme Court has ROUNDLY rejected prior restraint!

Exactly, on all counts.
As much as I don't enjoy the grunt outta Gardiner, it is the essence of the skiing there.

The fact that you can make turn number 1 about 100 paces from the car seat is...

With over 3 weeks until the holiday, it could be slim pickins. I'd ski the hell outta that thing right now though, looks tasty.

Beartooth pass really doesn't revolve around that Poma lift though....

Way to go Mag, that's a great challenge and you've hammered it out in the leanest of seasons.

:yourock::yourock::yourock::yourock::yourock:


:party:.

Thanks for letting all of us be a part...

Here's a pretty good view of the Rock Creek chutes.

I hope it wasn't a Marjorie Taylor-Greene fundraiser.


:fuckyou: Jay.

Well hell, that blows. I just connected the battery and fired up the bike yesterday.

Well, be safe and smart; we'll see ya when we can.

Although not really a secret, and that sentiment didn't originate with her, you are indeed correct.
She just filled the Jerry gap when the Kemmerer's/mgmnt. decided to get tight and nickel and dime...

May 31...

My information is that there is some potential to sell out earlier than usual as well.
Not to scare anyone into hurrying tho.
The quota for passes the past 2 years was only capped...

Last second decision this morning was to buy the full Grand pass.

$1715 cha ching.

I'd do a combination of these two.
In this case, less is better.

Get some sanding sponges and try and smooth/knock down the worst parts, but not any more than needs attention.
Get a stain pen,...

Honestly, I didn't even get it at first. Then it dawned on me.

Lunch in Pinedale would be good, maybe hit the brewery up.
Ever been to the Mountain man museum? Pretty cool stuff in there.

Still chilly over here and lotsa gravel on the roads still. That shit...

Just between the 3 of us...I laughed.

Also, this.

Fire that up, then watch this. Loop it.

Thanks for keeping it real.

And once you gain a mastery of the art, you never forget the skills, even if you focus on one discipline primarily.
You'd be back in the mix next season in the usual...

^^^^^

Sweet puppy belly.

Hope to see ya this summer; let's take a lap around the block on the motorsickles.

Also, I noted that those passes don't go on sale until next monday. Think there's gonna be a rush.

And the recent parking pass email, said" If the TVA board decides to continue the season pass...

RPK pass does not allow for upgrades, correct.




Plainly some destinations have changed, I just meant whatever places the pass does offer next year.
I skied Alta and Solitude about 3 weeks...

Yeah that's gonna be some weird math...

Skiing both the vill and the ghee all winter, with the ghee filling in on the vill blackout days; (and any other days that are appealing; which would be...

Definitely not my defintion of progress.
The first year of ikon was a complete clusterfuck, the second year, due to complaints, they gave us one without increasing the full pass price iirc.
The...

22-23 spring pass prices: { last year }

$2110 RPK pass - unlimited plus ikon base { $1929 }

$1710 Grand pass - unlimited { $1529 }

$1285 ...

Tiiiittttaaaaaaaayyyyzzzzzz!

Fkna, wish I was there witcha. Looks like a great bunch to turn with.

Bring SC and TC back west with yas next saison.

I don't think we saw a slider offa the big poma but I recall Eastorbust saw someone have a platter pull off of the lower one. Guy might've gotten a group laugh or applause.

And we discussed all...

That shit skis steeper than it looks.

On opening day, those guys were telling us the far face wasn't gonna open for fear of the cornice breaking off.
I wanted to tell them they could drive that...

Hell. Yes.

We need to some ski time, it's been a while.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Those dudes running the lift area are surely somewhere else pulling tubes and invoking ullr.
...

The pack on the left in my previous photo is a JA gear ridge pack, as referenced by Ghosthop.

And it's an early one; adopted it after a short time with the Life-Link Boundary pack.
(The LL flip...

Yeah, thinking this last storm put down a good layer and hopefully more between now and then.
Best skiing and camping is on weekdays up there. Less people and quiet at night.

Nice, look forward to meeting up witcha and throwing down some laps.




It is special fosho.

Memba how much of a last minute cluster it was? Yet we ended up in the camping zone within 30...

Six weeks out from today the lift starts spinning. Hopefully.

Anyone making plans for a trip up to the pass?

I'm in tentatively.

Last year's opener had some sketchy condish...

FKNA, that's what I'm talkin' about!

Why do you insist on sitting in the refrigerator?

Here's the ultra light version I use. Waaay smaller than my dakine vest or even low pro packs.

It's by Ski Area Supplies out of Boulder...

Gotta get low to duck a ropeline tho. And...

Flawless strategery my friend.

LMAO!

FKNA, that's great mag.

Do tell...

I have found a couple of these. PM me if interested.

My suggestion for a cop was mostly to keep the kid safe.

Otherwise they're generally useless to me.

My first thought was def to have a coupla big dudes for backup if needed, and go take it...

I might go this route but I'd get a cop to be stationed around the corner to keep both you and the kid safe, as well as to bust the thief.
Or he could go with ya plain clothed...

It's the 50+ acres that butt up to some serious wild zones. GTNP due east and YNP and USFS/wilderness areas for many miles due NE.
A horse packing type would be in heaven there...
And that area...

Hell yeah man, keep it going! Almost there...anyone can ski a hundo in a fat season. Getting them all in a skinny season is that much more of an accomplishment. You're gonna do it. I have faith.
