There was a good talk about this at CSAW or ISSW or I can't remember with modeling showing how much seasons could shortened under different warming scenarios over the next decades. Even moderate...

It's all good. Danno is old school mag. Hehas helped me out besides being a professional of the subject of a different type than I

Fuck Yea
JS is right, too.

We even have a poster bragging about how enviro groups can paralyze any project on FS land with endless fucking challenges until an acceptable compromise is reached....

amazing!

I thought someone was opening a sizeable mountain out by Steamboat?

When you look at the Front Range of CO, there is not much to open that has reliable snow and good roads unless you wanted to...

No but I have a pair of G3 that were cut to a 192 Lotus 138, so that's basically uncut.

For the record, I'm not anti-solo. I sometimes go solo.

Solo just needs a different mindset because consequences are multiplied while safety factors are reduced vs small groups of good partners....

Those are some very messy statistics except for groups of 5 and larger, where the data is clear between the subgroups (CI don't overlap the reference and the P values are good). The subgroups were...

How do you consider multiple factors in determining avalanche risk when you appear to be capable of only comprehending a single factor in an accident analysis despite having multiple factors...

How many folks are at risk of ending up in court? The ones who are probably know it. These guys knew it while they were still standing on the hill and literally said so on the video footage they...

I have forgotten the leg loop more than once. I'm trying to work on not doing that.

The moment one is going to be in avalanche terrain is the moment you gotta turn on the pack, deploy the trigger,...

Of course violating one of the safe travel rules is a problem that can defeat other best practices.

What partners offer is
1. A second set of eyes and thoughts to buddy check. "Hey I don't think...

Maybe a partner says "we shouldn't be right here."

@Foggy, I stopped using "Brazil Nut Theory" to describe vertical sorting in turbulent flow/granular convection. I learned the term was...

Don't push uphill

Tragic. That zone needs a wide berth. People frequently pass through the runout when moving over to the other side. I can't imagine anyone actually skied the line yesterday.

Do we know any...

Super fun time!

We need half pipe announcers announcing for DH races

guide friend gave some Luther beta

if nobody is available I'll buy myself a buddy pass to Kirkweed, which should be fun too

Yes tlr5 26 and 265 are the same

Alien RS is what you seek. I'm a 265 guy. I am duck footed. I loved tlt5p 275 and alien RS in 275 with 6th toe blows

TBC self extricated with a tibial plateau fracture. Respect!

Let the bootlicking begin!

Dang TahoeBC hope you recover fast!

A deep thanks to all those who offered skis, support, and beta! The mag community comes through. It warmed my heart which is something good in these trying times. :)

I am in South Reno.

Is 2.625 (buying a half point) for a 30yr REFI with cashout no assesor still a good deal for CO? Good credit. The mortgage company (Sebonic/Cardinal) fucked up so much shit they have been working on...

Well what about running these with the heel adjusted 1-1.5cm back past the "stop" on the adjustment track? The heel piece worm gear is fully engaged on the rack on the plate... I mean I don't have a...

I'm on my second season with the Scott E1 40.

I tend to pack a lot being a rescuer and instructor. So, for me it feels small compared to a BCA Float 42 or my 20 year old Osprey Eclipse 42. It...

I remember reading about that like 15 years ago and thinking "oh avalanche followed by hypothermia, paradoxical undressing, and death," but when I looked a map it didn't look steep... interesting...

so sad



mind boggling

Shootin the narrows

^arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh amazing!

What a day to be stuck teaching avalanche :rolleyes2

The issue was not that they were full on a given day, it was just that they didn't want to honor the discount on days that were not yet sold out. :(

Yes. Double down even. Squaw said something about not honoring it due to covid limits on number of tickets so I guess they only want to sell full price? Doesn't seem fair...

I'm not sure where to post this complaint, but: Squaw/Alpine says they will not give A-Basin passholders a discount. So much for that plan. :mad: :(

"Purchase lift tickets at Mountain Collective...

Today was good. I took out the Spats to slay 11" at Key where I know the trees. Lines were not that bad.

What is the status of buying a day ticket if you have pass to another ski hill that had mtn collective mtn half price tix as part of the pass?

Past 8P coming back from DEN and EB 70 looked like hell all the way to the tunnel!

Oumuamua is a slow interloper. It is moving at a slow speed (26km/s) relative to our solar system such that it would take it 50K years to cover the distance to the next closest start to the Sun...

Skinny skis for bc spring were fat pow skis 16 years ago

Hell ya!

I really don't know what is going on with your wife's immune system, so I can't comment specifically. But the only people excluded from the studies were those with severe immunocompromise.

What...

Which one?
