thanks for reminding me why I only buy/sell in person

haven't chatted with Tim recently so not sure if he's leaving too, although I'll admit that one would surprise me, but who knows these days!

he's slinging RE now!

apparently 3/4 WB avy forecasters have quit?

I did forget that Tyax cleared Little Paradise from Manson to Little Graveyard in 2020 which apparently drastically improved things there, but probably wouldn't go further down valley towards Relay!

I did Grant via Taseko drop last September labour day weekend. Not sure if they're dropping at the pass or just down a bit outside the boundary, if at the pass, the first new hundred metres of...

LS Bluffs is cool, the right turn into tree line is a bit bushy as of a couple years ago, doubt it's seen much clearing since 2019, would imagine the west side of spruce peak ridge doesn't have a...

Where are you staying up there, evdog? The more classic windy route is via Taylor and then down Gun Creek. Lick can also be done from Taylor/Eldorado or Camel/Eldorado if you're staying Tyaughton...

I've got that route on my list too since it's pretty easy from Gun Lake to Jewel staging, 99% of that route is probably clear and probably not too hard to get around...judging by some trailforks...

right on! Cheakamus is riding well these days! Zach and I put some work into the southern trail a few weeks ago, hope to get some more done this fall...If you're on that one today, throw a few rocks...

Should be staying at Gun Lake with the family aug 7-14, for a bit of R&R&R and remote work...passes will likely be melting fast with this current heat wave

good on you for going anyway, have seen a lot of comments suggesting people weren't going to go up if they couldn't get a drop and that's a shame since it's such an amazing place to ride regardless....

they like the fall line in the Kootenays! another vote for more is better out there. Make sure Paper Bag's been cut out recently as it's prone to a lot of blow down with every storm that comes...

flew over that yesterday Den-Van, lots of smoke, but source seemed relatively small-ish

thanks for that, finally pulled the trigger on a post and edc/pump

I've actually been to that part of Costa Rica, although 15 years ago now!

had richie last weekend and jesse won, swapped to jesse this week and richie won, lol

very sad outcome...thanks for all your work on Green Monster, Toby, an Alpine favourite for many thanks to the efforts of you, and recently your boys. RIP

ugh, remote area down there too....hoping for the best

missed the part about strava, but the rest is just speculation at this point...probably not far off, but none of that was really mentioned in any of the reports.

I will say that after reading the timeline, I'm very curious how the (alleged) killer rolled up to the place Mo was staying within minutes of her getting back and Strickland leaving....some kind of...

I don't use Insta anymore, and Jack's YT vids are too long for my attention span! hahahaha

at the time safety was a partial consideration, however it's a lot more than that and the project came close to being axed but for some commitments to those that were opposed to bikes being allow up...

I swapped Jack from Jesse after seeing how smooth he looked in practice vid....didn't know he was on recovery, and I thought Kasper would be a great wildcard choice...fack

Hope Kasper's prognosis...

we've got a friends hand me down mac-ride and it's served it's purpose thus far, easy to take on and off quickly and switch between bikes if you have a couple of the steerer tube rings.

gonna be a long walk to get from singing pass to disease ridge

mangled a rear der cage on my gen3 bronson the other day...haven't looked at it that closely yet.........

I had a couple calls first thing and about 10am it popped into my mind but they were already sold out...

I'm 5'9", 0 ape index on a large gen3 Bronson which lists the reach as 459mm in the high setting. Running shortest possible stem (Chromag ranger 31mm) and a 35mm rise bar, and seat slammed all the...

sounds like if 7th isn't broken on any given day, it's open instead of Glacier

the one on my Samurai is into it's 9th season this year, showing it's age, but still rocking!

I had a catastrophic z1 wedge failure with both stanchions snapping off below the crown in 2007 which left me with 3 vertebrae compression fractures, a skull fracture, and a total loss of hearing in...

long covid?! haha TBH, I don't even really remember my last really good spring skiing day, so I'm not one to talk!

granted my spring skiing days haven't happened much in the past couple years <COUGHCOVIDCLOSURECOUGH>, but, is this actually as per usual??

nice!

Sunday was, pretty not great...did a couple laps after skiing with our toddler on the lower mountain, didn't see a lot of value in doing more than a couple.

not even sure that the images were Wayne's as much as other peoples images he posted to the blog, if they were his, then a bit harder to be too upset by the ask imo. I'm sure an inbounds avy fatality...

I don't disagree..I mean, even the skier death in west bowl was being initially described as a "ski incident" by Vail and only later confirmed as an inbounds avalanche.

is Wayne still an employee? but also, vail sucks!

didn't have enough time to wait out alpine opening today, but still decent mid mountain conditions this morning.

180km/h gust on the Peak at 8:30am!

arrrrgggghhhh, bureaucrats scheduling Monday 9am meetings late Friday with a fat forecast....

yup re Fillmore, super simple, effective...I got given them so made the price kinda moot, but I am impressed thus far

hear hear! Bland, soulless, homogenous corporatism.

one of those believe it when I see it situations, but have heard a lot of rumblings from a lot of people plugged into the bike side of WB that they have low expectations when it comes to the long...

lol, the braiding in Squamish would make your head explode (I hate it)...that just looks like someone lost attention for a split second

granted I don't go to handlebar that much since I moved out of town, but damn I was crushed the last time I went and they no longer had the currywurst!
