    Sorry, never saw your post or I could have showed you around a bit, but it wasn't exactly difficult the last two days to find the goods anyway, was it?

    Nice hucks

    yeah, that place kicks ass
    we didnt even make it to Teo bowl and most of the Peel was closed, stuck mostly in Third bowl, which was nice
    cant wait to make it back and do some more exploring
    Monday was frustrating b/c nothing opened, due in part to Warren Miller filming
    if you watched the snowboarder frontflip that is the WM camera crew standing above us, after he flips you can kinda sorta see a few chick rippers across the gulley. pretty sure it was W. Fischer, Ingrid, and Lindsay ripping over there
    sick mtn though, might find myself there next year
    hope it keeps dumping for you

    Am I seeing that front flip vid corectly?
    It looks like he one foots it. If so he gets extra gnarly points.

    I went to CB last year and eyeballed a couple of those same cliffs, all of the landings were instant death or serious injury.

    Good show.

    The police never find it as funny as you do.

    i over-rotated all the spins off of the cliffs, and didnt cleanly stick the straight air in the vid, but did ski out of it
    first hit on the big boy we all stomped
    backflip 1 of 2 stomped
    jamie cleaned most everything
    i did lose a pole too
    i spent alot of time on my ass though, that is for sure, which was frustrating
    first hits over about 15' all year though, so im not too pissed
