kickass dog stoke.

Here are a few of my son (BBRidgekid) in the Couloir des Cosmiques from last winter. This was our first time having to rappel into a spot for some turns.

[Kellie]

Hohes, are all those pics from Japan? Wow.

SC, love to see all the Sierra shots, and great to see Gimpy in action - makes me a little nostalgic

I need to get my act together, but I think I can play too . . .

Kellie - unfortunately not Japan. Its around Cham and in Switzerland.

(Hakuba has steep, I just haven't hit it yet)

That must have been a good time. The only chance I was able to attempt it we turned back. This is as close as I got

"Bogners" off Mt. Billy Mitchell. Middle couloir before we hit and
then waiting in a safe zone.

This thread is the place to be. Can we get more international steep stoke, please?

Another drop in the bucket - my teletarded brother deep in the North Cascades during the drought spring of '05.

Sierra Cement, I love how your dog is prancing around on that third pic like it ain't shit while you're hop turning. Classic. Schweet pics too. Actually, a lot of schweet pics here. Great thread!

Nothing special but it was steep and pillowy.

My shots are from '05, '06 and '07. Tioga plateau shot was '05. Looking forward to what Kellie throws out there - maybe some Denali?

BCD - I can pick out most of those lines (or at least the areas), but not quite all of them. I hope everyone fully appreciates the last one BCD posted - the mendel.

And the famous dog is Buddy, he belongs to gimpy. I have more pictures of them then of I do of my own kids.....so says my wife.

wicked steepgnar! I knew this was going to be an awesome thread. Heres one of Atrain from our Summit Chute on Fissile mission.

awesome thread.

heres my contribution


not crazy steep like some of the pics in here, but still fun.

54 degrees as in Temperature? We need guidelines here. It must exceed patch status and run for more than 200 vertical feet. I guess that would exclude every line in colorado, so to be fair we will say 150. Sick Glacier. Ta Ta!

Oh really? Well then, why don't you come to Colorado and I'll show you some 150 ft. flat lines that will make your balls (if you have them) jump up in your throat. Actually, we don't need any more Cali-bro-brah-tool-bag-dip-shit-twin-tip-jibbier-than-God-wanna-be-fart-fuks here. BTW - how's the snow in Tahoe? Nice and fluffy I'm sure.
