    Charlie is comfortable, but I see the end is close. We give her lots of scratches, she loves it behind her ears, back of head and neck. She is loved and she knows it. We built her a ramp to make it easier to get down off the back porch, but she is afraid of it, preferring to negotiate the 3 steps.

    Did a DNA test on her a while back, turns out she is part Lab and Stumpy Tailed Blue Healer with just a touch of Boxer. Tail naturally 'docked'.
    We found another pup of similar ancestry. His name is Hank. Charlie is teaching him how to be a good boy.

    .....go out and make this season the best season of your life. Ski that line, take that trip, slide that rail, make that leap, live for the moment, and make memories with friends that’ll last a lifetime, because as a great man once said, “If you don’t do it this year, you’ll be one year older when you do.”

    Was a great day yesterday. Still feeling the vibe today.

    Blizzard conditions yesterday early morning on the way. The portion of road near Gilmore Summit nearly impassable. Still managed to keep it on the road. Bare roads from Leadore on to the pass. Snowing heavily when we arrived at the parking lot and continued snowing for several hours. Then the sun came out. Oh joy!

    Couple more shots from Sunday. Was my best day of the season. The snow, the company, and the general vibe from everyone on the hill. Wasn't crowded, no lines and no wind.

    Tate has taken it upon himself to buckle me in occasionally. I am still able to easily do it myself...but the right knee is starting to give me issues. I'm nearly 67 so I don't argue and happily let him. :-)

    This is still far and away the best thread on tgr ever.
    Vibes to Charlie, hope he's doing well. I have a 15 yo who's still hanging tough.
    Great video. The Centennial's have been my playground my whole life, love that place.
    Spent many a night there, alone in a tent hoping and praying old man grizz don't come knocking.
    Hunting kicks ass.
    Chicks dig Labs.
    I'll keep my job, my money and my guns and you can keep the change.

    Bears... I have a love/hate relationship them. Will not camp in Island Park or nearby vicinity. But that's ok. Bears need a place too, I'm just not going to sleep in the woods with them anymore.

    Got the Ninja out the other day. There really hasn't been many days to ride. Don't know about over there, but this side has been windy as hell almost every frickin day. Sucks.

    As soon as it gets nicer, perhaps meet at Hoback Junction and go have lunch in Pinedale.

    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 sketches me out when the rear end breaks free.

    Ass hauling out on the flats sounds good.

    The Sushi is such a unique and fun ride. Looks like you’re enjoying it!

    I've got about 6 weeks before I head to the fires this year. I have a hunch that it will be a long and gruesome season. I plan to get 100 days in. Last year I put in 75 before it was over. Boss suggesting a $100 a day raise for me also. I'll take it.

    So....we better go in the next month or so. Ought to be a nice day sometime! I'd love to visit brewery and Museum. I know I've wanted to visit for the Mountain Man museum for years.

    Also, does not have to be a weekend for me. I'll stay in touch...

    Yes, what a fun ride it is. Very short. Very fat. Very responsive. I've ridden a lot of different boards over the years, never really thought any of them were much different from the other. Some subtle differences here and there, but not a huge amount. The Sushi? HUGE amount.... touchy f'er. Doesnt take much to get a response and in the beginning took a bit of adjustment. I am still learning, but loving every minute of it.

    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 Pinedale...

    Thanks. Yes, it is a cool shot. What you can't see is the fire raging just out of the photo. I have video that I will post as soon as I get a chance. This fire is big and nasty.

    It's crazy out here. Wind has blown the fire up. 20 to 50 mph every day. Worked till 3am last night. Up at 7:30. Dang. Haven't pitched a tent yet....sleeping in the pickup every night.
