    He is a skilled carpenter, works in Big Sky making $$$, stays in his Hill Condo. Goes to Butte and lives like a king. Something like 12 bedrooms and zero insulation. Costs three grand a month to heat.

    Ripping skier, Bunion probably knows him, been in Big Sky about 20 years. he skis 203 Volkl Shiros. EZ guy to spot in the lift line. Might be the same guy Bunion is talking about ?

    Homestake south east of butte handles moisture pretty well. XC for sure but cool terrain.
    a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Apparently all of Bozeman thinks below the dam is the spot...


    I'm amazed how much snow melted from Friday afternoon to sat night. It was a fun weekend hanging in a certain drainage. Big moon, dogs, bears, and moose.

    SUF if you want to fish with 2 dogs and me rowing I'll let ya know next time we're floating.

    If I'm catching dinner, tossing worms to brookies in Hyalite creek is big fun.

    When I lived over near hyalite I would fish the creek 3-4 days a week. Brookie fish tacos are hard to beat. However I found that before I left(3-4 yrs ago) I was catching way more rainbows than brookies.

    You're asking in this in a forum that pounces on people for openly discussing non-stellar backcountry outside of Helena.

    Find water, throw in a line, maybe you'll catch a fish, maybe you won't. It's always good to get out.

    Try the East Gallatin just up the road from MAP Brewery, it's basically your civic duty as a new Bozeman resident.

    So we rode Pipestone Pass to Homestake Pass to Maud S. Found some snow for sure, but also some lovely singletrack. If I were high grading, I'd go Homestake north towards the high point out and back. Snow on degrading granite doesn't seem to make mud though.

    My go-to back in the day was axtell's, shed's and cameron's. It was mostly quiet then but who knows now.

    Is that the 1st time you have ventured up that way? Lots more where that section ends.

    No, Dan's been here a lot this fall so had this ride planned for when we had 2 rigs. Poked around a bit up by Thunderbolt on our Montana road trip in September, on the way to Alpine 7. Open to suggestions as always though.

    Other rides off I15 I have done are now closed to bikes due to being in Wilderness study areas, PM if you want info on those.

    Nice picture of that statue! Getting yelled at while enjoying the outdoors must be part of the "new" MT. Next will be releasing a pack of angry yorkies to chase us away.

    Sweet, this is the zone I was talking about. I somehow left out the pipestone pass part…

    Corbly was absolutely perfect yesterday and today. Anyone know what else might be ridable/dry right now around Bozeman?
