Hey guys,
I'll start off by saying I'm aware that there's a very similar thread posted on this same forum, but I wasn't seeing much of a response and I also have some different things I wanted to discuss.
My name is Matt, I'm 24 years old, and I moved out here last May from Morgantown, West Virginia after graduating from school (though I'm originally from Philadelphia). I have a huge passion for the mountains and generally any activity that involves wilderness or the outdoors.
I'm new to touring (maybe that's why no one responded haha) so I'd be looking for a partner/partners who could help show me the ropes. I've taken some steps to gain prior knowledge of the backcountry by reading an Avy book, practicing my beacon, and well as attending seminars, so I do have a small foundation of knowledge to build on.
I work graveyards so I'M AVAILABLE TO TOUR ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. The only catch is that on Thursdays, Friday's, Saturday's, Sunday's I would prefer to to be back early (3pm) so I can get to bed for work at 10pm...Monday Tuesday Wednesday I'm off so no time restrictions.
Lastly, I ride up at Bird almost everyday....I've really taken advantage of the in bounds touring gates but I NEED to venture into White Pine Canyon through the Gad 2/White Pine Gate. Is anyone who also rides at bird looking for touring partners through the White Pine gait on a daily basis?
Hopefully this sparks a nice conversation. I'd like to get in as many tours and meet as many new friends as I can before the season is over.
My number is:
(six 1 zero) three zero 8- one 5 five six
Happy Shredding,
Matt
