Don't come to Taos for da powder,
Don't come to Taos for da steeps,
Don't come to Taos for Kachina Peak,
Don't come to Taos.

Links aren't TR's. Copy pasted with a "see more" linking to your blog isn't a TR. If you want people on TGR to care, put in the effort and do some original writing on here.

Take a deep breath.
Then write a TR. Sounds interesting.

I for one am not too lazy to click a link. Glad I did. Nice list of peaks you got going. I clicked through a bunch of them. Cool stuff, keep it up.

[AKbruin]

I thought it was cool.

Personally, I'm grateful for any TR these days. It's not like this page is brimming over with a huge number of new TRs. I also prefer the TR to appear in the actual thread and not via links. But beggars can't be choosers, and more TRs are better than fewer.

Thanks yeahman! I am glad you enjoyed the my website. Happy turns! Zach

AKbruin and yeahman, Thanks for the comments and thanks for reading the TRs. I am glad you enjoyed them. I do agree that more TRs are better than fewer. There is very little written on the internet regarding the area I am writing about above so I thought I would link it here. I always find it interesting how people can be so much more immediately disrespectful on the internet than they would in person. Case in point above. Social constraints and human culture are an interesting thing. While I understand that people appreciate trs being written on the actual site being posted to, I just am not going to write three trip reports for three different sites. I have no interest in being a pro rider. I am not here trying to make it big or get a sponsorship. I have a good career and I climb and ride what I want when I want, as a consequence of this not being my job. I enjoy sharing my stories, pictures and video just to share them with others so I linked it here and am glad some appreciate it. I think I will download a couple photos here for future trs as that will help with the negative nancys out there (did not think about that when posting) but I am not writing multiple trs for multiple sites. However I will link my trs to multiple sites so that those that are looking for info on a particular mountain have easier access to the info. Those that get butt hurt about it can go wrap their ski tips around a tree on a green run at Vail and snow plow head first into a tree well. TGRs editors/site moderators can delete it if they don't like it and past that all I hear is white noise. I use multiple sites to search trs and always appreciate the links to personal sites, in large part because many of the private links are from people that are really getting after it and they offer a wealth of information. You kind of have to be doing at least a decent bit to have a viable personal site and that is value added to ski/snowboarding databases. Thanks for reading and happy turns! Zach

I just typed skiing lake fork peak into google and got over four pages of relevant info and TRs before I quit clicking. It's probably one of the most well-known and most often hit backcountry shots in NM. A nice morning jaunt.

I don't have any problem with TRs, though I'd rather see them written here (hint; copy and paste), and I'm glad you had fun, but to set the record straight there isn't a lack of interwebz info about skiing Lake Fork.

I know. We'll hit Sin Nombre, or some of the side chutes, or maybe even something in the Truchas.
