RIP tone capone

[garyfromterrace]

Shit, fuck. Vibes ghost hop and all who knew him....

Ride in peace Tone.

[wordbird]

Man this is so sad. I read SW montana thread this morning, and when I saw capone's name i felt really upset. Never met him, but he did pm me some great beta about Troots, still planning on making a trip there this spring. He seemed like a really nice fellow, i hope he rides eternally in ullr's blessed snow.

No words are adequate.

Ski in Peace Tony.

[CascadeLuke]

Rest in Peace

Terrible news. I Always enjoyed his posts, he was obviously a maggot that lived the life and got after it. RIP

Well said hick, Tony's stoke was infectious, he inspired and will be missed by more folks than he could have imagined.

Damn gonna miss you Tony, the BB community lost one of our own yesterday, hurts bad.

So cheers to you, tone-loc, pole-whacks, fist-bumps, and cold-smoke homie😓

Rest in peace, sir, and thanks for the stoke.

Another stellar day in the war on powda.

Starring the Dozamonster:













His avalung is his pacifier:



He loves the dank forest:







He lays waste to the pretty meadows.







Good till the last turn. Team Rosa's represent.

Wow, such a great week last week, I missed today, but the last 3 were great. Got to ski alot of my favorite stuff and new stuff too. Got a ton of pics, mostly sidecountry, but I think I'll start a new thread.

Here is a cool sequence of my buddy Troy's first run down Northwest direct. He came in a little hot and it wasn't pow, but he ripped out of it Bridger Style:















The old ski hill was looking mighty fine on Wednesday.

Laughter and public ridicule are encouraged... Better now than during the inevitable multiple body recovery. Keep that shit in Mundy's bowl where you're only gonna slide over slanted rocks on your way to your 7 gay flat bowl turns.

Here's a fun one for ya:

Word, word. That place will keep a brotha comin' back fo sho.

A few more of Ryan:







He's not a bad photographer either.

A lot of snow. I measured 40 inches up high, easily three feet mid mountain. Yesterday was boggy and slow, today was more floaty, skied much better as it settled in I think. Skiing the top 6 to 12, but I love that kind of snow. Hard to believe how deep into winter we just got in 36 hours. I won't be able to make it up, but I imagine there are some hot lines still to be had. Rip it up.

Continued thread hijack:

I was just so stoked to ski in Slushmans on a great day without the lifts running again.

First tracks weren't bad:



Colter was stoked:



As was Will:



Deep:





Mike's second time skiing powder, first time on a real ski setup:



Will:





This is for all those who shame their families by carving out the most hideous gaper trench in North America. Sure is beautiful today.



Still plenty of elbow room:



Happy Place:



This is Emily:





See Emily Rip:





I love tilted limestone in all it's forms. Preferably smothered in perfect spring powder:











Snow started sliding around from the sun so that was all. Got to ski a sweet little spine that I never got on before, really nice. I bet Saddle was amazing, but I just love the terrain in Slushmans proper when it's good.

This was a great storm. Most perfect snow I could ever ask for, here's to picking up where we left off last Mayuary!

Weak sauce compared to the ^^^^^^^Helmet cam action there, but stoke nonetheless. Gives me more to strive for in life thanks guys!

Pics are from 27th.

The nose direct looked sic.



Ptarmigan/Avy Gulch were fun all the way down for a few laps:







Fun tracks abounded everywhere! No grass or rocks encountered.



A gift:



Our investment!



Drool drool:



This run was so fun.













Rolling up to this first was sweet! Sorry guys. Even the shoulders looked like AK spines.



I kid you not.



Mid season fun on the first snowfall!











My buddy T-roy was stoked. He just kept on rippin, huge smile on his face. I just wanted to share that with y'all, as I was amping out of my mind on Oct 27th! Can't wait for more

Sure has been nice. Pnut and I went up the other day and it was great. Too fun for pics really, but I managed to snap a few. Perfect snow, couldn't ask for any better right now!

Like taking a little trip back in time.









Pnut skimmin' some milk:



It was really good fun and that's all I know.

No bump after today's gangbang? You all must be worn out or drinking or something. Party on, can't wait for tomorrow.

MildWille gets in on the action:



Such a fun run that was:



Pnut:







Later buddy:



Wille and I had a great run down Broom Closet/Test Face to finish the day. So pumped on how good it was. Too good to mess around more with the camera. Cheers!

On another note, this spine is about the coolest looking feature in my immeidate universe. Does anyone know if it's been skied? How I would love to catch that in good condition, if it's even possible. Drool drool drool.

Looks like you found some good stuff, way sicker day than I had!



Just outside, easy skin laps. More fun stuff like this:





Sweet!
One of my favorites! Check it out in February 08:



That's gonna get good again this year,

Helmet cam that one for me and I'll be stoked!

and some version of this one if you could conditions permitting:



Shred that shit fellas! Band together, document the slaying of the GNAR!

Great Bridger stoke. Thanks, Tone, later brother.

[powdork]

I'm another one he showed around when I visited Big Sky back in 2010. Seemed like a genuinely nice guy excited about where he lived.






and one he snapped of me. he seemed to always have the camera handy.

[ill-advised strategy]

I hope his family and friends know he was loved by a lot of strangers who appreciated his posts here.

It's so very sad. Please be safe out there, these avy deaths are the worst.
