    Anyone going from N. Tahoe to Jackson anytime soon?

    Hey Maggots! I’m trying to get a heavy gift to a buddy in Jackson and I could use some help getting it there.

    I made a CNC carved wooden 3D map of the Grand Teton as a gift for a friend who is an Exum guide and a guide / avalanche forecaster at Points North.

    It’s about 25x25x8” and weighs maybe 30lbs. I’d have to build a crate for UPS and it would probably be $400, so I am hoping someone might be headed from here (Truckee) to there (Wilson) sometime in the next month, with an empty backseat.

    Six pack or bottle of Rye from me on pickup and also from him on delivery?Click image for larger version.

    Don't think I'm gonna make it up to JH but I'll probably be going to UT the last week of Jan to see Tool and ski a few days so could possibly get it part way there and hand off to another mag who's headed up that way.
    Gimme a shout if you don't have a better option and I can help.

    If anyobody is coming through Driggs his wife is drawing on me at months end and I can connect the final leg of delivery over the pass.

    It would be awesome if we could get this thing to Dahill somehow. I got one PM from a Tahoe mag who might be making the trip so it's looking like it might be possible.

    Thanks!!

    I've been making these carved maps for a while now for buddies and for fun at our local makerspace. Took me a few years to figure out the process from GIS to CNC. I was toying with selling them but life keeps getting in the way.

    I made this one for Jeremy Jones of the line he skied in Deeper in the Alaska range:

    Cool. If it goes to Utah and ZZZ brings it to the valley I have an apt with Erin on the 29th.
