    Of course, in these parts, you gotta pay to play; minor epic on the hike out battling ski-on-pack unfriendly b.c. bush, black flies, mosquitos, horseflies and prit near 30 degree heat.
    Short Sleeve couloir slaying I like it.

    Has anyone mentioned Forever Young in Rogers Pass?


    My favorite in the Pass is probably Lone Pine proper. It starts as a tight, steep committing couloir, and funnels into a perfectly pitched slide path. Its 1,400 vertical metres of sustained fall line from top to bottom. Photo from Doug Sproul's Rogers Pass guidebook.

    Always swore off TC since it is so hyped but finally ticked it off this past weekend. Pleasantly surprised with good snow, no other parties and a super easy approach. Not the steepest line by any means but deserving of its legend.

    ’57 Chevy in the Beartooths is a personal favorite albeit not the best in NA by any stretch.

    I talk shit, but its only cause I secretly love it. Nice work getting it with good snow! Seems like the creek crossing is often the hardest part haha

    That one is sick. With how close it is to the TH you'd think it might get hit more, but that TH is still a ways from much. Went out to ski it one time, got the timing wrong. Did the sweet 'little' line across the creek from it though instead, what a hoot. Always love that zone.

    Definitely one of the favorite couloirs I've gotten to ski through.
    I think the potato gun proved the stability.

    Drove to 500m from trailhead then a washout stopped us. Fuck Tomahawking that thing would be nightmarish, Im guessing he somehow avoided going skiers right off the top! all the sluff while skiing went to the bad place. Glad to hear he survived fuck that would be scary!

    Shit, well glad to hear he can still get out and is making the best of it. That would have been an absolute brutal crash. Would love to link up some time. No sled here but hold a toe rope pretty good haha. Based In Louise/Golden depending on the season but love a good road trip mission.
