540? What is this the 90's :D jk... that short rotation could be painful on that hardpack I imagine... note to self.... wear body armour. :lol:

:D You gotta love riding in October! :D Looks like the muts are having a blast. Snow actually looks pretty deep in places. I hope you showed that 2 planker how it's done! :twisted: Yup here too, rained all day Saturday... thought I was going to get another foot on what I rode Thursday...

lol :) I know I'm completely ashamed... it's definitly just my rock board. Killclimbz, I think your right, it was berthoud pass. I definitly might take you up on a tour one of these days. Maybe sooner than later if the forecast holds true. Also nice split in your rail, that must have been...

In Santa Fe Big Tesuque is a popular run that gains you about half the vertical by hitching from the base of the aspen grove (2 - miles down from base- you wont miss it) Most common is doing loops with a lift ticket. Big T is a nice gentle glade of open pine at the top and falls down through the...

Anyone care to explain "Jigback?" :?:

Now that's hardcore. :D I bet he could get a ride to Los Alamos and do Pajarito on the same loop 8) I've never had the opportunity to loop. A friend that lived in Jackson a few years told me they had a great loop there. We used to get a half loop on Red Mountain Pass, but it still included a...

Guess my next post will be about using p-tex. :D

:D I must admit I was a victim of peer pressure after seeing Guido and Hamdog's pics. I usually don't even think about going out this early, but the fever around these boards got the best of me. Glad I did though. :twisted: P.S. Loved your bc pics of lovland pass last year, you'll have to...

:D First turns of 05/06 :D Me and the dog climbed up to see what we could find. Got about 500 virtical feet on 1foot of soft settled powder. Got another 500 feet below that on variable rocky terrain and catwalk. Stopped about 2/3 of the way down so the board didn't get totally destroyed. :D...

NOAA ANNOUNCES 2005-2006 U.S. WINTER OUTLOOK :?:

oh god, you guys scored... lucky bastards. The clouds just started to clear off the mountains here and it looks like there is snow down around 8-5 to 9K feet. I started to drive up and check the depth after work, but I can't go till Thursday anyway so .... I would be suprised if it was over a...

:D :D :D :D sweeeeeeeeeeet! Snow! :shock: :? 8) :lol:

:D I want to be that guy on someone elses board 8) ! I've almost torn a rail out of a board in early season conditions... not this early though! Man I would be all over that roller coaster ride right now though. I do have Thursday off and a rock board. Just not sure if I am as zealous as some...

I didn't know the elevation of your resorts. Never been to a resort arount SLC. I would definitly agree on going to Utah and also Idaho. Never ridden those areas, but from what I hear the snow is fantastic... Tough when your stuck travelling timing the powder though... but my guess is it is...

That sounds like a really unique experience, but powder in south america sounds even better. I definitly need to get my butt to Alaska one of these summers soon though. We used to have huge salmon and halibut fish fries when my uncles came back to visit in the summer....mmmm!

I think they are breaking in the demo skiis they rent to Texans! :D

o.k. that settles it, I'm quitting my job... I hope snow has a high vitamin content... :D

Steady rain here all morning, Air temp is still high... looks like wolf creek will be getting a dusting though... :mrgreen: Forcast: Southern Colorado - Wolf Creek pass :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Here is a direct link to the book Snow Sense that Hamdog posted about. Snow Sense at Amazon Thanks for the post hamdog, that looks like a good reference. I also used the firstracks affiliate link so hopefully the Guido will get credit for the purchase.

Having never experienced any type of accident, this is exactly why I think I should look into something organized to get some practice so I at least have a clue. I at least want to get out and practice with my new beacon :) so I am comfortable with it's operation, and I would like to learn more...
