Thanks for setting me straight on that - guess I was fooled by the low angle and the close follow. Very cool perspective, a real closeup look at the skier's technique.Quote:

Warm gusty winds and high clouds today kept the snow tasty top to bottom. http://www.tgrmedia.com/i.ashx?w=800...ap_730X550.jpg
It's worth it, great varied rock with a lot of good texture, even though I'm a hack at rock climbing. We'll be back, for sure.Quote:

A doggie POV might be pretty interesting, Powdork I wonder if you could figure out a way to attach one to Nacho? :biggrin:
^You'd have to film that at 60fps and then re-adjust the rate down to 2/3 speed or something ... otherwise we'd all be throwing up and sick just trying to keep up with wtf is going on in the video ;)
Yup. Pumping surf, no wind and 70F on the cliff at noon thirty. Cali does deliver.Quote:

according to the radar it was (and still is) just a little above the lake
It was raining at my house at 6,200 ft all night and still is. But looking at the trees, around 6,500 ft is snow line.Quote:

Long story short, the last of my hiking buddy's is getting married so we got a cabin in Truckee to drink beer and ski. We are going to stay up late and drink too much. So I'm hoping to find a local hill we can yo-yo, drink beer at the top and bottom, not get lost. No dawn patrols, no Gnar avi path, just some place some hungover, middle aged hacks can skin and ski?
80 offramp???
Snowing hard at 7800, and wet.
In Meyers it was raining lightly in the morning, but in the last hour it's cooled from 38 to 36 F and is snowing moderately hard.
Too lazy/hungover to drive to kwood today--any mags have a report?
i think longshortlong's brief was from the valley
Confirmed. A good layer of spackle is being applied now. The base layer remains edgable, so this should set us up for whatever Ullr brings.Quote:
