Looks like a slippery rappel, but hey who can deny a free shower.
I bought some for stuff like this. Then I stand at the car and debate on bringing them. Then, when on an exposed ridge, I bitch about them being in the car:DQuote:

Crackhead. Climbs twice as fast as everyone else, and then has to fucking keep doing something while waiting on the ridge. Crampons and a handcrack? Sit down, my man:

TH traversing above the line to be skied. We actually were already at the entrance, but he ran back and forth seven times before taking the skis off his back. I just sat and stared in awe:

(Insert rad action shots.)
At the bottom, 50m from the road. A group of three moose have been living at Lisa Falls for at least a month now. Keep your eye out for them when you drive up LCC. Saw one of them take off just as we approached, and skied through their very fresh bed/toilet:

Peakbagadventureski complete.
TR, however, incomplete. Post more pics TH! I can't believe you didn't put up the sequence of me falling down the other waterfall, or the goat or the moose.
Kinda makes the Y cooler look like a warm up run. Proud line gents.Quote:

Solid, just solid
This keeps me rehabing. Thanks guys.
Then again it seems that posting two, even three TRs for just a single outing is the way to really step this internet abuse thing to a higher level.Quote:

Too bad we didn't get any shots of the psycho that picked up Alto and I when we hitched for a ride. Passing people and going about 80 mph in LCC, only to pull over 2 minutes later to drop us off at our cars near Tanners. I think TH got a little nervous when he recieved the text from Alto saying, "he is trying to kill us." :D
Bump for another year of bagging peaks. Where you been TH? We need to bag some on the bikes too before the snow falls.
Solid stuff!
awesome line -great job! skied it probably 15 years ago and have very fond memories - did it by going up tanners and ascending the east ridge of o'sullys, great ridge climb, sooo fun and avoids the creepy broads fork hanging scariness!
sweet....
Nice self-bump, Jtrue! We really are rad.
You guys'll have to come visit me in WA. We'll make 4,500' look like the approach.
