Aren't you cold, young man?
Great TR, and I like the way your skis match your shirt. :D
I don't know what's cooler, that line or goldenboy's hat, both of them just reek with steeze. Simply floored.
NF N Maroon is not a line that I would have thought about skiing without climbing it first, but: 1- I had picked the brains of my friends who skied it just a week ago. 2- I had their photos in my pocket. 3- We could still faintly see their tracks.
Mantraskier, Snowmass looks good, it's visible behind Jordan in one of the summit shots.
Awesome- youve done Fritz proud.
I always tell goldenboy it's important to match. He bought everything to match his ski boots ;)
The first time I think I saw goldenboy pull out that hat, I think we were on Elbert or something, about this time last year. I told him he looked like a 40-yr old in that hat. :wink: I'm not kidding either, I really did tell him that! :biggrin:
Nice! That looks burly for sure. I know just how you feel Brittany!
goldenboy,
you can't have many 14ers to go. way to knock another hudge line off the list.
homeboy with the safari hat, white socks, and white sneakers = KIR
What line?
You guys are in just another league! :yourock: :yourock:

Yeah GB! That has so much less snow on it this year... way to make it go! I got lucky on my first try last year... good airy time. I am so stoked for you.
Wow! No really, wow.
Ummm, problem with 40?? Soon enough for you kiddo, especially with good sense like you showed up there.
It's not that bad. You would have no problem skiing it at all. Dawson's book says the max angle is 48, but I think it might even be less than that.
On the other hand, it is super exposed and any long fall would be really really bad. The group that included donpedro/cjw/agave afish had someone take a head-downhill fall near the top and barely stopped. Maybe one of those guys will talk more about that, it sounded really scary.
Great TR.
Best pictures of confounded tourists ever!
