Sure, that does make up the bulk of the OR show, but the rest is just people fluffing and whoring themselves.Quote:

As a sponsored athlete I am forbidden to discuss any reports of fellatio or cunnilingus.

It is surely an event that needs a Hunter S. Thompson Fear and Loathing-style expose.
Bring me the fucking golf shoes!

Suggesting a Fear and Loathing expose would require a Cadillac Eldorado, Drugs and a lawyer. Maybe we should pm rontele?
You guys in Salt Lake have it all.
I've always thought of it as more of a dog and pony show.Quote:

Twas Backseat Awareness Day in scotties bowl today. That is one vicious crust underneath. Great skiing on 10" of dense pow as long as you stayed centered. Put any weight on your heels or cut too hard and it's nails on a chalkboard.
Lower angled shortswing quakies skied pretty damn well a bit wind jacked on ridge. Decent bonding on small steeper test slopes.
talk slower please:)Quote:

If it gets too bad, remember to shoot yourself outside. Less messy for those who may still care.
:biggrin:
Preferably not in Salt Lake County too. ;)Quote:

I think that slide is what's still showing from the massive one that released with the gun the morning after the rain.
Nope...the Misses called me from the room and is giving me running commentary...the first was a point release from a ski turn. Anyway..prob. have another repeat of yesterday on the way for Fri-Sat. hopefully.
Holly is very cool! Met her yesterday when I was re-glueing skins (hellish task). She was the only person that had a clue what I was doing. Anyway I am looking forward to getting out and about with her and you. :) I still can't walk in my AT boots because my pinkie toe is jacked up, but I will still tour with heavier alpine gear, albeit more slowly. And hopefully be able to rock the dynafits in a week or so.Quote:

If ya'll got a FaceBonk account you can watch my video of East Bowl from yesterday here; http://www.facebook.com/#!/video/vid...97150&comments
I'm done dealing with YouTube's copyright bullshit and I'm not gonna pay to use Vimeo's premium shit (all my video's are over their allowed 500mb, 1 per week BS)... If I ever can get under that 500mb (not looking for suggestions :fmicon:),I'll post em to Vimeo.
Or I guess if you have to, you can watch it without sound on YouTube; [nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oA4M1UgUClk"]YouTube - East Bowl Silver Fork on a Venture Splitboard[/nomedia]
What was the name of the first track? Pretty good stuff.
It will eventually, even if this little storm didn't. They just look like a lot of big sluffs, although it is discouraging that things didn't bond better. I assume that area may have gotten wind-loaded a bit too, so there was probably more going on than just 15 inches of 10% snow laid gently upon an ice/rime crust.Quote:

great pow in hidden canyon and off claytons - wind slab will slide
Good skiing out there considering we got a major rain event not too long ago. Some wind damage above 10k. One shooting crack noticed on a NE aspect above 10k. Rain crust made for fast superman like booting.

re: The Wolvie slide: Even I knew it was going to slide while I was drinking beer in a park under a bridge in Seattle in the rain.
Some little critter stomped that drop!

Whoever made this, nice $$$$$$$$ We followed that skinner and when we got within 50 ft of the ridge.....
http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...keCreek-10.jpg
Whumpf! Felt the slope collapse and saw it had fractured about 600 ft wide on facets below the rain crust :eek:
http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...keCreek-13.jpg
Some brahs from Brighton walked by a few minutes later and we warned them about what just happened. They didn't seem to care one bit. In fact one of them (sounded like he was from the South) said it was just the sun warming the slope up and they proceeded to drop a steep chute nearby :fmicon:
ya! lets hear it for the brighton crews. fearless without reason!
ha, getting my pro photogs mixed up.
wolvy laps on fresh boiler plate and fresh slab seem like a great idea! the more extreme the line the better the outcome. :rolleyes2
at least everyone made it out with all their limbs!
Found a set of earbuds Sunday morning (Jan 23). 2nd gas pump from the road, 7-11 at the mouth of BCC. Probably lost between 9:00-9:30.
My guess is that they may have fallen out of a jacket or passenger-side door.
If they are yours, describe em and I'll find a way to get them to you.
went up cardiff ridge, saw a couple people trying to send it on this cliff , wonder who it was
http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._7565458_n.jpg
massive slide on east castle, looked like it may have stepped down too as there was a crown at the top (to maybe the rain crust), and then another deeper crown about halfway down. its probably 600 feet wide
most likely from control work but hey....
Here's the silent vid from today.. Bluebird EPICness bests describes today's conditions:fmicon:, but seriously the East faces that we rode rode superb with no funki-ness whatsoever noted. West facing ridges were bulletproof and quite slick, careful on those skins.
The picture of the skinner was the only place that was a bit sketch...
