Been a hell of a winter, been busy at the hill most days. Filling in for lifties as needed, and ticket office much of the time. Crazy how time flies. KC open till this Saturday, about as late as I have ever known. Still very good in the afternoons. Sharpened my edges, made all the difference.
Made a trip or two to see the sights.
Deer butts, and lots of them.

I have a couple of weeks off coming up, maybe some hiking/snowboarding out west of here. The Lems look inviting. Lots of snow still.
One last trip to LTPM, was fun.

Pissed off moose. Got run out from the haystack.

Everytime I drive past that thing I always wonder how it would be to ski that. I know there's some dudes out that way that like to mess with the INL Feds when they go attempt BSB.
Always great to see your photos and keep up with my social media trolling ;)
Two of the three have hatched as of yesterday. Adult male on the left. Larger female to the right.
https://live.staticflickr.com/7835/4...a125655b_b.jpg
Again...if anyone would like to visit these eagles, let me know. If the 3rd egg hatches it should be a busy season for the adults...
Some more of my artwork. Tate at LTPM. Hollywood Bowl.

it has been great to see Life through Big Lost's thread... Thank you ! !!
driving on... tj
I will get some posted in a day or so. I've been so busy with lawns and gardens. The eagles are about ready to fledge, and will be gone soon. There is a Redtail nest in Trent's backyard. Got a few shots of them to post....
KC will open this coming Saturday for Mountain biking. They will operate Thursday, Friday and Saturdays. I'll be there working the rental shop and/or lift 4.
Tate and I headed for Meadow Lake cirque on Sunday if weather cooperates. Photos to follow.
Right now am camping with wifey and grandkids. Good times.
Happy to hear that you're well, LBL. Enjoy a splendid summer!

Took Liam and floated part of the Snake. Was a good day. No fish were caught, but that hardly mattered.

Thank you ! Big Lost ! !! (tj)
just wishing you would share some more. one of the great threads in this place, know things change tho...
Oh, can do.
Let me see where we left off.
Ok, took a trip up to Meadow lake in search of snow. Too little, we left it too late.

Took the whole family up so it it was an half hearted attempt this year. Will make an effort to go earlier next year, and just me and Tate. I can tell you my wife and Tate's wife could give a rats ass about snowboarding, let alone snowboarding in the middle of the summer, but hey, that is why we are leaving them home next time.

Have been working KC this summer. Open for mountain biking. Have hit the hill a half dozen times. As fun as it is, and as old as I am, ima stick to the white shit for my thrills. I go down real easy on snow, not so much on rock and dirt. My left shoulder hurts enough as it is. Besides ....snowboarding is wAy cooler.

TJ (skij) came out west for what seems to be a yearly thing now. Had fun. Ran up to Targhee to beat the heat. Was successful.

Said he would see me again in March at Lost Trail. I am planning that shit already. I'll try to find some cheap lodging and spend a few days. I, for one, cannot wait till winter. Fuck this 95 degree everyday bullshit.

The boys and I are building decks out of recycled pallets. One for each of us. This one is Trent's. Overlooking the goats, pigs, cows and chickens. And the distant mountains.

:yourock:
Great pictures! I really need to get over to Meadow Lake. Have you ever explored Rocky Canyon when you pass through there? I guess the trail head isn't that far from Lone Pine. It is on my list to go check out too this fall.
