Damn that looks nice. I need to find someone to show me around Bolton, I've spent 2 days there futzing around and the only good thing I "found" in the back / sidecountry was the gash at the top. And anyone can see that.Quote:

some fun stuff off of a mtn just to the ese and a ridge to the ne as well. that area is best suited for waxless lighterweight gear with kicker skins as backup. zero transitions that way. more laps and area covered in shorter time.

Nice vid.
It really shows how much easier Markers are than Dynafiddles. :wink:
...especially if you try to mount your own Quiver Killers and you fuck up the hole drilling (as I did).Quote:

please know:
The mountain cannot provide any tools. You can operate your own saws and chain saws as long as you have safety gear such as hard hat, glasses and chaps and leather boots, steel toe preferred as required. and common sense.
It would be super if a few people comfortable with their use could bring a chain saw- WITH GAS :wink:.
SEE YOU THERE / THEN

Crush coffee beans with a pair of linesman pliers to start some joe, where is that Primus? Wind is roaring outside with on and off rain.
Get a call at 8 that a roof I prepped for a standing seam roof has lost some tarpaper and now leaking. Client miffed I did not respond to their e-mail from 12 am. Went over to fix this by adding a new layer of paper in the wind driven rain. Off to the next job and step back in the living room and feel something crunch, look down and find a half dead Deconed mouse. Set a fucking trap, OK.
Get a call from my granite vendor that another client [from Ma] is driving them crazy over their countertops, get this straightened out and confirm measurements, wish them "good luck" as she is on her way to Vt to look a different slabs they have brought in for veiwing.
EVERY SINGLE FLAKE OF SNOW HAS MELTED OFF THE HILL
The slate floor I grouted yesterday looks awesome and I sealed it, will be installing the new wood in their mudroom tomorrow. Installed the finish scribe piece on new kitchen, looks great, Ma. woman should be happy on my end.
Fuck I need a drink.
[/end blog that's what's up]
^^^^^^^pretty bold to only tar paper roof with wind and rain in the forecast. no tarps in vt? client too cheap for bituthene? guess that'd be way overkill with standing seam, but aren't the mcmansions all over vt, overkill?:fm:
all snow gone. well it is pre-mid january.
love the blog dood. i got work to do:D
i hate tiling.
rog
Anyone else heading up to Platty tomorrow? I couldn't take Lemmy up on the ride offer tonight, so I'd be solo tomorrow. Hit me up if you're interested.
Client is an old friend, house is a hippy built freakshow that I have been attempting to save from water ingrees and carpenter ants for yhe last 15 years, certainly no "mcmansion". Bitch is really overkill for standing seam and no way to get a tarp on this area [see hippy built]. I have all of the tools [crimpers, benders,nibblers] and have done a couple of SS roofs in the past but the combo of the house being built on a rocky knob with horrible access and no current quality roof monkees available to assist I passed on this job.Quote:

Still MTB...glad I brought the folding saw. An hour in the trail was blocked by a 25'-30' oak blown over by yesterday's winds. Fixed it, rode another hour. It was warm...looks like cooler weather returns after we set the clocks back.
Hiked Mansfield today via the LT, then traversed to the cliff trail and down Gondolier.
Still some snow on the chin in places.

^^^^^^tonight should be a great night for burning:)

Getting in late better than never. Canaan Valley had a good 3-4" dump last weekend but just not worth the slidin. Looked really nice. Thankfully not the 38" we had last year with major power outs.
I'm gonna go carve some lines down the hill in the backyard! Unfortunately they'll be lines in the leaves carved with the blower :tongue:
Gonna take the new fatbike out this afternoon for an inaugural dirtyin' up :biggrin:
Seems like some mags took advantage of the warm day, shouldn't waste an opportunity. Short sleeve and shorts for MTB yesterday and still sweating uo a storm. Joined surface and the Driven One for a Denny long > twist fest ride at noon. Shitload of wood on the ground from the windstorm, moved some, road over some and deflected into a small tree by some. mashed my left hand and fucked up my pinkie, oh well. Fun was had.
bush fired up around 8pm up high and some frost occured at elevation overnight, guns still going on Jester, should get to Heavens Gate in 10>12 days.
34.4` and sunny, beautiful day bob
Well ridden steeds at Wu Ledges
