Here is how I see this going.
Someone posts a picture of a face.
You highlight your safe zones in green as well as your decent route.
Then label hazards/terrain traps in red.
Then the person below you critiques your route and posts a picture of there own.
Hopefully this makes sense and if it doesn't then Ill let this sink.
Ill start.

you should probably give some more information about the snowpack(i.e. 24" fresh, high danger, wind at 15mph from the left) because that will influence the route choice.

Hey guys, here's my decent rout on the first picture showen. I don't have much "big mountain" back country experiance but this is my attempt. I highlighted the convex roll over in my line because it looked like to me the area where a avalanche would be most likly to start. Critique away.

I like your first route down the chute to the safe zone on the lookers right. from there you seem very exposed if something does slide not to mention is seem as if your in a gully like terrain trap. The convex roll over could be a good place to throw in a ski cut if you suspected a soft slab. Originally Posted by stevenc

Heres another one."The idea wasnt for me, that I would be the only one that would ever do this. My idea was that everybody should be doing this. At the time nobody was, but this was something thats too much fun to pass up." -Briggs

The terrain game
After seeing the screen shoots, some interesting notes:
-It appears there is now a special background for each brother, very well done if I might add.
-Apparently the new areas that where added where addits in each sister chamber
EDIT -What the hell did you guys did to Mongolfier?
Overall I think 75 is good. What do you guys at IPL think?---------------------
