HH Big Mountain Battle has just announced a stop at Kicking Horse March 24

http://www.bigmountainbattle.com/

The finals are in Aspen the next day? HH should fly the winners of the KHMR even to Aspen via private jet!

[Huckin eh?]

Very nice shot. Bootpackers not postholing the skin track! Or was it a classic case of the first skin track getting raped and a second one being set?

Anyone at KH tomorrow? Could use some riding partners. Peak Performance, red on top, blue on bottom, black pack, give me a shout.

I was thinking I should probably get off my ass and head up tomorrow. Lack of powder is killing my motivation, haven't done a damn thing since tuesday. Look back a couple pages for a pic of my getup.

Wanna head out for the day Sunday. Most likely alone but want to either do KH slack or a nice tour somewhere. Anyone planning on doing either tomorrow that wouldn't mind me joining? Otherwise I am going to try and set a personal vertical record inbounds, not my favorite, but has its own masochistic pleasure to it.

I could do with some KH slack.

Think I saw you today, ON3P skis?

I would also be up for KH slack.

Dark green arcterix jacket. Red helmet. Painted black skis with "FKNA" sticker.
Will try and be there for 9 at the gondola. Ask for change and we can go for a walk.

Hey robnow, is it possible I met you at the opening of RMR? I think you had DPS 138s?

Be there at 9, and yes great grand opening at RMR, and yes to AS.

[angrysasquatch]

9 it is, see you guys there

[the_teo]

Saw someone with On3p today in stairway line.

I have yellow jacket and super flat skis.

Hey thanks robnow and angrysasquatch for the day today. You made what could have been a miserable day into a great one! Hope your second lap was as good or better then the first!

[Lamothe]

any one in the area do quiver killers?

Second lap just about killed me on the up... skied better than I had all day though. Weird.

Lemme know if you want to do more slack later, it was a blast

I think the guys at the Tune Shop in Banff are familiar with them.

There isn't usually a skin track there, but always a bootpack. I boot it even if I have my touring gear, just as fast, if not quicker....

Hey Banff mags...
Did the local hills get any sun effect? I have to be in Calgary and planning to ski somewhere on wed. Marmot got some melt freeze but not too much. I'm buying a pass and the sun is going to shine... I haven't skied LL since last year so if the sun didn't hammer up top then I'm going to shred the piss out of the skied out hard pack. Anyone wanna shred? Tolocoman?

Yep, we're in for Wednesday. Was just going to pm you and see if you were skiing. No melt freeze, but it is well worked by skier volume since we haven't had much snow since last Wednesday. I'm sure we can find some decent turns though. Supposed to be sunny and low winds (who knew that existed this winter?) Slack country should be good if you have any gear with you. Is weibo with you too?

Divide/Angel and Goats eye were pretty crispy yesterday, but softened up nice in the afternoon. Still some decent turns left on Hayes as well, the Dive is getting a bit scraped though.

I'm skiing the Lake on Wednesday all day. Look for me, white lid, red pants, blue jacket and I will be absolutely ripping the shit of the hardpack gnar. Ask for change and then try to keep up
