    That's pretty much how I would envision a heli trip
    I can't believe you are a rando racer because I look so much better in Lycra than you.

    People who don't think the Earth is flat haven't skied Vail.

    One thing I perhaps neglected in the TR was to give adequate credit to our triple-D cup of Guides:

    -Don Sheraf
    -Dylan Freed
    -Doug Workman

    An entire week of continuously cat herding a bunch such as ourselves on the kind of terrain we were acccessing, assessing snow quality and stabilty from the top, then taking the sharp end would have left me a nervous wreck.

    Thanks again guys!

    It's a war of the mind and we're armed to the teeth.

    In spite of what I said at the beginning of the TR, I've actually had pretty good luck with pick-up crews up there. It is pretty rare any more that people going on an AK heli-trip don't have any idea what they might be getting into. The whole "training for Alaska" thing may be something of a joke anymore, but it really does help make sure that one doesn't end up with a really weak link.

    That was an awesome awesome TR! It was nice to meet, drink and BS with you at The Tsaina, thanks for the beta. Hope to see you all "on the boat" November 2013! if not sooner.
