    That's sweet Rawj, I like how you quoted what someone said and then inserted your own cunted BS that doesn't have anything to do with the original quoted statement, just so you could be the narcissistic cunt that you are.

    Thou shalt not cunt regional threads that thou pussy cunt doesn't reside.

    Were you able to identify on what layer this failure was occurring?

    Can't say for sure. But it was old November snow. One of the pockets even had some characteristics of the hard variety...

There were two dual courses. One for telemark and one for parallel. The top 16 racers on time from each dual course then battled it out in a dual elimination format with a pro bump added. The pro bump had a flat landing with a gate immediately on landing. There were no time penalties for judged missed telemarks. This was alpine racing on skinny telemark skis and homemade frankenboots. Racers came from the Summit Series in Colorado and Montana and the rest of the West. Every year Victor Roy was the man to beat. He was an elite alpine racer who would put on the tele gear one day a year and win. Groundhog Day at Alta was an incredible drug and alcohol fueled Ullrfest. I don't know if it is still held.

    Was across the street in the land of willows and bears watchen you pivot skid sfb. You really need to lock your ankles together bro, do more damn turns.

    My obs from the upper BCC 9800 down to 8200 S to SW facing. No formal pit dug but multiple hand pits and pole probes. Surface hoars down low on top of 10 inches of the good stuff. Up near the ridge more hollow feeling with some mild damage from the SSW winds Thur morning. Lots of collapsing up on the PC ridge and some impressive wind loading on the N faces. No activity seen though. We were gonna stomp some cornices so we had an avalanche to report but then I remember some sage advise from a wise ski bum and left the slide path alone. It looked ready to go and I didn't wanna piss it off. Kept it low angle and the the turns were super duper fantabulous. Even the exit was fun for as little snow was down there. Teams of people were shredding pow lots of folks out and about with smiling faces fat skis will be the end of us all. Roj would be sad at this crowded corner of the wasnatch, maybe he won't come back (to this thread hopefully)?

    Now for some stoke...

    Skied from Figure 8 back down to Alta today. Saw a nice little slide right behind Chad's gap. There was a couple there who were "making sure no one was under there" but didn't have any beacons.

    Just saw the report come up on UAC. Interesting..

    The geese fly high this Solstice morn,
    The woods are bare, the snow is deep.
    We wait for Herne to sound His horn
    To wake His children up from sleep
    To celebrate this happy night,
    When Winter may be put to flight.

    Merry Solstice to all and to all a good night. LET IT SNOW!!!

    with my partner heading out of town for the holidays, figured two quick laps in mill d before work would suffice. saw trace to maybe 2" max on skintrack. temps in upper 30s early. wind gusting only up higher. a delightful meadow skipper through the trees before exiting through the east face of reynolds. way fun. enjoy the holidays.

    if your lurkin take that skin track constructive criticism of the org you work for for what it's worth
    i personally judge by the product not what others may or may not do with said product
    like biff said
    considerable chance that making bad decisions can lead to adverse consequences anywhere in life
    oh and if you walk into the bar and the shit gets ugly
    the galliono bottles not a bad thing to be holdin and the more bar brawls you experienced the probability of a better outcome of the asswhopin may occur
    but what do i know i gave that shit up to skibums
    have a safe season thanks for what cha all do.
    you missed one n facin pio along the d lake subridge exit
