Nicely done ladies and gents! I"m insanely jealous!!

**girlski0912** · 03-12-2006, 11:24 AM

Holy shit...Whistler was a good choice for the summit afterall. Every shot just makes me regret even more not being able to make it up this weekend.

And the Corona Bowl shots sort of make me wanna cry. Nice work you guys!!!!

Sick pics. It seems that Ullr has been kind to the Summit this year.

**Pinner** · 03-12-2006, 01:06 PM

well after landing the drop i was prob going around 50mph and didn't see another 10 foot windcliff until i was already in the air. the landing was really flat and i landed nose heavy. held on for a bit then hit a mogul. apparenlty my skis went about 20 feet in the air and i cartwheeled about 10 times to a dead stop

**ratcliffe81** · 03-12-2006, 03:43 PM

nice line Phil! yeah those wind drifts in that area are trecherous.

that photo is definitely sick, job well done boys.

**Mtn Man** · 03-12-2006, 10:21 PM

Sweet pics so far!!! I'll post a few of mine up tomorrow, just got back in the states.

A big thanks to the local tour guides, LeeLau, Sharon, Pow11, Atrain, postman, and anyone else I left out. It's all a blur to me, so many good lines, so much pow, and a totally stoked group of people. Around the 5-7th days, my legs finally kicked in and I hit the groove, too bad I had to come back to reality today. Apologies again to Lee's knee during a photog session, damn snow snake

What a freakin' week.......

Bump. We need some photos from Sunday!

**bigtrubs** · 03-13-2006, 01:50 PM

Well, since I ran into some other mags at Baker this weekend they can count as summit photos:

Whoa that was a little snarky. It's actually the Summit 2006 photo thread, and as I'm sure you know, it was a PNW Summit, not solely a Whistler summit, thankyouverymuch.

**LeeLau** · 03-13-2006, 05:36 PM

phil and athan - I'll send you some pics from Alligator Rock. I just picked out the best ones because the rest were blurred. PM me your email addresses. They're big pictures; what a splendid cartwheel that was

**Mtn Man** · 03-13-2006, 08:30 PM

Here's a few pics so far:

Lee I will be trading the black jacket in for a more photo slutable colour

Either orange or bright blue.

Hope you recovered from your tour on Sunday, you looked a little burnt.

**MTT** · 03-13-2006, 11:49 PM

LeeLau:

You TR's Pic's and website are (OUTSTANDING)!! THANK YOU!

**MTT** · 03-14-2006, 12:22 AM

I think I must have been on sensory overload when looking through this thread the first time.

Is it just me or is this a really good picture?

**shirk** · 03-14-2006, 12:40 AM

**The AD** · 03-14-2006, 09:53 AM

Nice photos all around! It was good to see some familiar faces and meet a few new maggots in Whistler. I'm really impressed that Pulver correctly identified everyone in that group shot and managed to remember most of our real names, too.

**Atrain505** · 03-14-2006, 02:52 PM

Photos from Whistler first Monday of the summit. International trees.
Photos by Brad Christensen...or B-RAD.
Red base bros in their element.

**Barnballs** · 03-14-2006, 10:48 PM

Whistler flat-out ruled this past weekend. Plenty of snow, bars and fine eats.We must have hit 10 different bars in 4-nights, and all of them in walking distance of our pad-not mammoth by any stretch.

Great to see familiar mags and meet new ones.

Partial clearing on Thursday-looking towards Blackcombs 7th Heaven

Heading back to the Village...only 3000 more vert...

JDabasin in some trees off Peak Chair, no idea the name of the area, but it didn't really matter

Denver Ken sampling some no-name trees..

Ken about to make-out with some pine bark..

JDabasin heading to the Blackcomb Glacier with a breeze in tow

Our playground on Saturday-this area in Blackcomb was the schnitz..

Closer view of the area..

Around 4pm for 3 straight afternoons..

"Did you boys need another shot?"
"Uuhh not really, but O.K."

Apres for three, at the Longhorn....good Lord!

**gincognito** · 03-14-2006, 11:05 PM

1st one in three years that I've missed and, damn, it looked like a good time.
Props to smerham for the bi-caosal summit feast and a big ol' shout-out to dodger for being such a wicked cool maggot in disguise. I still r4ecall the weirf way he ended up ripping it up at the B.c. summit on the sketchiest of circumstances. Then, when he called us up in Alp D'huez last december cause he was in the area with his 14 y3ar old daughter, I knew trhat his trust was highl. Fortunatly, in a moment ofpity, bad_roo politely declined his invitation and saved us all froma potential lawsuit....

Cheers to all.

Sick and ashaemd and happy )and not here at all),
