    Glad you are ok. Summit chute is my favorite line on Fissile, although the NW face and standard are super fun, too. The rollover on the summit chute is so intimidating but fun. Looks really different right now compared to what I remember.

    no, you would have already done that on the descent

    when your already set up to shoot your buddy skiing, its pretty easy to catch his fall. at that point theres nothing else you can do.

    Damn! Good to hear you guys are ok! I'm kinda pissed I got stuck at work and couldn't head out with you guys but from the sound of it, maybe it was for the best? Anyways, enjoy Hawaii and hopefully we can rip it up next year...

    when the snow finally melts off that cliff, your ski is going to end up in the bowl below. late august would be the prime time to head in there. Id be up for a recon mission, maybe sleep over at the lake.

    Wow Phil, glad to hear that your OK.

    That looks like a crazy fun line ... I can guarantee that by next winter you'll want to go back up there and bag that line again. Only this time you will own it.
