Looks like a slippery rappel, but hey who can deny a free shower.

I bought some for stuff like this. Then I stand at the car and debate on bringing them. Then, when on an exposed ridge, I bitch about them being in the car

Nice TR guys, hope the weather holds for thursday/friday.

My contributions:

Yesterday morning, Capitol Reef for wine and chocolate in beautiful, exposed places:

This morning, Tanner's Gulch for water and chocolate in beautiful, exposed places:

A homosexual hippy treehugger scenic Vermont is for Lovers shot:

Crackhead. Climbs twice as fast as everyone else, and then has to fucking keep doing something while waiting on the ridge. Crampons and a handcrack? Sit down, my man:

Mt. Nebo far away, framed between Chipman and Lightning Ridge:

TH traversing above the line to be skied. We actually were already at the entrance, but he ran back and forth seven times before taking the skis off his back. I just sat and stared in awe:

(Insert rad action shots.)

At the bottom, 50m from the road. A group of three moose have been living at Lisa Falls for at least a month now. Keep your eye out for them when you drive up LCC. Saw one of them take off just as we approached, and skied through their very fresh bed/toilet:

Peakbagadventureski complete.

TR, however, incomplete. Post more pics TH! I can't believe you didn't put up the sequence of me falling down the other waterfall, or the goat or the moose.

Then again it seems that posting two, even three TRs for just a single outing is the way to really step this internet abuse thing to a higher level.

Great stuff gents, thx for sharing.

Slugging 4500 vertical with those heavy Praxis bastards on the feet would wear me out.

**JTrue** · 02-20-2008, 03:38 PM

Too bad we didn't get any shots of the psycho that picked up Alto and I when we hitched for a ride. Passing people and going about 80 mph in LCC, only to pull over 2 minutes later to drop us off at our cars near Tanners. I think TH got a little nervous when he recieved the text from Alto saying, "he is trying to kill us."

**JTrue** · 09-13-2008, 10:42 PM

Bump for another year of bagging peaks. Where you been TH? We need to bag some on the bikes too before the snow falls.

**SonnyBoy** · 09-14-2008, 06:24 AM

Solid stuff!

**bcbob** · 09-22-2008, 07:48 PM

awesome line -great job! skied it probably 15 years ago and have very fond memories - did it by going up tanners and ascending the east ridge of o'sullys, great ridge climb, sooo fun and avoids the creepy broads fork hanging scariness!
sweet....
