    Schussin' and Seussin'!!! YEAH!!!! DUDE. The signal to noise ratio 'round here has been way fucked up. Thanks for upping the signal times 1,000,000,000,000.


    I think one of the dudes in your pics was my fishing guide once. He couldn't put me on a single fish except for old whitey. Glad he can ski better than he can fish!

    I was starting to think that the kooks have killed this place. Then Aaron drops a bomb like this and my faith is restored in the maggot dream!

    Looks like a great season! Nice work my man.

    Yeah buddy
    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.

    Hah, at ours too! By my old dad in his thick Danish accent, tears rolling down his face.

    Sorry for the threadjack Aaron. You most certainly nailed it with your TR. Well played.

    Thanks for the Revs beta dude! I knew I forget someone in the first post.

    Yeah Alpha is awesome. Everything on that mountain(s?) is big, steep, and perfect (I guess the whole range is). We made an attempt on the lines lookers right and left of Alpha and got shut down by unconsolidated 60+deg snow or ice and poor/incorrect rack choices. Its a toss up between Alpha and the FATRS on the West side of the Angel for line of the trip.

    This guy? I cant speak much on his fishing skills since I dont fish much but he sure can ski.

    No worries! As long as folks are enjoying the stoke I couldnt care less where the thread goes.

    Right afterwards. He flew out on the plane we flew in on. He did however give me some beta on the range including sending me the above photo. Great guy and, looking around at the routes in the Revs that he has put up, a badass alpine climber.

    there is a local jackson area guy that has definitely done the routes in there also. Tom Walter was a friend and ski partner. the photos brought back memories of hanging out talking climbing with him. long expensive flight glad you found some good conditions.
