Most are pictures on my brother - killerk on his white M1000, one or two of me. The snow has a great base and about 6 to 8 inches of powder on top. Awesome Day!![/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH][/ATTACH]

Wow, those are great pics. :camera:
Can't believe how thickly coated the tree's are already.
Was the landing OK. Looks like he may have needed one tap on the brake.
Thanks for sharing.:face-icon-small-hap
 
nice pics Jared. Mike can sure make a machine fly! That's a killerk flight!!
 
nice pics, hope landing turned out ok:eek:

UpperHuffman crew - we need to start ridin franklin basin or near the bear lake lodge.....the trees are more thin here:rolleyes: a tree riding makes me happy:face-icon-small-hap

Yeah that one of me, I definitely should have tapped the brakes. Landed pretty hard. Killerk's still the man though.

Mjunkie was not feeling it at this time(black sled)... I was wondering why my stock M1000 was almost climbing with his cutler1000... Turns out he had a powervalve cable that had come off... Second half of the day was more the norm... He was ripping around and schooling us in climbs! (Don't worry, we were careful and stayed off a few hills that sure where tempting)
If we can practice self control in these conditions anyone can!
Landing turned out OK for me... 1st one not bad, second and third even though I tried a different angle I landed in the same hole so I didn't go for a 4th.
You Utah guys (and others) are welcome to come ride with us anytime... I love the boondocking up there... The trees are spaced just right.
My brother texted me last night and said that the weekend of the 30th we are going up to stay.
Most likely we will leave friday mid day and stay through sunday.
I will make a post or let you guys know... We have plenty of room at the cabin and could always use some good friends from the 4m to ride with.
4 miles up the road to the cabin, so you have to pack your stuff in.

These point and shoot cameras are a pain... Its obvious we need better equiptment or more practice... Most of my shots I missed due to the delay.

Killer- just an FYI- we will have a crew up there that weekend and plenty of good riding. You should hook up with us. More info here.......http://www.dootalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=249329
Any brands and riders are welcome......we will be hitting the franklin basin/egan basin areas on Saturday. We are going up Wed. night and riding Thurs. Fri. Sat. There will be plenty of Snowester 4m brothers there as well.
 
I actually had about twice as many on my camera from saturday, but none of those turned out good. My camera takes good pictures, but it's hard because you push the button and there is about a second or so delay before it actually takes the picture, so you have to time it just right. Mike, we've got to get the helmet cams going.
 
what area was the last picture?? for some reason it doesn't look familiar...

The pictures of the jump we were hitting is up at the boy scout camp. We found that jump only a couple years ago. When the snow's right, it is an awesome jump, the approach isn't perfect, but probably best of all, I've never seen any tracks off it other than ours.

Hey thanks for the info and offer!:beer;
We will be staying at our cabin in franklin, so we probably won't be up for loading up and trailering the sleds.
However, we could possibly meet up if you guys ride tonys, franklin, or egan basin.
All of which are easily accesible to us.
When you know which areas and which days, let us know.

we will hook up sometime this season...i really want to ride franklin a few times

I have had a D50 SLR for a few years and worked for Eastman Kodak for 3 years...find a setting on your point and shot that will turn the auto-focus option off, then push the "take a picute button" half way, pushing it half way should focus the shot, then you can give it a full push and is should snap a pic quick, most newer point n shoot cameras have a multi pic option that will keep snapin pics while you have the button held down....or thats the way most cameras are working these days, good luck:beer;
