Nice kicker!! I need to try that one out!

 

[wy-doo]

All the snow melted in starvalley!

Finally some POW!!!

That is a good kicker when the snows right. Friend of mine here in the valley when 200 feet on that same kicker last spring. You can see the footage of it in 10 Highs latest vid. Wipped it to hard and blew his knee out on the tranny and had to be life flighted out.

 

[mntrider20]

need some honest opinions. Is there 3-4 feet of powder out there. I mean alot of it. Some say yes some say the snowies is the place to go. I we come to alpine it will be a 13 hr. drive is it worth it.

 

[IdahoPowderHound]

The snow is great up in the greys. i hate saying that cause ive seen so many fricken people up in places that i never do see them like up by stuart mnt (the bowls). not sure if its worth the 13 hr drive for ya when the snowies offer tons of awesome ridding and the snow pack up there is alot better than this side of the state. check out snotel site and check the snowfall the past week in both areas. it will show who has picted up the most pow the past week. Your best bet will most likely be the snowies.

 

[Tree Boss]

Watch This!! any updates on the area? hows the snow been the past week up there?

Riding is SICK right now. Very dangerous but super sick if you use your route finding skills!

Be very carfull on top as we have had almost a foot of fresh in the valley and im sure twice that on top. Rode Saturday up in the bowls above N. Murphy and watched a kid get burried in the biggest slide ive seen all vear probably 200 yards wide and about an 8foot shelf. It was in the second bowl on top on the windward side of the hill. saw three people hit the hill at once and it was only 5 seconds before it slid and burried one ridder. We got him out and he was ok but damn lucky!!!

Should punch the sh!t out of all three people. STUPID DUMB AS$ES!!! I was in the next bowl over. Those guys have no business in the backcountry!!

yeah me and my friend were on the assault and IQR. We had just got up into that bowl not even five min. and it happend right infront of us. couldnt believe my eyes as i looked up at the top of the bowl to see three ****ing people riddding that windward slope all at once. That has to be probably the worst place in that whole area that you could have done that in i see that same hill slide every year. Burried the kid all the way up to his forehead and it took us probably 10 min just to get him out and about an hour to get his sled out. I gave them a good lecture on ridding in wyoming so hopefully they'll think next time......
