me, greg and one of his buds are heading into the forbidden zone today:eek: since me and greg are both papa's thought the title was a good fit. got the 40oz bottle of gerital, to help get me through the day, and 2 extra sets of depends, in case things get a little scary:face-icon-small-win thinking about getting some stickers for my sled that say "sponsered by aarp:)" will post some pics from yesterdays ride with indeep and some old folks pics from today:face-icon-small-ton

Ron we hit Medicine Lake today. I hate to say it but it was actually too deep. I had a foot of snow sitting on my hood all day. I'm to sore to type any more. Later
 
the pow is back!!! oh how i have missed the fluffy white. was starting to wonder if i could remember how to ride one ski:) can you see the smile on my face? it just won't go away. awesome riding and even better 2 days of sandman grade riders:eek: i hope you guys don't take that as an insult:face-icon-small-win sat. me and indeep tore up kelsay, boondocked the whole day, found THE shortcut down to birdspoint. will be useable as soon as we can get off trail, no more waiting for 6+ feet, yeah! dan we hit the monster for ya but only dared go 2/3's of the way up too slick and scary! only had one problem heading down kelsay on the way back the road was totally plugged with the loudest rowdiest group up on the mountain, the yukon outbacker gang:) i think they had almost 20 riders, and they sure do know how to have a good time!!!
sun we were on the other side, hit the forbidden zone, had a great time highmarking, sidehilling and boondocking up to the top bowl! then headed up to june lake, did you know your sled will fit between trees that are spaced closer together than your skis are wide? either that or we widened them:) man I LOVE THE TREES just can never get enough, add a foot or 2 of fresh and i'm in heaven. just nothing else like it in the world...
dave h, ok so you've got me wondering, was that you at the top of kelsay? if it was just remembered my snowest name is 89sandman, nice to meet you!
jason, did you see my comment on your profile page? can't give you a bigger compliment. too much snow, you s@ck:face-icon-small-win enough said...
highmark, what can i say you are defiantly my kind of rider!!! always nice to meet another sledder with the same passion and enthusiasium for the sport. we MUST hook up again soon! no place will be safe:eek:
can't wait for next weekend, if the forcast holds true should have even more fresh to lay waste to...
thought i'd throw one in of my 5 month old grandson, future deep powder/boondocking specialist:D

Ron, we ended up at Diamond today but I couldn't find your #. Other than the wind today was awesome. All the fresh was incredible! Too bad you can't ride at all during the week because that's when I usually get to ride! My wife isn't into it really this year for some reason so I have only been out twice on the weekend.

Rowdy? Us? Okay, some of us like to have a great time!! Great meeting you and indeep on the mountain. We do have a tendency to just park in the middle somewhere.........................................:D
 
Hey 89sandman, That was also me sitting between you and Dave H. It looked like you guys would be alot of fun to ride with! If we didn't have the girls I probably would have tagged along with you as far as the Phazer would have made it! What a great day it was too!
 
hey nice meeting you guys, didn't mean to be so shy but had a little forum problem with one of the guys from your side and didn't want to cause any fuss up on the hill! nice to see most of the folks from your side are friendly:) always happy to meet new peeps to ride with, as most of the time i'm begging for riding partners. let me know the next time your group is headed my way and well hook up!!! ron
 
dldiva, was nice meeting up with your group and being able to put faces to your guys names!!! love to see peeps out and having a good time with friends and family, you guys rock:) look forward to running into the moving road block up on the hill again soon!

Hey Ron, it was great riding with you. I can't wait to go "in" and tear up the upper bowl. Where you riding this weekend? I would love to see your side and doo some boondocking thru the timber. Let me know your plans, hh
