Looked like it had a pretty good pack from all the sleds this weekend. Hate to even think about that thing sliding, hope like hell it happens at night when everyone if sleeping if it does.

Great riding with your group on Saturday drypowder!!!

[drypowder]

Is it possible for the Forest Dept to force a slide with some military size shells like I've seen on tv.

Has it slide yet this year? I was out there in the begining of jan and it looked like it was going to let go then. The top was real wind loaded. If not I hope to God no one is anywhere around that thing when it lets go.

Got to looking at this and realized the really good looking guy on the right is ME! The sled on the hill is a TM8 that lost the oil in the turbo at that spot

I was out there in the end of Jan begining of Feb cannot remember the exact dates, they had just got a couple feet of fresh snow, I was the first one to go up in the AM around 10:00 or so.. Rode up about 3 times and left, came back in the afternoon and it had let loose pretty big I might add..... Gave me chills up my spine to see that,, truth is you never know when they will slide tracked up or not doesn't matter...... I have never actually been caught in avy and do not want to either but I have caused at least 4 in my last 4 years of riding out west...

This was the guy I guided that weekend, him and his buddy from Illinois, never ridin mountains before, so after we pounded powder all day and played in the trees I had to show them the Widow Maker. The guy taking the pic was Dan. And the guy in the pic was Matt.

Rats Joe, with all the garb on it's hard to tell who's who up there.

For sure, just look for my red and white marbelized 07' rev with the 10high logo's on the side. Soon to be on an 09' xp .

 

[firecatguy]

got that pic off johndee.com they said that it was a blast riding with you Joe

 

[snowcross338]

Yeah, we showed those guys a pretty good time they said. I saw those pics on Dans myspace , and on Johndees site, and figured that's where they came from. They were definately impressed with the size of our "hills".
