sun+pow = good times

more gorb-pro action

Day 1... a 5 am start, greeted Daryl and I with milkbird skies.  We waited it out, and luckily it burned off around 9 am.  We tested the waters, and found the snow to be deep and stable.  It felt weird to shred in the sun .      Daryl Treadway photo.

not a bad warm up run.

some views        Daryl Treadway photo.

Sunrise is a good time to be in the mountains. 

I got my gorb-pro on, I got a stick of juicy fruit.   Daryl Treadway photo.

I think about this line alot... the rollover is one of the gnarliest around.

See what I mean by gnarly rollover

Keeping with the theme of gnarly convex rollovers... Dave Basterrechea shreds the big dick.

It was a bit of a pepper dance, but DB slayed it.

Captain D. Ballsac gets in on the action.  Pretty nice birthday line!

Cornices have built up, but there are still some sneaky ways in. We sawed one off in the foreground , and did a mini rappel in.    Daryl Treadway photo.

Mt Alder-Fack

The recent lack of new snow has inspired some exploration.  We decided to head to Mt. Alder-Fuck.  My face still hurts.

I wonder why they call it "Mt Alder-fuck"?

Oh thats, why.                  

But beyond the alder, was some views   

Blue over here, grey as fuck up there.  That's right, as fuck.

"We should plant some alder up here"

Felt like being in the rockies... this area needs some snow.

I enjoy powder type turns in the half ass sun.  Daryl Treadway photo.

Daryl Treadway, first day on his new machine.  He Loves the power to weight ratio, and handwarmer modulation, and all around non-arcticatness of his new ride.

Brief moments of sun, we were surprised how good the snow was at treeline.  The salmon arm rednecks would likely concur.
