Texted Seth. Sounded like he's in?

texted Q...?

Dukie might come ride a day or 2.

I'd figure on more vs less Ray.? I'll cook up 10 pounds of meat with BBQ sauce, bread, beans, homefries, etc.


Menu.... I'm sure whatever your cooking up will get ete.

Getting psyched! Sun hasn't shown for 2 weeks up north. Snotels keep tickin up to the tune of 2-3' feet over the last week. Hahns peak should get another foot today!

Tempted to hit Buff out of dry lake lot on Thursday, it's gotta be sick.

Sounded like Seth-ro was 80% sure. Somebody's gotta lift sleds out of holes and he's just the freakishly strong guy to do it!

Your fav GJ neighbor called me last nite wondering what I was doing....SO, he'll probably show up Friday morning.

Bring a good steak! I flew a couple of prime grade big island ribeyes back. 21 bucks a pound and worth every penny. Only one left though.


Figure I'll roll in around 2 PM. I'll be ready to ride Friday morning right after breakfast :face-icon-small-coo

About 2000' of mountain above the clouds there.

Another foot since then....What's that then, 4' on the week :D Who could have known it'd work out like this? Looks like we gets a good pow shot after all!

Gone again 5 minutes later. Could be Epic.

Been to the treeline then it went whitout and didn't go further. Insane boondocking when conditions are right. Oh yeah, we'll tear that Volcano a new one. Won't be any tracks left on that whole face.

We got a lot of first tracks in but it was pretty pounded by yesterday. Snowed another foot last night.

Here in the MC lot doing email before cob. Not net at the MR. Contemplating riding tomorrow up to buff. Moqui said it was pretty torn up around RE, but lots of fresh. Should be good up north after the wind fills some trenches.

Got a few pics, but mostly video. Now I need to get the $90 upgrade for Studio so I can process the video. Everything came together to make for a great trip...especially the snow. Up above 9500' the base was good with 3 feet of pow all over. After recoupoing my $85 bucks and giving Ray 40, we ended up $40.00 in the black. Step up for your refunds!
