I really wanted to get a pair of the threw bibs but they were a little to pricey. I ended up getting a good price on a brand new pair of HH Odin mountain guide bibs. Anyone have any experience with this certain bib? It looks nice and seems to have a decent amount of features.

Does anyone know if any of them were wearing any kind of avalanche snow bag??

I’m open to suggestions.. I just really like the board that they made for this year, however 168w is a little to big and the 162w is a tad bit short. I’ve looked into oz snowboards and there a split or two that are wide enough. Any experience with this company ? Just need something thats at least 26.0 for width because I’m size 13.

I was able to purchase a Colorado ski mountaineering book that has a lot of good usable information. There another book someone mentioned earlier in this thread.That books seemed to be more oriented towards ten mile range area. Any other recommendations would be highly appreciated. Found out that my local store cant get the 162w solution, he…[Read more]

I’ll already signed up for the Ava 1. Just trying to find a course thats more snowboard oriented.

Yea, I would absolutely be down. I bought a ski mountaineering book and been scoping out a bunch of nice lines. I would like to do Quandary Peak soon.. Any one one else have any favorite places for early riding ??

Black label,

Where could i go to find out what runs you are exactly talking about?
Does anyone have any recommendations on books that talk about routes and mountain for skiing/ split boarding ?

I don’t, any other recommend places to try this winter?

has anyone been to eiseman hut in eagle county??

yeaa i’m talking to you

If only they made a 164 in a wide.

Has anyone heard of Oz snowboards from Colorado? They make a split that recently won award at backcountry awards. Love to hear any feedback on the model or company. Looks like a serious contender to the Jones solution.

Thanks for the input everyone. I’m pretty dead set on the jones solution in either 162 or 168, I wish they had made a size in-between them. I’m finishing the rest of my degree online, therefor I don’t have the luxury of knowing my schedule 3 months down the road. It would be great to meet up some people for some turns..

Yea, I figured I would be good enough. It would be nice to meet some folks on the mountain.

For sure. Jones makes a 168w just curious if it’s to big.
