Amazing!

Epic! Respect to Billy, for an amazing cabin in an amazing environment. It is hard to beat skiing those lines then drinking beers in that sauna

change your screen corners options in “dashboard and expose”. when you move your pointer to one corner, it will let you see all open windows and choose one to work in. you can take the option away that pops all windows up

everything about AK is intense.

who was craig kelly’s instructor and was it a guy named john aka “buff”?

Spring is the only time to ski in the rockies, in my opinion. Nice work sliding down those lines, the 3/4 is a great line. Did you have to hike up the road or was the gate up?

you can ski any month of the year. there is corn in june – the only trouble being that you have to get to it.

what in particular are you looking for.

nice one karkis! these reports of your’s make me pissed im not out there this year.

isnt it nice looking at the bugs from catamount

Fairy Meadows is amazing. The terrain, the hut, the snow, the sauna. The Selkirks are one of the best mountain ranges is the world, and will impress anyone.

The flick is great.

the snow science world works on the metric system
cm’s m’s – temp gradient is degrees C per 10 cm

nice viddy.
enjoyed the paddling clips aswell 😀

looks like some nice turns. gotta love the kootz.
the beer isnt the only thing that is ‘forte’ if you know what i mean 😉

i have been patiently waiting for this one – fuck yeah karkis.

on the theme of firsts, when you heading to bryce?

Not sure how technical your ascents typically are, but I would only use a 10 point crampon for low angle snowfields, and would take a 12 point crampon for any glacier travel or more technical objectives.

a 10 point crampon will walk far better than a 12 point. the two extra points are called secondary points are are designed to give another…[Read more]

i use the bd contact strap 10 point crampon.

they work really well with my soft boots, hard boots, and mountaineering boots. great for walking and steep ascents, but dont climb vertcial ice very well (10 point afterall).
