Long time no post. Looks like everyone is getting after it. I was have way up bonkers when you guys rode Stair. Looked fun! Everytime I go up there plan on breaking my stairs cherry as my exit run but have always chickened out/get lured back to bonkers. Good work.
Glad you like the fish scales Doug. I have them on my Revelator and I love having…[Read more]

Im on my 5th or 6th Gerber Compact Sport. I lose one every few years but like it so much i keep buying replacements. small enough to carry in a pocket if needed, big enough to be useful. It satisfies all of my riding, backpacking, and fishing needs.

Im still out riding, having more fun than ever. ButI kinda just stopped taking pictures lately. Im becoming burnt out on all the social media nonsense. Too much self promotion and not enough focusing on why we go into the mountains in the first place. The only time ill really pull out my camera(phone) is if I happen to put down a particularly…[Read more]

Like Powderjunkie, I thought I would also try to kick some life into the forum by posting some photos from last spring.
First some shots from the Hanks. The weekend before a friend sent me some recon pics that showed a decent snowpack remaining.

I wrote mountain accord to let them know my opinion but I don’t trust them They are pro development. I get the feeling that Ski Utah and friends is funding them. Either way, our comments are cant hurt so if you haven’t already done so, chime in.

Ima be in Arizona for work during the first week of may. Flagstaff area. Does anyone out there want to spill the bean on their top secret late season touring spots. Looks like Mt. Humpreys is my best option and snotel there is still some snow left. Does anyone have any current info on the snow situation?

It was a fun few days while it lasted. I don’t know if it was the wind or lack of crowds but I don’t think I crossed a track in 3 three days of riding. I counted 3 people including me in Cardiff fork on a Saturday at 1100 in bottomless conditions…

Really cool. How long of a walk is to both of those hills? Every spring when I see you guys post your TR’s I vow to make it to California the next year. Maybe next year….
