Colorado Backcountry: 12.26.06 - WY and CO Attack!

Wednesday, December 27th, 2006

Took some new bros out yesterday for some sled access. Wysplit_ride and his cousin Tim were down in town from the Tetons for the holiday. We decided to head out to one of the normal spots and get some work done. After spending almost 5 hours putting the sled road in after the blizzard on Friday, the work paid off. A little windy, it was a mostly bluebird day with lots of fresh turns. Here are a couple shots from yesterday, I’ll post up Jermey’s shots when I get them.

Colorado Backcountry: The Holiday Blizzard - 12.20.2006

Thursday, December 21st, 2006

Well the snow is back in a big way. Mark and I hammered our way up I70 yesterday to one of the local sidecountry spots and got a bunch of pow runs in. The storm was just gearing up and snowing really hard, after each lap our tracks were completely filled in. It was great to see all of the normal crew out on the pass and meet some new faces as well. Gotta say whats up to my boy Doug (aka lips, aka cpt pow!) and his crew, great seeing you guys and taking a few laps. Met some new guys when Mark and I took a break in the shack, Tommy and Mike. We ended up shuttling the rest of the day with those guys and it doesn’t really get much better. Mark and I decided to roll out about 2:00pm and try and make it back to town, the roads are crazy. I70 is shutdown, everything is closed. I’m going to ride my sled around Boulder!

A couple of pics from yesterday, as you can see I don’t have my D40 skills dialed yet. Missed a couple of money shots of Mike and Mark, some are out of focus, you get the idea. Enjoy

Colorado Backcountry: Recon Day - 12.15.2006

Friday, December 15th, 2006

Went up to the local spot to do some recon and some more snowmoshreddin. No new snow we got some goods in the north facing trees and spent most of the day breaking trail and checking out different side roads. It was mellow pace and it gave me a chance to test out the new Nikon D40. I’m a complete DSLR jong so these pictures aren’t the greatest.
