Today was deep, one of the deep ones for sure! Good crew and lots of powder tools, we made it half way up to the zone. Dave Bourassa, Jonn Miller and I hit it mid-storm and spent the day cutting dead fall, getting stuck, getting mad, getting wet, whiterooming, breaking trail, getting stuck and a bunch more. After five hours we had enough and hit the road for home and drier land.
The 2nd annual beacon day went off today along with the Sled Betties premiere at Beau Jo's in Idaho Springs! Super good time and lots good good people! Figured out my old school BCA tracker picks up a signal half as well as a newer tracker. Time for an upgrade.. Anyone who we met today and didn't get info from hit me up! jp[AT]weknowsnow.com.. Peter, bomb chili!!
Half the crew.. lots of sleds. Good turn out and lots of beacon searching and avy practice.
New dedicated server for weknowsnow.com this season! Also we are updating some of our old camera gear and just received a couple of GoPRO HD Motosports Edition cameras! Huge step up from the Vio Sport POV.1's that we've been running. We've got one of those on sale at ebay right now for super cheap! Go bid on it!
