Was up the Renshaw today and what a great day it was. Sunny conditions and lots of snow, super conditions. No propane for the barb. so had to pack that down this afternoon and will be back up with full one tomorrow I hope. The cornices are building bigger everyday on most faces, BE VERY CAREFUL AND AWARE OF THESE DEATH TRAPS, when they let go they will be running for a long ways.:rant::rant::nono::nono: Play safe and see you up there.:D

Yes, we just got back from the fly out. It was a backhaul for the heli so might be a bit cheaper. Around the cabin tracked out good but yesterday and today lots of great riding where I was. I lot of untouched bowels and valleys. More than I could deal with in two days and I didn't even get past the bowel in back of the saddle.;);):D:D

hey New24. Pm me as I will be riding on Sat. and you might want to join us. Need to know your riding ability as we are most likely going to drop into some deep holes;). Found some untouched today and left it alone, hard to do.:cool:
