Had a good time...got in some pretty intense climbing....long hard pull with the last several feet going near vertical with handle bars in your chest and sending a rooster tail over the edge in to say the least is intense...so is going back down[:D]
got to see where a pretty good sized avalanche happened....big chunks of snow and it messed up some pretty big trees....rode right at the front edge of it, pretty cool to see....just glad nobody got caught in it! not much for pics this trip...need to get a helmet cam i guess.

    Glad you had a good time riding. Getting to see an avalanche would be very enjoyable, as long as it wasn't chasing you down a mountian side.

    wpage...i have a snowpulse 30liter avy backpack, has compressed air tank in it that inflates airbag when you pull rip cord in caught in avy which keeps you on top like a life jacket does for you in water....have never had to pull it and hope never have to but better to have and never need it!

    good friend stuck about 15-20ft above a creek....took a little while to get it out without loosing it in the creek.
