arg sorry. I meant POSTS. Looking at old ice posts and all the attchs aren't working?
-
That would be way better on a monoski or maybe a pogostick.
-
The whole thing is nobel worthy, but attachments in old emails seem to be lost in the internutwebspace or just aren't synching?

You don't need a sled for Sumallo, just some skis. Come on its not that far! You WOULD want one for the Tusk though. Though I don't know why you would want to go after it in the winter

Hey look that shitpile on the edge of town is in!!!

Lemme break this down for your ass. You take the lift up and then ski back where there is a noticeable absence of punters and a noticeable abundance of Grade A Extra Large 60cm ski pen freshiez In summary: you Rudi's Merry Monks Big Mountain Freshiez Team

Amazing new development of the CHAIRLIFT Hope's not gonna be in and you're gonna do the same report you did last year. here, to save you time, you can just copy this: Chilliwack to Hope - running water with a bit of verglas higher up near Hope. Medusa looks about 1" thick Sumallo Bluffs - mostly snow and hanging icicles. Buszowski/Kippan MIGHT be leadable by this weekend as it had continuous albeit quite thin looking ice. Nepopekum - snowing too hard to see it but based on nearby creeks its probably still got open water Go with the Flow - could be in, -10C at night, -6 c in the daytime. Manning Mixed - buried under 6' new freshiez.

Which makes me reflect on winter soft shell pants. Powershield is such an excellent fabric, but it seems to be going out of vogue for some reason MEC seems to be the only company making Powershield bibs, though the Cosmo bibs lack both pockets and zip sides. My MEC Pamir bibs, now two seasons gone, are the gold standard. Going on 4 heavy seasons, both ski and ice, on my current pair. The fit was potato sack-like, but the features were perfect. BRING EM BACK MEC

Those Cloudveil pants are quite nice, excellent fit as on all Cv items. The Dead Bird pants take the cake hands down, though. That Tweave fabric is the best I have seen. I know lots of people who live by Schoeller incarnations, but under hard use they don't last near as long as the bird. If you were paying attention, the factory sale the other week had Gamma pants at $90
