Sweet! Could you shoot me a text so we can be in touch by phone? My number is in my original post. Thanks!

Hello, I'm coming back to Western Washington next week and I'm planning to ski and climb until fall, with no pesky work commitments to use up the good weather windows! I need more partners for weekday adventures. I've been climbing for 8 years and backcountry skiing for 4 (I am coming back to WA after a half-season in Alta). I have taken the AIARE 1 and companion rescue courses and completed my WFR at the beginning of May. I'm happy to tell you more about my mountain experience (and hear about yours). Here are some example objectives I have on my list for the next few months: Fuhrer Finger on Rainier, Whitehorse, White Salmon Glacier on Shuksan, N Ridge of Baker, Watson Traverse, Logan, Daniel, Chimney Rock, Overcoat, Dome, Fernow, Snowfield, Cathedral.....I'm also hoping to spend a few weeks in Squamish later in the summer. I think I am in the middle on the risk-taking spectrum and it's important to me that our fitness levels and senses of humor work together. Let me know if you want to talk more/meet up to see if we can climb/ski together! Alisse 36O-224-778three

Thanks for posting this!

Thanks for the reply. I went to the backcountry.com store and was able to confirm that the medium volume Pro Tongues in the same size as my shells do fit -- did have to adjust the buckle ladder thing, though. Interesting point about the warmth. I will definitely be molding these with my thinnest socks, and I will probably still use the old stock liners for easy descents.

Hey! I need to replace my TLT 7 boot liners, and I want something stiffer than what came in the boots originally. A trusted person recommended Intuition Pro Tongue liners...but they've only used them in TLT 6s. Anyone out there have experience with this liner + boot combo? Or just the liners, and have some thoughts/review? Thanks!! Alisse

You first, @ggres335!

Didn't get any action shots, but the powder was fun yesterday near Steven's! Beautiful day, fresh snow, thick trees, views of Daniel and Hinman, fun people... Life is good!!

That sounds amazing, too. Enjoy! There'll be a good base when you get back (hopefully).

Nice shot!

Looks like a fantastic trip!

@JasonG Stoked for snow yet?

The number of exclamation marks should have tipped you off to the sarcasm. Or at least it was meant to.

Hey, does anyone know where I can find a Cebe Trilogy helmet to purchase within the US? And ideally, not $300.... This is a helmet that is CE EN certified for skiing, climbing, and cycling:

I can't believe he did that, either. @JasonG untag it!!

I just noticed the sideways bus/van.... where is this?

This is an amazing spin on a classic! Assaulted and murdered by a band of northern pigmies ERU bless. EDIT: my coworker, who I shared this with, just informed me that it's a complete LOTR thing. That went completely over my head, but that doesn't surprise me...

I can't tell -- is this marked best of CC?

Just got some powder skis, now they have bindings, but...skins, I need skins. 116 mm underfoot, 176 cm. I know someone out there has some they've kept nice and rolled up and now they are just taking up space.... Let me know!
