Taldor, The Restless Ape, Pyrofloptic and I hit the Fire Plug yesterday. AWESOME snow on the north side, shitacular snow on the south.

Pyrofloptic set off a wet slide on the south face of the Fire Plug that ran all the way to the bottom. It moved slowly and took the snow down to the layer before the Friday night storm. It was sketch. Big enough to bury a person or a small black dog who likes to chase snow balls. Pyro was able to call Juni off. She was chasing the damn thing down the hill!

Watch your top-knot out there.

Went up with my dad, sisters and SteadyB. Found Pow and lots of it. It was sort of surreal in the cloud, but an awesome morning.

You can always find freshie that keeps you off the rocks if you know where to look. Here’s a little something i threw together from a trip with my sisters and SteadyB on Saturday.

While we were starving for snow on Saturday and hiking through minefields to get to the hidden gems. The anti has been upped. Watch your top-not.

And the lord said, “let there be sick,” and there was sick and behold it was very sick…

Captain Redbeard and I dropped Credit Card Bowl at about oh-dark-thirty this morning. Wind was howling on the road, but disappeared altogether about 20 meters down. Pow was sick, sunrise was sick and for the most part the good Captain and I were quite well. Yes, quite well indeed…

The Cap’n demponstrated the dangers of falling in a tree well. Fortunately I was there to ease the sting by laughing at him. We agreed on a new saying: he who laughs last, bails early. Funny how that worked out…

Don’t worry. I bought him a bagel for laughing at him. We’re cool.
