Seems like skiing CB is one of those feast or famine places, when its good it's really good, and when its bad its really bad. Glad to see you guys are having a great year, looking forward to a huge OBJ experience this spring

Milo -
Does "wall to wall" include Big Hourglass & such or is that going to stay closed. I got in there last year and I'm still having wet dreams over it. And Teo? Hell yeah!

You can get up to and past the campground with a snowmachine. I have never done this but we talk about how it could be fun to get in there April/early May and do a very early season run using the snowmachines for shuttle (we also joke of a pre-melt crystal gorge trip in the same way). If we get an early season melt like the one last march it could be on. It would be a process/adventure due to the creek(s) melting out and crossing them with sleds (keep it pinned or get wet). We would have to get the water/weather combo right for enough water. It could be fun – pictures/video of OB with 5+ feet of snow on the ground would be sweet. We would probably have to get a daylight start to get in there while the snow is frozen so the machines travel better. Maybe stay over at the Taylor Park Post cabins the night before. - Anyone game for a snowmachine assisted run?

You have wet dreams over upper ruby chief. You are the mogul king!!!

and I don't know but I highly doubt that third bowl hourglass will ever open to the public as long as H-Bomb is around. I heard that he has had some bad experiences in there. Oh and that collage you made was gay.


later

Aaron - we all miss you too. How is Orange County & the 405?

Waist deep on Berthoud yesterday. Wish you were here...well not really, I hate picking up your gear when you wreck.

Anyhow, the wedge christie thing is really working out for me. I've definitely mastered it on Houston, but Upper Ruby Chief? Whoa there buddy. Maybe on my snow-blades, but definitely not the skis.
