Busy day this week, be careful!

And this Travis guy has put up some nice local BC vids this winter after an unusually heavy and low-moisture snow year.

(I've always liked getting up into Gulf of Slides more than Tucks, the years I've been motivated to get over there to ski. Not forcast, study the topography, wx archives, and project from the MW advisory; go with care. Never even got my skis out this year. Sigh.)

...later this month?

Ouch!...that hurts me here in California! But just so's I can suffer a little more.. What are the conditions like at Tuckerman Ravine in spring?

Bump.

I'll be heading up there the weekend of the 25/26, staying at Hermit if possible.

Let's go skiing!

Edit; Semperveins, lots of snow, full on spring corn conditions. Tucs is the real deal for northeast skiing!

Yo Dale, that video was shot right in my backyard!

It's no GNAR schralping, but skiing trees on pow days is about as religious as it gets. I'm posting it here so others can enjoy.

I'm sure others want to go, bump.

Even if you're not someone who rips steep chutes for breakfast, Tucs has something fun for you.

C'mon, let's get together and have a great time! PM me if you are in doubt of your readiness for fun.

That huck with the tomahawk looked like the huckster had studied the flight dynamics practiced by the ever-hard-charging Pat Munn of the Adk. Ski-to-Die in the late-1970s. Exploring the wild blue yonder with no flight plan or confirmed landing zone was his MO. We could only watch with amazement...

eKat nails it.

Unless, of course, you're from SquallyWood.

Next our North Woods Brandon will be rapping on kicking the Heave, crushing the Kwood Chair 4 or jump starting Rose after blowing out the Squaw!

Okay Brandon - we be waiting for the Tuckerman GoPro viddie - 60 mph on glare ice - that really is an achievement all kidding aside.

But if really want to go big - tell me you body surfed Tower Three Chute at Jackson and only hip checked the choke cliff once!

We be bad.
