Filthy pirate hooker.

 

That drop looks like stupid amounts of fun.

 

Actually looks like windpack...I'm curious, did you "stick" the landing? (not sure what you would call it, my daughter used to be in gymnastics...) or did you do a somersault?

I will admit..i didn't stick it as well as I would have liked...but i didn't somersault either.

I wasn't referring to the departure point, only the landing point. You can have cornices where the landing is fluff because they are on the lee of the ridge.

NO! really? WOW...you learn something new every day! I always wondered why it never snows on west facing aspects above treeline in Colorado!

My comment was directed at toast, not you. I talked about the landing and he was saying it was a windlip (no duh, I knew what the TAKEOFF was), which doesn't translate necessarily into windpack underneath, could be anything.

Snow is currently in transition from a winter to a spring snowpack...which means that big lines will start to come into play soon. Here is a photo of my friend Josh from today in Grizzly Gulch near Loveland Pass.
