Re: 2014 Mountain Biking - Snowshed Hub?

And remember when going down the 7 marker your not going to see a sign that directs you into the lower trails. So your going to have to duck ropes that put you in areas that say no mountain biking beyond this point. You'll probably need to do the same down lower or you will wind up peddling up hill ...

Re: Juggernaut

The obvious thing would be to make juggernaut a winter mountain bike trail. Would be one of the best experience a person could have at k. But that opens the door to changing k's brand to an adventure area. What next a ice climbing wall? Yeah right, k management still harbors dreams of a real estate ...

Re: How many days in a skiers Lifetime?

To some degree your not alone. Even Andreas Fransson contemplates the same type of things. In that he has to go further to get what he felt before. The reason is that the brain chuncks information. In addition, to time going faster as you get older your brain chuncks Geography as well. The place you...

Re: Guess the ski area 2012

Le Tour Glacier? Correct ! And I would expect someone with a name such as yours to have an intimate knowledge of the Chamonix valley. . A view from the parking lot of the Le Tour access of Le Tour Balme et Vallorcine Ski Area . . . 7790945786_3d1b0c67b8_c.jpg Interesting angle on that picture. When...

Great shots by the way... Like the view of Casper Bowl. Where are they taken from?
Casper Bowl is not in either picture. It's on the opposite side of the mountain. Your getting a birds eye view of Granite Canyon.

Death Canyon on diffent days. In the Winter the road further up to death Canyon is snowed in. So you have to ski a long way in just to start a steep climb.

Re: Guess the ski area 2012

Corbets, Hour Glass, Horse Shoe. Horse Shoe is definitely 10-15 % steeper then Corbets. Definitely 45 %. You can see it tucked in behind that Triangle shape rock. I hoped you hiked back out. Otherwise it's a long slog out of Granite. You can hike back in bounds and then hike up Peppi's bench and tha...
